Exchange 2007 administrator password

Dear All,
Our old Admin left the company and now we are unable to login to Exchange 2007 server, We doubt that either he change the password of our exchange 2007 or he has remove exchange 2007 from domain.
We can login to our domain with the admin password but we cannot login to exchange 2007 with the same admin password.
We have 2008 OS installed on Domain and Exchange 2007.
Please help us out..
Regards,
Aamer Ali

You can change the password on the account used for Exchange administration (possibly it was his personal account) and use it for administration.  If this doesn't work, you can add your account to the Exchange Organization Administrators group (in
the Users container) to grant any account admin access to the organization.  This should allow you to administer things.

  • Exchange 2007 rejects password

    I have been using Mail with exchange server 2007 for over a month with no problems. Yesterday the exchange server began rejecting mi password, the password is the right one because I can access the server from my iphone, owa or outlook in a PC.
    I deleted the password from the keychain, deleted and recreated the account, completely deleted all mail accounts from u
    ser/library/mail and recreated all accounts, nothing works.
    I suspect an update to the exchange server released 2 days ago (kb971737 - Extended Protection for Authentication in Microsoft Windows HTTP Services (WinHTTP)).
    Anyone having the same problems or is it just me? ideas on a fix?

    Here's something that cured my problem with the password... MAILBOX LIMIT REACHED!
    I'd forgotten that I'd just received a few emails to say I was within a few MB of my Exchange Mailbox limit. Managed to prune that down to a sensible size using OWA, then right-clicked the Mailbox > Synchronize XXX Exchange Account in Mac Mail. Within seconds normal service restored.
    I've read elsewhere that there's a limit using EWS on how many messages and size of mailbox that Mail can handle, so thought it was time to hack my emails down anyway. Doesn't explain why I could still access via VPN though ...?

  • Exchange 2007 Management shell issue: "There are multiple objects matching the identity "servername" Please specify a unique value"

    I thought this would be an easy answer to an issue I'm facing, but there's a problem executing the solution.
    I'm running Exchange 2007 in a clustered SCC configuration.  The clustered resource is called "DENBURYMAIL."  I want to give my account full mailbox access rights to all the mailboxes in this resource/database.
    I believe I found the solution to this at
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb310792%28EXCHG.80%29.aspx (about halfway down the page) the instructions read as follows: 
    ==============================
     Q: I have a third-party messaging application that requires full access to each user's mailbox. With Exchange Server 5.5, we grant a special account the Service Account Admin permissions, and then tell the application to use this account. How
    can I achieve similar functionality in Exchange 2007?
    A: Exchange 2007 security works differently from that of Exchange Server 5.5. In fact, Exchange 2007 does not use a site service account. Instead, all services start as the local computer account.
    If your logon account is the Administrator account, a member of the root Domain Administrators, a member of the Enterprise Administrators groups, or a member of the Exchange Organization Administrators role, you are explicitly denied access to all mailboxes
    that are not your mailbox, even if you have full administrative rights over the Exchange system. All Exchange 2007 administrative tasks can be performed without having to grant an administrator sufficient rights to read other people's mail.
    You can achieve the results that you want in the following ways, but do so only in accordance with your organization's security and privacy policies:
    In the Exchange Management Shell, use the following command to allow access to all mailboxes on a given mailbox store:
    Add-ADPermission -identity "mailbox database" -user "serviceaccount" -ExtendedRights Receive-As
    =============================
    But when I run the command (Add-ADPermission -identity "denburymail" -user "matthew.fazio" -ExtendedRights Receive-As) I get an error telling me that "There are multiple objects matching the identity "DENBURYMAIL."  Please Specify a unique value."
    I'm not sure what's causing this-- why are there "multiple objects?"  Is this a problem due to operating in a clustered environment?
    Any assistance would be appreciated!

    It may not be specific enough for the command to understand you.
    Try this:
    Get-MailboxDatabase -Server <servername> | Add-ADPermission -user "matthew.fazio" -ExtendedRights Receive-As

  • Remove Exchange 2007

    Hi,
    I just moved all mailboxes from exchange 2007 to Office 365 with Exchange 2010 Hybrid setup. I believe that all local Exchange 2007 contact list and Distribution Group are syncing from Dirsyc tool. It is no migration for this type object. From now, we will
    decide to remove Exchange 2007 from network. What we need to do before to safety remove the Exchange 2007 Server ?
    thanks
    Keith

    Hi Keith,
    Agree with both MAS and Gulab Prasad.
    Please shut down Exchange 2007 and monitor whether the new environment works well.
    Then, please remove Exchange 2007 from a server by using Setup Wizard. Details to see:
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb123893(EXCHG.80).aspx
    (Optional) Last, remove the Exchange 2007 administrative group by using ADSIEdit. The Exchange 2007 administrative group is called
    Exchange Administrative Group (FYDIBOHF23SPDLT)
    Thanks

