I already followed the suggestion you find http://www.eventid.net/display.asp?eventid=2008&eventno=3938&source=NTDS%20SDPROP&phase=1

but it doesn't work...

any suggestion?
thank you very much

It appears (to me) that there are some Security Entries on either the OU named, "u-rail" or "1Area" or both.

I think I'd start with 1Area - there may be a Delegation issue or someone could have removed some needed ACEs.  Check this against another OU that is NOT in this OU tree.

Oops - there are some "BAD" Security Entries ....   missed the word BAD!

Hi Netman66,
thank you very much with your support but I don't understand what I've to check... the permissions?

thank you again!

Nick
Hi Netman66,
I've checked the security on both OU and user and with someone that doesn't create trouble and it's the same.
If you put ADUC into Advanced View, then right click each of those OUs, look at the Security tab and compare them to another OU that in not under the "Aree" OU (not sure if that's a typo on your part).

Hi NetMan66,
I checked again and all the security items are the same... :-(
It's interesting that those links you posted all contain references to Exchange.  Perhaps you should post a Question in the Exchange forum simply linking to this one.  Ping Sembee there, he is the Exchange guru that may be able to help here.

I will also attempt to get him onboard here.

Sit tight.
thanks man... I've posted a new thread in the exchange area...

Hope someone could help me!

I see no references to Exchange in the errors, only in the event ID entry. I would have to disagree that it is connected to Exchange unless there are further errors that tie it to Exchange. This looks like an AD error.

The advice I would give is to call Microsoft. There is very little on this error that I can find, therefore that means it is something unusual. Microsoft can do the one thing that we cannot - and that is look at your actual server. I suspect that there is something wrong with the AD.

Did you take a look at the Event ID link for these?

That's what's got me confused.
I don't know if this will help.

I put on Mozilla thunderbird as my mail client. Then, I created profiles for individual folks that are using Thunderbird. The client then logs on to his/her AD profile using Domain credentials. The domain credentials are not located on the local computer.

So, the email profile that mozilla creates, was created by the domain administrator and the local user can't opent the folder for the email profile. Why, you ask, "because the security descriptor doesn't match the email profile".

All you have to do is this:
Put the AD username and password for this client in the client's list of users. Then, make sure they have permissions for their own email profile folder on the local machine.


Like I say, I don't know if this is your problem. But, it's worth a shot.
I did look at the event ID link that was posted, which was connected to Exchange, but the errors posted above are not.

Simon.
Hello all,
I checked  th chiefIT's suggestion but everything fine...
I'm still without a working solution...

please help me!

Nick
I may have made a mistake on my last, The 'users' will need full permissions on their own email profile and the permissions will need to be passed down to all child objects. Otherwise, the email client software will not work as you wished, if you originally created their profile as an administrator.

Just wante to make sure the idea was passed on in a clear fashion.
Hi ChiefIT, thank you for your answer. The user has full control on his email account...

thank you
