 Hello

 We are trying to run a power shell command line to create a mailbox and it
 fails with the error below.

 network

 xyz.com = root of the forest ( Exchange installed )
 pri.xyz.com - child domain ( Users )

 abc-dc-01.xyz.com - DC in the root of the forest.
 pri-dc-01.pri.xyz.com - dc in child domain.

 When we enable a use for a mailbox manually using the GUI it works fine.
 But if we use the same command as mentioned below and enable a mailbox it
 fails with the error below..


 --
  The operation couldn't be performed because object '
 pri.xyz.com/PAS/Users/mugga' couldn't be found on 'ABC-DC-01.xyz.com'.
  + CategoryInfo  : NotSpecified: (0:Int32) [Enable-Mailbox],

 Enable-Mailbox -Identity 'pri.xyz.com/PAS/Users/mugga' -Alias 'mugga'
 -Database 'MBX1 DB'

 Can someone please help...

 It seems it is defaulting to the local domain and hence cannot find the
 user...So it seems that I need to add some more to the command so exchange
 would see the remote child domain for the use before it tries to enable the
 mailbox...

 Any help will be greatly apprecaited.

 cheers

 Joss

Add the parameter -Domaincontroller pri-dc-01.pri.xyz.com to your 
enable-mailbox command...