  • Exchange 2007 to 2013 Migration Outlook Anywhere keeps asking password

    Hi all, 
    i'm migrating an Exchange 2007 Server with all roles installed on a Windows Server 2008 R2 to 2 Exchange 2013 SP1 Servers (1 Cas and 1 Mailbox) installed on Windows Server 2012 R2.
    I installed Exchange 2007 SP3 RU13 for coexistance and everything was ok until i switched to the new 2013 CAS. 
    After that the client using Outlook Anywhere started asking for password. 
    I configured the Outlook Anywhere with these settings:
    Exchange 2007:
    OA Hostname mail.domain.com
    Client Authentication NTLM
    IISAuthenticathion Basic, NTLM
    SSL Required True
    Exchange 2013
    OA Hostname mail.domain.com
    Client Authentication NTLM (Both internal and external)
    IISAuthentication Basic, NTLM
    SSL Required True (both internal and external)
    Before switching to 2013 Cas everything works smoothly and the Outlook clients receive NTLM as HTTP Proxy authentication.
    After switching to 2013 Cas, test users migrated on 2013 Mailbox Server are ok, but Outlook users on Exchange 2007 Server get Basic as HTTP Proxy authentication and continue asking for credentials. 
    In the Exchange 2007 server i configured the host file to resolve servername and servername.domain.local with the ipv4 address to avoid issues regarding IPv6 with OA in Exchange 2007. 
    Using Microsoft Connectivity Test i receive the error "RPC Proxy can't be pinged - The remote server returned an error:
    (500) Internal Server Error"
    Any Ideas?
    Thanks for your Help

  • IMAP Exchange 2007 & Password Issue

    Anybody else having trouble with getting the IMAP 2007 Exchange account to hold a password?
    When I set account up, it downloads my email to Mail but then keeps asking me for the password and doesn't show it in the account.
    Only way I can get my email from it is to delete and recreate account.????

    I have the same problem. I am using nhs.net. I can have mail open for hours and then it just starts rejecting my password, requiring me to get my account reset (nhs.net automatically logs you out after 3 failed attempts). nhs.net does use Exchange 2007. When it happened today I noticed it was shortly after I had opened addressbook, I cannot remember whether the other times this has happened it is after opening addressbook.
    However on looking in addressbook preferences I notice there are 2 exchange settings for nhs.net giving me 2 nhs.net addressbooks - each with a different server depending on whether I connect from within the network or from outside the network. The same is true of ical, but not mail. Why is this so - does this have something to do with the problem i.e the password is only getting updated in one so that the other is returning the old password and getting me logged out?

  • Outlook 2007 now requires administrator password to open

    I have been using office 2007 since 2007 and this has never occurred. Now when I open Outlook, as a Standard User it asks for my Administrator Password. When I am logged on to my other account which has Administrator privileges and a password, Outlook
    opens right up and the User Account dialog doesn't appear. This doesn't happen when I open Word; it is specific to Outlook.
    I don't know how this happened and I don't know how to correct it.
    When I am logged in as the Standard User:
    Under Properties, Shortcut tab, Advanced,  Run as Administrator is grayed out and not checked.
    In the Compatibility Tab, in the Privilege Level section, Run this program as an administrator
    IS CHECKED but grayed out. But when I click on
    Change settings for all users in the Compatibility tab (I am asked for my Admin password) I see that the
    Run as Administrator box is unchecked there (not grayed out). I have tried checking it, clicking on Apply and then unchecking it and clicking on apply again but the checked, Grayed out box in the Privilege Level section remains
    checked.
    In the Security Tab, Everyone, SYSTEM, Administrators, and both my Standard User and Administrator account have all privileges. I have tried changing the Owner from the Administrator account to the Standard User Account and back again with no effect.
    When I am logged in as the user with Administrative Privileges:
    As I said, Outlook opens right up without the User Account dialog appearing (no password security check).
    In Properties, under the Compatibility Tab, in the Privilege Level section,
    Run this program as an administrator
    IS NOT CHECKED.
    Does anyone know how to fix this? There must be a way to either change this in Policies or while logged in as Administrator. The box in the Standard User account needs to be "un-grayed" so that it can be unchecked.

    This forum you have posted in is "where is" forum for direction on where best to ask a question. I cannot move your question to "answers" forum so you will need to re-ask over there where the outlook 2007 experts hang out.

  • Exchange 2007 not accepting my password

    I am having problems setting up Mail.app to connect to Exchange 2007, everytime i logon it says that Exchange has rejected my password.
    I am fairly sure that autodiscover is turned on as when i type in my email address it finds the server and settings, so don't think thats the problem, also the server is on Rollup 9 which exceeds the rollup 4 required.
    Has anyone encountered similar problems, or got any suggestions as to what else i can check/try as this is soooooooo frustrating!!!
    Justin
    PS: i have tried changing my password and that doesn't work!

    There are a lot of Mac users at my company. I've done an informal poll of those who have upgraded to Snow Leopard and are trying Mail connected to Exchange 2007. This appears to be a common problem for those I've spoken to unless the user is connected to the VPN. Besides the continuous password prompts my co-workers also complained of slow or sporadic mail synchronization.
    I should also note that our mail admins have configured Exchange 2007 for RPC over HTTPS and that Outlook 2007 configured to use "Outlook Anywhere."
    Again, if connected to the corporate network via VPN the repeated password prompts do not appear.
    I called Apple back after reading the updated posts to this thread. The support technician said that they were going to search their internal KB to see if there is a "master ticket" covering this issue since it appears to affect many people from around the world. I also directed them to this thread for their reference. I'm expecting a call back later today with an update on their findings. Let's see what they come back to me with.

  • Exchange 2007 Mail issue, server rejecting password

    Hi all.
    We have installed Exchange 2007 server today and configured it and all windows clients and iPhones. windows clients on normal RPC settings and laptops on RPC over HTTP.
    Webmail has also been configured which works fine with a trusted root certificate. webmail works fine in safari also.
    we have a problem configuring Mail on two SL macbooks. when running the setup and entering the password the client app comes back repeatedly and says 'The Exchange 2007 server “exchange.domain.co.uk” rejected the password for user “username” '
    i have tried this on both machines and im kind of stuck since the exchange server is fully function for all other devices.
    For info, the exchange server is on SP1 rollup 9. running on windows server 2008 R2 x64
    i changed the outgoing server field to be the internal IP just to check and i get the prompt for the SSL (obviously since the SSL does not include the IP. i click to import and accept which it does but i still get my password rejected.
    Any ideas?

    Seems like an issue with a December update. I found the following info that basically tells you to go to IIS SSL settings for the OWA (and related sites) and change the client to "accept certificate". It worked for me so hopefully this will help someone else.
    The following text was found on:
    http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en/exchangesvrgeneral/thread/383d130e -869f-4fce-9502-8b340904b0ba
    EDIT: Found a fix for me potentially via - http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/exchangesvrdeploy/thread/c1e72d 2a-d360-4ff0-b2f5-1a9ae149df18 and http://www.microsoft.com/communities/newsgroups/list/en-us/default.aspx?dg=micro soft.public.exchange.admin&mid=00d4a681-f588-4eed-b4f8-5c3645e7376c&sloc=en-us
    I had an issue similar to this. Win2k3 Ex07. All of my Outlook 2007
    users were getting prompted over and over for the username and
    password. It wasn't checking the certificate that they had installed
    via internet explorer. To fix the problem, I opened IIS on the
    Exchange server and checked the following directories under the
    default website (the root site(default web site), oab, autodiscover).
    Under the directory security tab, click Edit in the Secure
    Communications section. I had the require SSL checked and the 128bit
    encryption, but under Client Certificates, it was set to ignore. Once
    I changed that to Accept for each of the folders, stopped and started
    IIS, I stopped being prompted all the time for credentials. Hopefully
    this will help someone in the future.
    Just confirmed fixed for client!!!

  • Exchange 2007 to 2013 Migration issues. Prompt for credentials, Public Folders inaccessible, Apps not working

    Exchange 2013 Migration issues
    I have three issues and decided to list them here. Please pick and choose to assist. Thanks in advance.
    Environment:
    Mixed 2007 SP3 R12 and 2013 CU3. 2007 Environment was webmail.domain.com. I installed new Exchange 2013 (1 CAS, 1 Mailbox) according to:
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff805032(v=exchg.150).aspx. Exchange 2007 is now legacy.domain.com and Exchange 2013 CAS is webmail.domain.com.
    Machine 1: Windows 8.1, not domain joined, using Outlook Anywhere external. Outlook 2013
    Machine 2: Windows 7, domain joined, using Outlook Anywhere internal. Outlook 2010 SP2
    I have migrated 1 user so far to Exchange 2013. This user was a Domain Admin. I have removed that membership. I checked the box to inherit permissions of the security of the object and reset the AdminCount attribute in ADSIedit to 0 and verified this replicated
    to all domain controllers. ( I originally thought this to be the issue with it prompting for the password. )

