Outlook Anywhere with Exchange 2007 on Windows Server 2008

Outlook Anywhere / Outlook Autodiscovery on Windows 2008 still has some problems.
Read this most excellent post that has all the details.

Long story shorts: Modify the hosts file, remove the IPv6 localhost (::1) and then add hosts entries for your server. I would recommend against disabling IPv6 on the Exchange server, as this is probably not a recommended or supported configuration.

The root cause is that Outlook 2007 can’t contact a DC/Domain Controller using RPC over HTTP/Outlook Anywhere when used on Windows Server 2008.

Also note that NTLM Authentification for Outlook 2007/Outlook Anywhere is broken on Windows Server 2008.

I’m better than you, Part II

I’ve participated at a game at the TechDays Switzerland, and didn’t win an X-Box.

Well, at least i got my picture and story published on the Microsoft Learning Website.

(Still happy, still not better than you)
