Syncing 10.6.2 mobile home to Exchange 2007 SMB share fails

I am having issues with Mac OS X 10.6.2 client and mobile homes hosted on an Exchange 2007 server where syncronisation of data between the mobile user's home directory at login and logout fails. This problem only seems to exist with 10.6 clients as reverting a client to 10.5 results in a problem free experience.
To summarise:
My client is bound to AD successfully (a DSCL confirms that this is the case and I can browse all the AD users).
Inside 'Directory Utility', 'Create mobile account at login' is ticked, along with 'Use UNC path from Active Directory to derive network home location', using SMB.
When a newly created user in AD logs into the Mac, login is immediately successful and the user is notified on when their AD password will expire. Immediately afterwards, the user is asked if they would like to create a mobile account, which if accepted will prompt a sync to start and the account is logged in.
As soon as the account is logged in and the desktop appears, the user is notified that there is a problem syncing:
Application Support
Audio
Calendars
Compositions
Favourites
Font Collections
Input Methods
Keychains
ByHost
com.apple.scheduler.plist
com.apple.symbolichotkeys.plist
iMovie
Once these errors are cleared, the SMB 'sharepoint' is mounted on the desktop.
A check of 'Ticket Viewer' shows that the machine has received a Kerberos ticket.
At this point I have visually checked that the user's home directory structure has been created on the SMB sharepoint specified in AD and it has. Obviously the files and folders specified in the error messages have not been created.
If the user logs out, the sync stalls with the only option being to manually stop the sync to successfully log out.
If the user logs in, the sync again stalls. Stopping the sync allows the user to login.
If I change a user from a mobile home to a network home something interesting happens…
The user can login, no visible problems
Opening an app and changing the apps default settings does not generate a .plist file in ~/Library/Preferences
If I copy a file from an external flash drive to any folder in the network user's home directory a 'disk is full' message appears despite the client machine correctly showing that there is 143GB of storage space available on the SMB volume.
This issue has been causing me major frustrations as it has been a problem for every build of 10.6 I have tested. Does anyone have any clues as to why this may be happening?

Anything here?

  • Public Folder Migration from Exchange 2007 to 2013 fails RelinquishedWlmStall budget limitations

    I have been trying to migrate approx 50 public folders from Exchange 2007 to Exchange 2013 for several months.  I have followed every link I can find on how to do the migration properly.  It will stay in a queued state for hours until the MRS is
    restarted.  It will then start copying messages.  After reaching 28% I get RelinquishedWlmStall as Status Detail.  Running the Get-PublicFolderMigrationRequestStatistics -IncludeReport | fl command I get the following: (truncated)

    Hi,
    Basic on the error message, I notice that public folder migrate slow and display that “Relinquishing job because of large delays due to unfavorable server health or budget limitations” .
    If I misunderstand your concern, please do not hesitate to let me know.
    Since it is just slow and not failing, please do not stop the batch, it might connect to another server for sync.
    Meanwhile, please refer to below link so that get details about Exchange Online migration performance and best practices:
    https://technet.microsoft.com/library/dn592150(v=exchg.150).aspx
    If the issue persists, please collect the relevant migration report for further troubleshooting.
    Thanks

  • Help - iCal All Day Events Not Syncing on Exchange 2007

    When I enter an all day event in iCal it does not sync to my Touch Pro 2 through Exchange 2007. I see the event in OWA and also in Entourage through Sync Services but it simply does not come onto the TP2. All day events entered in Entourage or OWA DO show up in the TP2. Strange but very frustrating because I like to enter my events using Launchbar which works with iCal only.
    I don't think I had this problem with 10.5
    Greatly Appreciate Help.

    I've noticed a similar problem. Previously, "all day" events listed correctly in both iCal (on my Mac) and in the calendar on my iPhone. Now, all day events on the iPhone cover the entire day, set to a time of 12 am to 12 pm.
    I'm not sure if this is related to 10.6.4 or my recent update to iOS4 on the phone.

