Exchange account credentials doesn't work
Hello,
I have Exchange 2007 and all existing email is working fine. I have added a new employee within ADUC and filled in email account and user info. I then went to Exchange Management Console and added a new email account and account was added successfully. I'm doing this procedure the same way I have always done it. Now, when I go to users outlook and select add New Email Account, I notice it Auto Account Setup and I hit next. When I hit next it successfully Esablishes network connection, successfully searches email server settings, however when it gets to Log on server a box pops up asking for credentials. I put in the credentials and it doesn't do anything except ask me for credentials again.
Thanks,
Jaime Campos

I checked the Exchange Event Viewer and this is what I saw....
Process STORE.EXE (PID=4564). Exchange Active Directory Provider
failed to obtain an IP address for DS server fileserver.RAPA.local, error 11001
(WSAHOST_NOT_FOUND (Host was not found)). This host will not be used as a DS server
by Exchange Active Directory Provider.
Process STORE.EXE (PID=4564). Exchange Active Directory Provider is unable to connect to the
Domain Controller fileserver.RAPA.local although its service location (SRV) resource record
was found in the DNS
The query was for the SRV record for _ldap._tcp.dc._msdcs.RAPA.
The following domain controllers were identified by the query:
fileserver.rapa.local
fileserver2.rapa.local
Common causes of this error include:
- Host (A) records that map the name of the domain controller to its IP addresses are
missing or contain incorrect addresses.
- Domain controllers registered in DNS are not connected to the network or are not running.
For information about correcting this problem, type in the command line:
hh tcpip.chm::/sag_DNS_tro_dc
Now, Fileserver was an old DNS/DC server. It's still on the network, but I thought Exchange was using Fileserver2, which is our new DC/DNS.
