Smith [mailto:michael@xxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Wednesday, March 02, 2005 2:59 PM To: [ExchangeList] Subject: [exchangelist] RE: Global Catalog Server http://www.MSExchange.org/ There are 3 names associated with a server. 1) The external FQDN that you have created a certificate for. 2) The internal FQDN that A/D knows the server by. 3) The internal netbios name that the server is known by. All three of those should be in the rpcproxy. -----Original Message----- From: Andrew English [mailto:andrew@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Wednesday, March 02, 2005 2:52 PM To: [ExchangeList] Subject: [exchangelist] RE: Global Catalog Server http://www.MSExchange.org/ Hey Michael, So that I don't get this wrong I use the following: owa.mysite.ca exchange.mysite.ca so I need to add owa.mysite.ca to the rpcproxy registry on the exchange box?

I have: exchange:6001-6002;exchange.myserver.ca:6001-6002;exchange:6004;exchange .myserver.ca:6004 in my exchanges registry under ....rpc\rpcproxy and the other GC setting on my DC/GC box which is a multi string value with NSPI interface protocol sequences, value of ncacn_http:6004 under .....NTDS\Parameters in the registry. The only thing I have not done is install the enterprise ca cert on the client machine because I was hoping that I wouldn't have to do that since I want to ideally have others access the site who are not going be accessing RPC over HTTP from the inside ever.
