We need to sync the
machine password for authentication purpose because the DR machine is not a
part of production AD domain. We have to sync the password so that Kerberos
authentication work properly (Kerberos is not working when the password do not
match). So whenever there is a password changes on Production exchange we sync
it immediately. We do not sync the
machine SID. From:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Deji Akomolafe I do not have a solution for your issues.
I am just curious. Why do you NEED the password? Why is it important for you to
set the same password on your DR box? So, the real exchange server dies, you bring in your DR box
and have it impersonate the real one? Is this why? Is this to eliminate the
need to have to Again, just curious.
From: I am trying to read
the machine password from exchange server (Windows 2003 R2 Standard + SP1,
Exchange 2003 +SP2). I have tried some other tools also (like lsadump) but they
all are failing to read it. We are working on
Exchange DR solution- so we need to import the machine password from production
exchange server and we set the same password on our DR box. The same function is
working on windows 2000 and windows 2003 in same domain. But its failing on
Windows 2003 R2. From:
