Outlook Clients for Exchange 2013 Prompt for Password
I have a co-existence of versions 2007 and Exchange Server 2013 CU2 and currently have the following problem:
- Customers now where I performed the migration to the 2013 version, when starting Outlook is always asking for password. The settings for Outlook Anywhere are as follows:
RunspaceId : b43cd829-a81f-4b00-bb4d-73389c9df50d
ServerName : EXCH-HTCA13
SSLOffloading : False
ExternalHostname : webmail.first.pt
InternalHostname : exch-htca13.first.pt
ExternalClientAuthenticationMethod : Basic
InternalClientAuthenticationMethod : Ntlm
IISAuthenticationMethods : {Basic, Ntlm, Negotiate}
XropUrl :
ExternalClientsRequireSsl : True
InternalClientsRequireSsl : True
Can anyone help me identify the problem?
Hi,
Agree with Andy,you can change the ExternalClientAuthenticationMethod to NTLM,
In addition, I recommend you refer to the following article:
Users Constantly Prompted for Credentials after Being Migrated to Exchange 2013

So we have an Exchange 2013 environment, and a CRM solution that requires basic authentication to EWS internally. Problem is, after a reboot of our Exchange server, all of our Outlook clients begin prompting for username and password (which nothing
works) which also starts locking users AD accounts out due to failed login attempts (somehow). If I disabled basic authentication on EWS, Outlook authenticates as normal using NTLM and there are no issues. Once Outlook has authenticated, I can
turn back on basic authentication, and Outlook will be fine until the next time the Exchange server is rebooted.
Any ideas?Hi,
According to your description, I understand that Outlook client prompted for username and password when Exchange server restart and basic authentication is enabled for EWS.
If I misunderstand your concern, please do not hesitate to let me know.
It’s normal. This caused by the difference between basic authentication and NTML authentication:
Basic, with any version of Outlook prior to 2010, results in a pop up dialog asking for creds. Outlook 2010 makes the 'save this password' actually work, so in an Outlook 2010 or later world, Basic can mean no need to authenticate every time you open/reconnect,
but in all earlier versions, you will have to enter creds every time.
NTLM, when used by a client that is domain joined and logged in with cached creds, results in the client simply sending the cached in creds to the server, resulting in what looks like a pretty seamless single sign on experience. However, if you want to do pre-authentication
at something like TMG, and not let the traffic go all the way to CAS, you need to configure TMG for this.

I have changed the home server in [ServiceEGS] and [Service1] with the CAS Array VIP configured with the DNS name
autodiscoverservices.exchange.xxxx.xx but it is not working and getting "Exchange server unavailable" error. Some one have any idea how to
configure the user outlook profile via a prf file which works with exchange server 2013 autodiscover services. Is there any more settings to be applied to the PRF file to make it work.

Configuring IIS and DNS for Exchange 2013 running on Second Win2012 R2 Server
Hi Folks,
I have a Windows 2012 R2 Server with Essentials role and I'm running a Hyper-V instance of Windows 2012 R2 with Exchange 2013 installed joined to domain. I have been through the wizards and the Exchange Server deployment wizard but I'm stuck with configuring
DNS records correctly.
Currently I can browse to https://remote.contoso.com externally and internally which works as expected but not https://remote.contoso.com/owa or any other Exchange pages. All I get is 404 - File or directory not found. However if I browse
internally to https://exchangeserver.domain.local/owa it works. So I'm guessing 404 is coming from the DC server not the exchange server. Hence I think its DNS.
Although I have noticed that IIS is on the DC and the Exchange server, showing different Sites. Does this have anything to do with the issue at hand. Also the guides are not perfectly clear on how to add the DNS CNAME records.
Would someone be so kind as to point me in the right direction.
Thank youHi Jatin,
It turned out to be a little more involved in the end. I had to call Microsoft in the end. ARRconfig wasn't running correctly and after creating a new certificate it was able to run successfully. I'm waiting for the detailed report which
will hopefully explain the issue with Bindings between the two IIS on Essentials and Exchange 2013 which was also and issue.
Then I had an issue trying to connect Outlook clients to Exchange. The resolution for this was:
Created new SAN certificate with issued to name as “mail.pinewoodonline.co.uk” using the CA server
OutlookProvider EXCH and EXPR value was not set
Set OutlookProvider EXCH and EXPR value as “msstd:mail.pinewoodonline.co.uk” by running the below command
Set-OutlookProvider EXPR -Certprincipalname msstd:mail.pinewoodonline.co.uk
Set-OutlookProvider EXCH -CertPrincipalName msstd:mail.pinewoodonline.co.uk
All seems good now. I will post the report as soon as I get it. This took 6 hours on the phone to Microsoft. Wasn't easy.
Thanks

Exchange 2013 DNS for internal and external domain
Hi All,
I have been assigned a task to implement Microsoft Exchange Server 2013. I need some help in setting up DNS namespaces and design a strategy to have same internal and external names. Let me share some details here.
We have an Active Directory domain myinternaldomain.net, and we have a public domain
mypublicdomain.com and we have setup email policy to have
mypublicdomain.com as the SMTP domain for all the users. We have created another DNS zone in Active directory integrated DNS and created a records for
mail.mypublicdomain.com and autodiscover.mypublicdomain.com which will point to CAS NLB IP. We have 2 CAS servers and 2 MBX servers, we have configured DAG for MBX High availability and planning to implement WNLB for CAS as
hardware LB is out of scope due to budget constrains.
We want to have same URLs for OWA, Autodiscover, ECP and other services from internal network as well as from public network. Users should not be bothered to remember two URLs, using one from internal and other from public networks. I also want to confirm
that with this setup in place do i need to have myinternaldomain.net and server names in SAN certificate?
ThanksHi Sccmnb,
You can easily achieve this using split DNS.
Internal DNS hostname "mail.mypublicdomain.com" will be pointing to your internal CAS NLB IP and the external public DNS hostname"mail.mypublicdomain.com" will be pointing to the Network device or
Reverse proxy server IP.
Depending upon users access location(internal\external) the IPs would vary and they should be able to access the website with same name.
The names that you would require on the certificate(Use EAC or powershell to raise the request) for client connectivity would be
SN= mail.mypublicdomain.com
SAN= autodiscover.mypublicdomain.com
You don't need to have the active directory domain name present in the certificate.
Additional to this you need to update the AutodiscoverURI for all servers and OWA,ECP,Autodiscover Virtual Directories InternalURL and ExternalURL fields with appropiate public names.
Some additional Info:
*Internal vs. External Namespaces
Since the release of Exchange 2007, the recommendation is to deploy a split-brain DNS infrastructure for the Internet-based client namespaces. A split-brain DNS infrastructure enables different IP addresses to be returned for a given namespace
based on where the client resides – if the client is within the internal network, the IP address of the internal load balancer is returned; if the client is external, the IP address of the external gateway/firewall is returned.
This approach simplifies the end-user experience – users only have to know a single namespace (e.g., mail.contoso.com) to access their data, regardless of where they are connecting. A split-brain DNS infrastructure, also simplifies the configuration of Client
Access server virtual directories, as the InternalURL and ExternalURL values within the environment can be the same value.

Running setup.exe for Exchange 2013 does nothing
Hi All,
Unable to find this issue anywhere else, please excuse if it's a duplicate of another issue.
Basically, I have a new 2008 R2 server setup, added it to a domain, and want to install Exchange 2013 on this new server. There are no Exchange servers anywhere on the domain.
The server is fully up to date, including .Net 4, and looking for updates results in zero new updates found.
When I run setup.exe for Exchange 2013, a command prompt appears for less than a second, then closes, then nothing else happens.
Did a fresh reboot before trying to install, and after waiting about 20 minutes to see if anything happened after the vanishing command prompt, rebooted again, tried again, same result.
There is nothing called Exchange anywhere on the server that I can find, no setup logs or anything, and I am totally stumped.
Thanks in advance for any advice.
MichaelHello,
Exchange 2013 need to be installed on windows server 2008 R2 SP1. If you use windows server 2008 R2 SP1, I sugegst you check if there is any exchange server via ADSIEDIT.