  • ActiveSync in Exchange 2007 and 2013 Coexistence

    Hi,
    I have exchange 2007 and 2013 coexisting (exchange 2007 sp3 update rollup 13/exchange 2013 SP1)
    owa works fine from inside and outside, only that it requires users to authenticate twice when connecting from the external.
    autodiscover works well for users on both 2007 and 2013

    I have A records configured for both names on my public DNS and internal DNS
    THE ISSUES
    testing activesync from testconnectivity.microsoft.com works fine when i run the test using a mailbox on Exch2013 but fails for mailbox on Exch2007.
    New users on exch2007 & exch2013 are not able to setup email on their devices (blackberry and windows mobile),
    Existing users on exch2007 can no longer receive mails on their mobile devices

    Any help on this would be much appreciated ..

    You don't need to use a legacy URL for ActiveSync in Exchange 2013.  It will proxy ActiveSync for Exchange 2007 just fine.  In fact, ActiveSync is usually the protocol that gives you the least amount of trouble in a transition.  I recommend
    you configure your URLs for the proxy configuration and point everything to Exchange 2013 CAS.

  • Calander Sharing Permission is not effective between Exchange 2007 & Exchange 2013 User

    When a Exchange 2013 mailbox user share a calander with user in Exchange 2007 with OWNER permission, but Exchange 2007 user cannot modify or view full details of Exchange 2013 user calander.
    And same behavior from Exch2007 user sharing calander with Exch2013 user.
    In both scnarioes we can view only free/busy information. Cannot see full details of the meetings, cannot edit/modify. But permissions are set correctly.
    Getting Yes or No prompt window with message "You dont have permission to view the calander, Do you want to as User A to share his or her calander with you?"
    We are in Co exsistance with Exch2007 and Exch2013 CU3. 

    Hi,
    Does the issue happen to all users? What about Exchange 2007 users share calendar with Exch2007 users?
    Please double check whether calendar permissions are configured properly. If possible, we can remove the permission in Outlook then re-add it back later to check whether it works.
    Thanks,

  • Report on Mobile Home syncing

    Hello,
    Does anyone no of a way to check that the computer on a network are syncing their mobile directories properly?
    A report stating which users are uptodate would be really nice??
    Many thanks for any help,
    David Lee

    Sorry for the delay in reply.
    After revisiting this issue i tried the following based off your suggestions:
    Deleted that mobile home from the macbook pro.
    On the server reset the permissions to the users mobile home folder
    Set server to "create moblie home" - save.
    Again,  when loging in on the macbook pro with the users credentials.
    It goes through the process and creates the user but brings none of the content.
    The sync starts and finishes within 3 secconds.
    What I ended up doing was creating another user on the server,  tried the same steps as above.  ALL GOOD.
    I then manualy transfered content from the old user mobile home ot the new and everything is syncing perfectly!
    I'm wondering if perhaps that users old home folder had horrible file corruption or some sort of permissions issue. Or perhaps that this just wasnt meant to work between 10.7/8 and 10.9
    His user folder was syncing fine with his 2005 Macbook Pro (running 10.7)?  None the less it all worked out.  I'll then ensure the new home folder has all the info and delete the old user.
    Thanks for your help!

  • Mobile Home Sync damaged my settings. iCloud Keychain only partially restored. What can I do?

    Mobile Home Sync (I'm using Mobile Accounts from OS X Server) on my desktop suddenly started syncing what it should not, all stuff that is normally excluded from a PHD sync, such as contents in Library. I stopped it, but not fast enough to prevent all damage. One thing that was damaged was the 'lock screen with password on sleep' setting and apparently as a result of that (or a combination of that) the iCloud Keychain was gone.
    I was able (after some trouble, the Security & Privacy tab of System Preferences came up blank at first) to set the password on unlock from sleep, then I reattached the iCloud keychain. But the keychain only has a small part of what was in there and many passwords of web sites seem to be lost. Also interestingly, when trying to login to this community, some sort of iPhoto/Flickr login/password was suggested.
    I also have a laptop that was not damaged. Is there a way I can get the keychain from there and use it to repair the keychain on the desktop?
    PS. Apple: can you please after years and years of neglect repair Mobile Accounts and Portable Home Directories? iCloud is not only far from complete for that (a half-ready solution if at all) and it also means your data is synced outside of your domain (which is not always legally allowed). Mobile Accounts is so broken that I have started to use Synk to make sure some parts (such as the iPhoto Library) still can be synced to the server. And (as the above shows) it is quite capable of damaging the data on your system (rather a definite no on my list).

    Adding to  this: the autofill information in Safari is lost as well. Can I copy that over from another machine?

    From what I understand, there isn't anything to be concerned about, this is the OS doing cleanup, but it is a bit worrysome that my logs are being filled with this.

