Liam, hello again :)

What all is on the CAS?
CAS,hub,mbx?

Did you delete anything or change things in IIS?

what all has been done to this box?

 

by: paadminPosted on 2007-08-03 at 09:02:46ID: 19626207

Hey Brian,

We have jsut one exchange 2007 server and all roles are installed on that. We do not have an edge transport server.

I do not believe that I deleted anything in IIS but during the course of the last few weeks, we have changed quite a few settings to get, activesync,autodisover and everything else...

Everything appears to be working perfectly now except forms based auth..

Thanks agian for your help, this is kind of a lower priority for me but I'd love to get it working..

Thanks
Liam

This happened to me. Turned out after I botched a modification to login.asp in c:\Program Files\Exchsrvr\exchweb\bin\auth\usa I copied back in a backup copy I had made. This screwed up the security permissions. Go to the security settings on the auth directory and under advanced reset the permissions on the child objects.
