RE: Outlook Login problem
If it is an adminsdholder issue, you'll need to go into the account and manually set the admincount property back to 0, or you have the problem show up again. Adding someone to an admin group increments this, but removing them doesn't decrement it. That property is what AD uses to determine who does and doesn't get the adminsdholder permissions forced, and if you don't set it back to 0, AD will still keep trying to apply them, even though they aren't an admin any more. -Original Message- From: Troy Meyer [mailto:troy.me...@monacocoach.com] Sent: Thursday, February 12, 2009 10:14 AM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: Outlook Login problem Good to hear its working, you and Rob must have been on the right trail with the adminsdholder idea.

Re: Outlook Login problem
I've seen OWA issues when any of these are true: 1. The domain account was not completely configured correctly. For example, UPN field was not populated. 2. When I checked the mailbox in PowerShell, it said it was a LegacyMailbox (on Exchange 2007). Have to apply the security settings on the mailbox to convert it. 3. When the Associated External Account permission is set to another account than the one they are logging in (to OWA) with. They can have mailbox permissions and open Outlook, but OWA won't allow them in.

Sorry, my fault. I feel like I am going a 100mph in circles right now. My wife is due with our baby boy in 3 weeks, but she is calling saying she is having contractions.

RE: Outlook Login problem
I managed to discover something interesting relating to this. Our CEO is a member of the Domain Admins group, it is his call and I have argued against it to no avail. I gave the group Domain Admins Full access to his mailbox and all of sudden I can login to his account using Outlook. My guess now is the permissions on his mailbox are fubar. Any suggestions? I am going to continue following this path later tonight.

Check that the inherit permissions in the security tab has not been unchecked for some reason. Good luck with the baby.

RE: Outlook Login problem
I haven't run into this issue before, and from this article it makes it sound like adminsdholder would apply mainly for inheriting specific AD permissions (not affecting default perms on a mailbox). http://msmvps.com/blogs/ulfbsimonweidner/archive/2005/05/29/49659.aspx AND I agree with Rob that it would affect OWA as well if it were permission based. A couple tests: 1) Temporarily remove user from AD domain admin group, any delegated perms should now apply (proves permission theory) 2) Remove mailbox from account and create new mailbox for account. If Outlook now works its related to content in the mailbox. Unlink the new mailbox and link the old one back, open up OWA clean out all the $#%@ that was delivered in the last two days.

RE: Outlook Login problem
I went through the account and found that Inherit from parent permissions was not checked on his account. I checked the box, forced replication, refreshed the screen and checked his account again. The box was unchecked. Next I went with test 1, removed him from the domain admins group, checked the Inherit from parent permissions box, forced replication and checked the security again. This time the Inherit from parent permissions stuck. I logged into mailbox without issue after that. Hopefully we have killed 2 birds with one stone. The mailbox is accessible again and the user can be removed from the domain admin group. Well it looks like our baby will be waiting for another day.
