Sharath, if you use the code posted here against one user, does it do what you need?

Regards,

Rob.

Rob this is for OMA (Outlook Mobile access) but i need for Outlook Web Access. (OWA)

Sharath, see if this works for one particular test user, defined by the Set objUser line....

'==================
Const ADS_PROPERTY_CLEAR = 1
Const ADS_PROPERTY_UPDATE = 2
Const ADS_PROPERTY_APPEND = 3
Const ADS_PROPERTY_DELETE = 4

Set objRootDSE = GetObject("LDAP://RootDSE")
Set objUser = GetObject("LDAP://CN=TestUser,OU=Users,OU=TestOU," & objRootDSE.Get("defaultNamingContext"))
For Each protocolSettings in ObjUser.GetEx("protocolSettings")
      If Left(protocolSettings, 4) = "HTTP" Then
            objUser.PutEx ADS_PROPERTY_DELETE, "protocolSettings", Array(protocolSettings)
            objUser.SetInfo
      End If

objUser.PutEx ADS_PROPERTY_APPEND, "protocolSettings", Array("HTTP§0§1§§§§§§")

Please make sure your objUser path is correct.  You must have the comma after the last OU, and the CN should be the display name (usually).

Rob.

Yes Rob i left the , off..Now it looks like below

Set objUser = GetObject("LDAP://CN=Sharath Remi,OU=Named,OU=User Accounts,OU=Countries," & objRootDSE.Get("defaultNamingContext"))

Still get this error..

Is your test user enabled for any protocols in the Exchange Features tab (apparently Web Access is enabled by the settings for HTTP and NNTP)?

Regards,

Rob.

Yes Rob for "Sharath Remi," the OWA is enabled with the default protocols.

What about this:

'==================
Const ADS_PROPERTY_CLEAR = 1
Const ADS_PROPERTY_UPDATE = 2
Const ADS_PROPERTY_APPEND = 3
Const ADS_PROPERTY_DELETE = 4

objSettings = objUser.GetEx("protocolSettings")
If IsArray(objSettings) = True Then
      For Each protocolSettings In objSettings
            If Left(protocolSettings, 4) = "HTTP" Then
                  objUser.PutEx ADS_PROPERTY_DELETE, "protocolSettings", Array(protocolSettings)
                  objUser.SetInfo
            End If

Yes Rob this works great.Need to expand this for many users...

Is john a valid LoginName on the Dev domain?

Yes they are

Rob i am mentioning the Firstname and Lastname in the txt file one per line.

Oh...I thought they were NTLogin names:
>> I have a txt file in which i have the Nt logins of users

Oh well, if you have the Display Name in the file, change this bit:
      strLogin = objInputFile.ReadLine
      strNTName = objNetwork.UserDomain & "\" & strLogin
      strObjectType = "user" ' Can be "user", "group", or "computer"
      strInputFormat = "NTLoginName" ' Can be "NTLoginName" or "DisplayName"
      strUserDN = Get_DistinguishedName_From_AD(strNTName, strObjectType, strIntputFormat)

to this:
      strDisplayName = objInputFile.ReadLine
      strObjectType = "user" ' Can be "user", "group", or "computer"
      strInputFormat = "DisplayName" ' Can be "NTLoginName" or "DisplayName"
      strUserDN = Get_DistinguishedName_From_AD(strDisplayName, strObjectType, strIntputFormat)

I really wanted for a NTlogin..
In the first single user script i had to mention the firstname and lastname. So i thought it would be the same..

I did the changes and tried but i get this message..

Worked great on my login name and even retested it now..For others it does not work...
Firstname and lastname for my login it disable OWA access...

NT Login should be fine.  Use the script posted in ID: 20774931, with your NT login name only in the text file, and it should disable the OWA for you.

The only reason we specified your full name in the CN= part of the manual query, is because the display name is what is required when connecting directly to an LDAP object like that.  When you want to use the NT Login name, we need to use a search function, which I have inlcluded in the other script.

