Exchange 2010 / Office 365 - Public Folders in Hybrid

HI,

We are trying to get PF to sync in hybrid mode (Exchange 2010 and Office 365) and I am following this nonsense

http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dn249373(v=exchg.150).aspx

Down near the end (and at my wits end with this rubbish it says)

Set-OrganizationConfig -PublicFoldersEnabled Remote -RemotePublicFolderMailboxes ProxyMailbox1,ProxyMailbox2,ProxyMailbox3

The actual command I am running is

Set-OrganizationConfig -PublicFoldersEnabled Remote -RemotePublicFolderMailboxes cloudpf

(called the proxy mailbox cloudpf)

From Exchange 2010 Server (Exchange powershell) it spits this out

Cannot process argument transformation on parameter 'ActivityBasedAuthenticationTimeoutEnabled'. Cannot convert value "
System.String" to type "System.Boolean", parameters of this type only accept booleans or numbers, use $true, $false, 1
or 0 instead.
+ CategoryInfo : InvalidData: (:) [Set-OrganizationConfig], ParameterBindin...mationException
+ FullyQualifiedErrorId : ParameterArgumentTransformationError,Set-OrganizationConfig

Any help appreciated please, so very tired of Office365 and the total mess it is.

Regards,
IanR

Can you advise what you ran to fix this? When I run
Get-OrganizationConfig | fl ActivityBasedAuthenticationTimeoutEnabled
It returns true

When I run the commands seperatley it returns the same error each time

ro ho

hey John, it may happend because you are executing those commands from the EMS.

action:
EMS >> Remove-PSSession $Session ( in order to finish the current remote-session)
open a new Windows Pshell and re-establish your remote-connection to the O365
split the command as already suggested by Vasil in 2 parts and you're done! :)

if something still getting wrong, you can use start-transcript (for logging) and -debug / -verbose for deeper troubleshooting scopes

Hi all, I am going through the exact same process with our environment and followed instructions from https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dn249373(v=exchg.160).aspx

However, when I get to run Set-OrganizationConfig -RemotePublicFolderMailboxes PFMailbox1 I get the error below:

We're running the following config:
2x 2010 Exchange Server (DAG)
1x 2016 Exchange Server (CAS + Hybrid connector to O365)
Public Folders are sitting on Exchange 2010