Configuring Lync Server 2013 to be a partner Application for Exchange 2013
Hello Guys,
I just want to share my experience while configuring Lync server 2013 to be a partner Application for exchange 2013 sever.
As mentioned on technet you need to run Configure-EnterprisePartnerApplication.ps1 script that ships with Exchange 2013.
But when I tried to run the script as described on the technet article, I found it always fails with " the accepted domain is not valid"
I have checked my accepted domains many times and i found that there's no issues with my configured accepted domain.
So I started to review the script to find the issue and I found that the script was configured as below
$acceptedDomains = Get-AcceptedDomain ;
if ($acceptedDomains -eq $null)
WriteError ("There is no accepted domain so user can not be created.")
$acceptedDomain = $acceptedDomains[0].Name;
if($UseDomainController -eq $true)
$user = New-MailUser -Name $username -DomainController $DomainController -ExternalEmailAddress $username@$acceptedDomain;
set-mailuser -Identity $user.Identity -HiddenFromAddressListsEnabled $true -DomainController $DomainController
else
$user = New-MailUser -Name $username -ExternalEmailAddress $username@$acceptedDomain;
set-mailuser -Identity $user.Identity -HiddenFromAddressListsEnabled $true;
which is totally wrong as below:
firstly it makes $AcceptedDomain variable to equal the Name of the accepted domain.
Not all customers configure the name of the Accepted Domain to be the Domain Name.
Secondly it makes $AcceptedDomain variable to equal the name of the first Accepted Domain.
The first domain may be not the default Accepted Domain.
So I have configured the script as below
$acceptedDomains = Get-AcceptedDomain | ? {$_.Default -eq "True"} ;
if ($acceptedDomains -eq $null)
WriteError ("There is no accepted domain so user can not be created.")
$acceptedDomain = $acceptedDomains.DomainName;
if($UseDomainController -eq $true)
$user = New-MailUser -Name $username -DomainController $DomainController -ExternalEmailAddress $username@$acceptedDomain;
set-mailuser -Identity $user.Identity -HiddenFromAddressListsEnabled $true -DomainController $DomainController
else
$user = New-MailUser -Name $username -ExternalEmailAddress $username@$acceptedDomain;
set-mailuser -Identity $user.Identity -HiddenFromAddressListsEnabled $true;
I hope This help.
Thanks

Is smb 3.0 already supported for exchange 2013
Hello,
We are looking to deploy exchange 2013. We have a netapp storage and vmware environment.
I was wondering if smb 3.0 is already supported for exchange 2013. I read in a blog of 2012 that it wasn't supported at the time. We would like to use it instead of a iscsi lun.Hi,
Based on my knowledge, it is still not supported for Exchange 2013 up to now.

It is there an alternative to the Test-SystemHealth powershell cmdlet for Exchange 2013?
Hello
The Powershell cmdlet Test-SystemHealth, that was available on Exchange 2010, is no longer available on Exchange 2013.

!! And now transport service won't start and mail is unavailable !!
Any help would be appreciated.
I have removed the ecp site from default site and attempting to rerun SP1 now. I do not have high hopes. :(Hi,
Thanks for your response.
From the error description, you need to manually remove the ECP with IIS manager in both the Default Web Site and the Exchange Back End firstly. And then continue the upgrade to check the result.
Hope this can be helpful to you.

Best Practice Analyzer for Exchange 2013
Greetings,
I have upgraded the messaging infrastructure from Exchange 2007 to Exchange 2013.
I want to test the Health of the system through ExBPA for Exchange 2013.
But i don't find any setup for Exchange 2013 like it was in 2010.
I went through an article by Office365 community, according to which for In-premises Exchange also we need to have office 365 account (can use trial account also) to get the downloader file for ExBPA 2013.
http://community.office365.com/en-us/w/deploy/office-365-best-practices-analyzer-for-exchange-server-2013.aspx
But to run the setup the servers needs to be connected to internet.
And, i don't want to expose my environment to internet in any condition.
Somebody, please suggest me if there is any setup available so that i can install directly without exposing to internet.
Thanks in advance.
Best Regards,
K2Welcome to Exchange 2013.
Exchange Server 2013 doesn't come with ExBPA for health check. This might help
http://exchangeserverpro.com/powershell-script-health-check-report-exchange-2010/
Apart from that you can run these commands too
Get-ServerHealth -Identity Exchange2013ServerName
Test-ServiceHealth

EXMON "exchange server user monitor" for Exchange 2013?
Hello,
it Looks like EXMON is not supported for Exchange 2013. Is this correct or can i use it with Server 2012 R2 and Exchange 2013 (CU6++) ?
Is there any alternative to check high log growth rate to see which user is responsable for this?
Thanks for Feedback.
best,
MartinHi Martin,
Yes, ExMon is not supported for exchange 2013.
Except the suggestion above, here is an exclusive application for you reference, it could retrieve statistics for all or selected mailboxes in a specified database and server, it may give you some help:
Exchange Server Mailbox Statistics Tool - v1.6.2
The tool retrieves mailbox statistics which includes Folder Count, Total Items, Associated Items, Deleted Items, Total Items Size, Deleted Items Size, Oldest Item Date, Newest Item Date, Items Age, Mailbox Age and Quota details. It also includes an additional
option named "Archive Statistics Planner" which will let you search mailboxes and provide statistics report with specific dates.
