EX5.5 Move Mailbox only works in one direction???
I just added a second exchange 5.5 server to our organization. At first I had it in the lab and just moved my own mailbox to is as a guinea pig. They were both in this building. I then moved my mailbox back to the first server and shipped the second one to a remote office connected by a VPN. At first NAV for exchange wasn't starting due to the changed IP address (they are on a different subnet). I found the old IP in the registry and changed it and now NAV starts. I moved one user right away with no problems but forget which server I did the move on (I remote control the other server). Now today when I tried to move some more users, the progress screen would just flash on the screen for a second and go away. In the event log it just had an ID 1800 error (could not move user doe, john) and no other information or errors. I tried a couple of mailboxes and got the same result (this was on the remote server). I then tried it on the first server and it worked just fine there. Very strange...

Tom, Sounds like a permissions issue, either NT or Exchange. Is the remote office in the same domain as you are? Is the remote office in a different site/organization?

Same organization, same site, same domain, just different "locations" so the inbound and outbound internet mail can be controlled. Both exchange servers services are using the same logon (a domain account). No security events are being logged when this fails, and all security failures are set to log. I sucessfully moved all the accounts for the remote users last Friday by doing it from the first site.

RE: EX5.5 Move Mailbox only works in one direction???
Its across a VPN pipe? 3 letters which will become the bane of your existance. MTU. You're doing one of the operations that sets a Do Not Fragment bit on the packets, yet the VPN tunnels run with smaller a smaller MTU[1]. The IPSec header eats a number of bytes of the packet. Search Technet for MTU size and see if reducting the MTU size on both Exchange servers to 1400 or lower doesn't fix the issue. -- Roger D. Seielstad - MCSE Sr. Systems Administrator Inovis - Formerly Harbinger and Extricity Atlanta, GA [1] Maximum Transmission Unit - the size in bytes of the maximum packet that the pipe can handle. > -Original Message- > From: Alverson, Tom [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Monday, October 07, 2002 2:58 PM > To: Exchange Discussions > Cc: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' > Subject: RE: EX5.5 Move Mailbox only works in one direction??? > > > Same organization, same site, same domain, just different > "locations" so the > inbound and outbound internet mail can be controlled.