    I, too, have had the same problem since April 27, 2009 - that's when my last sync date is set.
    However, when I look at both my iCals on my Macbook and my iMac and my iTouch, everything is synced.
    And when I click on Advanced, the date is different than in my sync icon in the finder bar.
    Anyone have any info on this?

  • Initial Sync and Mobile Home Creation

    Hello,
    I have been using PHDs successfully in an OD environment for some time now, but currently am having an issue with the initial sync when a user logs onto a new workstation.
    Some background: We are using PHDs as pseudo-network home folders due to limitations in Pro Tools and its inability to function while working off of a network based home. Not ideal, but it's where we are at if we want to allow users to move from room to room but without using network homes...
    Our environment:
    - AD / OD mixed environment (working beautifully at the moment)
    - Separate server acting as home folder host (we'll call it afphome)
    - Clients managed by OD via computer groups
    The basic issue is that when a user logs onto a new workstation, the initial sync only creates a local home based on the standard template, despite the presence of a sync progress bar (stating "Checking..." only) during the initial log-in. If the user logs out immediately, a sync occurs, but may preferences are overwritten during this sync (namely finder). When the user logs back in, syncs occur normally, but those overwritten preferences are here to stay.
    How can I force PHD to do a full "from server" sync when a new home is being created locally, assuming that a network home exists for the user already?
    Many thanks,
    Josh

    Just found your post as I was having a similar problem. Our setup was with all Apple OD though.
    I had exactly the same problem with new workstations having the user setup with the default template. We also had some odd problems syncing specific files we never had trouble with before. Our issue arrived last week when our main sharing and userhomes data drive died and we had to recover from a backup. Once we recovered, everything except for sync of portable home directories came back properly.
    After doing some searching, I figured that I did not stand to lose anything if I shut off Server Admin > our server > Settings > General > Server side file tracking for Mobile Home Sync. Rebooted the server. Suddenly the clients with file troubles sync fine and creation of new users on a new workstation actually duplicates the network user.
    I'm not sure about other implications of shutting off the server side tracking but now we sync correctly again.

  • Q abt. "Server Side File Tracking for Mobile Home Sync"

    I am following the steps "To optimize the file server for mobile accounts" which are listed on page 157 in Mac OS X Server v10.6 - User Management :
    In Server Admin, click the disclosure triangle for the server hosting network home folders for mobile accounts.
    If Firewall isn’t listed, select the server, click Settings, click Services, select Firewall, and then click Save.
    Select Firewall, click Settings, and then click Services.
    Choose the address range for your users’ computers from the “Edit Services for” pop-up menu.
    Select “Allow only traffic from ‘ipaddress’ to any of these ports,” select the Allow checkbox for Mobile Account Sync (port 2336), and then click Save.
    Select the server, click Settings, and then click General.
    Select “Server Side File Tracking for Mobile Home Sync” and then click Save.
    My questions is:
    In step 2, I added "Firewall" to the services. I continued with the following steps, but nowhere does it say to press the button "Start Firewall", so as of right now Firewall is listed, but not activated - it's gray and not green. Should I turn on the Firewall Service? In my setup, a cable modem/router is acting Firewall between WAN and LAN (small private home network).

    I can't get Server Side File Tracking to work. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
    Here's what I've done:
    1. Followed the instructions in "Mac OS X Server v10.6 - User Management" as per the first post in this thread.
    2. Tried turning on the Firewall Service - resulting in clients unable to log in to their network accounts.
    3. In Server Admin, under Firewall>Settings>Services, with 192.168-net selected in the pop-up menu entitled "Editing services for", I then chose "Allow all traffic" (instead of "Allow only traffic to these ports:") as my router acts as a Firewall in my setup. Now users can log in to their network accounts again, but Server Side File Tracking is still not working. How do I know it is not working?
    According to infinite vortex in this other thread, the syncing window is supposed to only show this:
    On my clients, you can see it scan through the home directory before the file copying/syncing actually starts.