Try it out with your NT Login, it should find your Distinguished Name.

Rob.

Hmmm, that's the error you got the first time, and is why I've just read that protocolSettings is only available on Exchange 2000.  So it's getting the user object fine, it just can't modify those settings....I'll have to find something more reliable for Exchange 2003.....off to Google I go.... ;-P

Rob this works for OMA but not OWA

OK, I've done some research, but can't test this, so see how you go.

Basically, from here:

Rob i get a Done box but no change on the users OWA its still enabled.May be it needs time to replicate...

Rob only my login got disabled and when trying to enable i get this message...

---------------------------
Microsoft Active Directory - Exchange Extension
---------------------------
The specified directory service attribute or value already exists.

What do you mean "when trying to enable"?  Are you trying to re-enable it for yourself via the User Interface?  I'm not sure why you wouldn't be able to re-enable it, but try the script again, but change this
 objUser.PutEx ADS_PROPERTY_APPEND, "protocolSettings", Array(conExInetOWAon)
to this
 objUser.PutEx ADS_PROPERTY_APPEND, "protocolSettings", Array(conExInetOWAoff)

and see if that enables it.

Regards,

Rob.

Yes Rob i tryed to enable through ADUC but after changing the code also i get the same error.

Can you remove the OWA protocol, then re-add it?

Regards,

Rob.

If you still can't do that, download ADSI Edit from here:
http://www.computerperformance.co.uk/ScriptsGuy/adsi.zip

extract it to your C:\Windows\System32 folder, run
regsvr32 adsiedit.dll

then run
adsiedit.msc

BE CAREFUL WITH THIS.  ONLY EDIT THE ATTRIBUTE YOU WANT TO EDIT.

On the left, go through DOMAIN --> DC=groups,DC=co,DC=uk --> then browse through your OUs until you get to your CN account.
Right-click your CN=Sharath Remi account, and click Properties.
On the "Attribute Editor" tab, scroll down and double-click on protocolSettings
Click any HTTP entry, and click Remove, then click OK, and close ADSIEdit.

Now, hopefully, you can go back to your account in the ordinary ADUC and re-enable OWA.

Regards,

Rob.

Rob i did as said through ADSIEDIT and it got enabled....

OK, that's great.....so we're back as square one, I suppose, after finding out that disabling it via a script doesn't really work.

Just to clarify, after fixing the issue by using ADSIEdit, are you able to enable and disable OWA normally via the ADUC console?  If so, then great.  As I don't have Exchange, and can't see the protocolSettings property, can I get you to enable OWA, use ADSIEdit to browse to the protocolSettings attribute and take a screenshot of the values in it.  Then, disable OWA from ADUC, and take another screenshot in ADSIEdit, then, remove the OWA protocol completely via ADUC and take another screenshot of ADSIEdit.  I would like to see what the values do after these changes.

Regards,

Rob.

Yes now i am able to disable and enable normally.
I did as mentioned but enabled or disabled i have the same position
Disable and Enabled its the same...
ScreenShot027.jpg

Really?  That's odd.  From what I've read, disabled should be:
HTTP§0§1§§§§§§
and enabled should be:
HTTP§1§1§§§§§§

Note the zero and one difference.  Maybe there's another setting.....

Rob.

Sorry the 1 and 0 was a small change and i did not notice it so specificallt.Yes they change.


ScreenShot029.jpg

Rob will this disable the OWA access?
I just ran it.Got a Done box.Just giving it some time to replicate if required...
I have mentioned the NTlogin in the txt file.Is that right?

Oh, whoops.  Actually, that would "enable" OWA, to "disable" it, change this:
            If strSettings = "" Then
                  strSettings = conExInetOWAon
            Else
                  strSettings = strSettings & ";" & conExInetOWAon
            End If

to this:
            If strSettings = "" Then
                  strSettings = conExInetOWAoff
            Else
                  strSettings = strSettings & ";" & conExInetOWAoff
            End If


I had "on" there, instead of "off".

Regards,

Rob.

Thanks Rob...
