Did you also create a Host (A) DNS record for your im server in the domain.com zone? e.g.
host.domain.com IN A 10.111.111.111 You may not need the rvp record unless you are entering [EMAIL PROTECTED] in the IM client logon. In which case what does your rvp record look like? -----Original Message----- From: Jonathan [mailto:jwright@;spectore.com] Sent: 04 November 2002 15:55 To: Exchange Discussions Subject: Instant Messaging Troubleshooting I have installed the Instant Messaging Service onto Exchange 2000 and I have not been successful with connecting using the IM client. Here are the configurations that I've used. - 1 Exchange 2000 server. - 2 DC's with Active Directory Intergrated Zone (dynamic) - Created a SRV record host.domain.com using _rvp - Created a new Virtual Server in E2K using DNS Name: host.domain.com and IIS description: domain.com - Exchange 2000- Instant Messaging Settings (Firewall Topology tab is setup with IP address 192.168.20.2 - 192.168.20.220 and HTTP Firewall Proxy UN-selected - The Default SMTP Virtual Server in E2K is assigned the IP address of the Physical server 192.168.20.5 not the two virtual server IP addresses listed. - Enable users in AD from exchange. - Installed the client software. My IIS setup has two addition virtual servers. domain.com (has the InsMsg folder installed) domain2.com (nothing) Default Site (Is running no InsMsg folder installed) I doubled-checked the NNTP, SMTP, HTTP protocols were running correctly. I'm able to send emails through E2K. Problem: Whenever I run Instant Messenger it gives me the error: "Exchange Instant Message Sign-In failure. The person logged on to this computer does not have permission to use this specified email address. Please type your email address and password. Email: Username: Password: Domain: " I'm logged in correctly "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" and as said before I can use my Outlook to send an email via E2K and it works fine. I'm not using a proxy server. Is there anything else I should be looking for? It's been a couple of days and I haven't been successful with this setup.