    ISSUE 1
    Issue: On Machine 1 (reference above) Windows Security prompt that says "Connecting to
    [email protected]". Almost always prompts when Outlook is first opened. Afterwards (if it goes away) seemingly random on when it asks for it. I put in the credentials (absolutely correct) and it fails and prompts again.
    I always check the box for it to save the password. To get rid of it, I click the Cancel button at which Outlook reports "NEED PASSWORD", but still acts fine sending and receiving emails. Eventually the "NEED PASSWORD" sometimes changes
    to say "CONNECTED", but it works regardless.
    No issues on Machine 2 so I don't know where the problem might be as there are a lot of variables in play here.
    ISSUE 2
    Migrated user is unable to open Public folders from Exchange 2007.
    Cannot expan the folder. Microsoft Exchange is not available. Either there are network problems or the Exchange server is down for maintenance. (/o=...).
    This error occurs on Machine 1, Machine 2 and from OWA, same error each time.
    ISSUE 3
    Apps. Installed by default are 4 apps (Bing Maps, Suggested Meetings, Unsubscribe, Action Items). I have made sure the apps are enabled in OWA and they show up in mail items on both Machine 1 (Outlook 2013) and OWA. They do not show up in Machine 2 (Outlook
    2010). I'm assuming that isn't supported.
    In OWA, when I go to the installed apps listing it shows all of the apps but has a broken link on the image describing the app.
    When I click the app in either Outlook 2013 or in OWA, I get "APP ERROR, Sorry we can't load the app. Please make sure you have network and/or internet connectivity. Click "Retry" once you're back online.
    Current workaround is just disabling them through OWA.

    Hello,
    In order to avoid confusion, we troubleshoot a issue per thread usually.
    For your first isue, I agree with Ed's suggestion to check if your certificate name is correct.
    Besides, I recommend you change ExternalClientAuthenticationMethod from Basic authentication to Negotiate authentication to check the result.

  • Is there a problem using CFPOP in CF MX 7 with Exchange 2007?

    We have a scheduled task that checks a mailbox and, depending
    on the request, responds to the sender with information from our
    contact database. It has worked fine for several years using CF MX
    7 Standard and MS Exchange 2000. We just changed to MS Exchange
    2007 and we get an error as follows: "Logon failure: unknown user
    name or bad password." We can access the mailbox directly from
    Exchange using the account and password, so we think we are passing
    the correct information (example below).
    <CFPOP ACTION="GetHeaderOnly" SERVER="192.168.1.15"
    USERNAME="testaccount" PASSWORD="testpassword" NAME="getMail">
    Is there something we're missing? We are certain that the IP,
    account and password are still correct. We have assigned this mail
    server to the Mail tab in CF Administrator and it can see it and
    route CFMAILs through it.
    Any help is appreciated.

    We discovered that Exchange 2007 has five specific steps that
    have to occur in a particular order for CFPOP to resume working
    properly. We did this (despite several security issues) because
    this function is strictly internal. Not recommended for an
    application available to the general public.
    Steps for making Exchange 2007 work for CFPOP:
    1) Start the POP service on the Exchange 2007 server.
    2) Allow the necessary email accounts to use POP3.
    3) Lower the security requirements on those accounts to allow
    CF to send clear text instead of encrypted (SSL) requests to POP3.
    4) Set the Exchange server to allow relay.
    5) Lower the security requirements for relay.
    I hope I explained this correctly. This is how my network
    supervisor explained it to me.

  • Installing Exchange 2007 on a Windows Server 2008

    Hello I am new to the Microsoft forum and I have a quick question and please let me know if im posting my question in the wrong place. Im doing a school project were you have two servers with Windows Server 2008 installed on them. The first server suppose
    to have Active directory and domain services followed by dns which I did. The second server which I just found out suppose to have installed Netframework 3.0, Wpa and Desktop experience roles then install Microsoft Exchange 2007. Well my issue is when I try
    to install exchange on my second server it keeps giving me a error message saying my Active directory cannot be contacted or may not exist and that my second server has the wrong security credentials. I've taken the steps that Microsoft has advise by checking
    my domain. Which I used the command Dcdiag.exe on my first server and it saids the domain is able to be contacted. Also when I joined my second domain I made sure to put the domain name of the first server in all caps followed by /Administrator and my password
    and it said welcome to the domain. So has anybody run into that type of error message when trying to install exchange 2007 on a separate server? Lastly forget to include I also have web server IIS installed on the second server as well. Exchange is then asking
    for IIS 7.0 ? So any tips or troubleshooting would be helpful since my professor wasn't much a help and I gotta turn this lab stuff in by next week.
    thanks gmoney38

    Not sure I  need to check that through the dns is working far as ive seen in the server manager . Because I remember before I did this one command for the dns and it said something was wrong with the host A record. So I went through the hierarchy of
    windows to that file and opened it up through the notepad it showed  my loopback ip address 127.0.0.1 and localhost and not my domain name which I choose contoso01.com so from a previous forum I read if you change the localhost name to that domain name
    that it would help but im not sure if this would in my case. Thanks for answering my question Mr. Ed but I still need some more help through!
    gmoney38 ps plus im using vmware for this project to have the two servers i wonder if this is why im having issues!