  • Exclude large files from mobile home sync

    Hi, is there a way to exclude files from mobile home sync based on their file size?  For example, I work with many VMs on my MacBook Pro, juggling around between different installation ISOs for various Linux distros and version of Windows.  For the mostpart, these large ISOs (some pushing 4GB in size) are only used on my MacBook and not on my Mac Mini running OS X Lion Server.
    I have mobile home sync set up, and it's been working great, until I happen to download a large file.  If I'm not paying attention, my home directory will begin to sync with the server, pushing these large files over the wireless network, soaking up all of the bandwidth.
    I understand I can create specific directories to exclude from syncing via Workgroup Manager, and also use various rules with regex in regard to the naming of the files and directories that should also be excluded from sync.  But I'm often juggling around files of various formats between various directories in my development environment, and it would be troublesome to write rules that would encapsulate all of the scenarios.  The most simple solution would be to base it on file size, and I can't seem to find much on this in Workgroup Manager.

  • Mobile home syncing problem

    Hi all,
    I have a mobile home syncing problem. When the sync runs it returns the following error:
    Unknown error: -[SStore myNodeForNode:isDestNode:]: Unable to find node for "Pictures/iPhoto Library/Data/2008/6-Aug-08/DSC00042.jpg" in store "HomeSyncMirrorPeer-DfrxJp1ET07-zivj" Please try again later. If this problem persists, contact your network administrator.
    This file does not exist both on the server and on my mobile laptop.
    Any ideas how to solve this?
    Thanks,
    Ziv

    Shawn,
    I've done the deletion of those folders a number of times, with no luck.
    The most recent attempt to get this to work was:
    1. Delete ~/.FileSync and ~/Library/FileSync from the server machine.
    2. With a brand-new install of OS X on a laptop, create a local administrator, join the server, then login as the user account that wants a mobile account
    3. Look at logs
    I still get an exception on the server

    as well as the corresponding error on the client.
    I'm quite frustrated with the whole situation at this point. I'm sure some folks have gotten it to work, but since it has exceptions like this silently, it slowly corrupts the data in an account. I still want to get it to work, but am skeptical that it will.

  • Where are mobile home sync logs found?

    Did some searching, came up empty

    This is probably too late for the OP, but hopefully someone else will find it helpful.
    The problem is ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.security.plist.
    If you're using mobile home folders, don't sync it.  If you're not, script it to kill it off at login.
    This what worked for me.

  • Exchange active sync cannot connect to server after migration mailbox user from exchange 2007 to exchange 2013 coexistence

    Hello, everyone, my name is rafl
    I have a problem with exchange 2013 active sync.
    I have installed exchange 2013 coexistence with legacy exchange 2007, I have to migrate user mailboxes: [email protected] from exchange 2007 to exchange 2013.
    but any problem with active sync connection on the mobile device after moving mailbox user. I reconfigure the exchange ActiveSync external connection domain (latest.domain.com) on mobile device replacing legacy exchange ActiveSync external connection domain
    (legacy.domain.com)
    the process of moving mailboxes successfully without error.
    Access OWA for exchange 2007 and exchange 2013 is running normally
    access mail from Outlook running normally
    Certificate request has been installed and has no problem with it
    The OWA virtual directory is configured for internal and external connections and different from the legacy exchange
    The autodiscover virtual directory is configured for internal and external connections and different from the legacy exchange
    ActiveSync virtual directory is configured for internal and external connections and different from the legacy exchange
    user mailboxes are still on exchange 2007 is not problematic.
    only problem with Exchange Active Sync on mobile devices, where I set up an email with android, iphone, windows phone. the error message: cannot connect to the server.
    but, if I create a new user and create user mailboxes directly in exchange server 2013, ActiveSync can run without error on mobile device, access through OWA, MsOutlook, Outlook Anywhere also run normally.
    only the results of user migration from exchange 2007 to exchange 2013 which is troubled with exchange ActiveSync connection.
    any ideas for this problem, and what should I check on the exchange server ..?

    i have run the activesync test connectivity and get some error :
    Testing TCP port 443 on host domain.co.id to ensure it's listening and open.
    The specified port is either blocked, not listening, or not producing the expected response.
    A network error occurred while communicating with the remote host.

    The specified port is either blocked, not listening, or not producing the expected response.

    Elapsed Time: 21049 ms.
    I have allowed access to port 443 (https) and 80 (http) on the firewall and re-run testconnectivity, but still with the same results. if I enable active sync for users who created directly in Exch 2013 there is no problem with the ActiveSync, just a problem
    for users who moved from Exch 2007 to Exch 2013. @Android, iPhone, and Blackberry the error message "cannot connect to the server"
