Something I noticed today while working on some issues one of our guys had with using the EMC for Exchang 2007. He kept getting an access denied error when trying to do anything in the EMC. The messages went something like this:
——————————————————–
Microsoft Exchange Error
——————————————————–
The following error(s) were reported while loading topology information:
Get-OWAVirtualDirectory
Failed
Error:
Unable to create Internet Information Services (IIS) directory entry. Error message is: Access is denied.
HResult = -2147024891.
Access is denied.
Directory Path: IIS://mailboxserver.genericcompany.com/W3SVC/1/ROOT/Exchange
Detail:
server name: mailboxserver.genericcompany.com
local machine name: XPWORKSTATION
local machine fqdn: XPWORKSTATION.genericcompany.com
Access is denied.Kind of an irritating message actually. There were some other ones as well referring to the CAS server, etc.. etc.. but you get the point.The solution? heh, easy as can be actually.* From “Start”->”Run” type in ‘ dcomcnfg ‘ and hit “Enter”
* From the Component Services Console, expand “Component Services” -> “Computers”
* Right click on “My Computer” and select “Properties”
* On the “Default Properties” tab, find the Default Impersonation Level and change it from “Identify” to “Impersonate”That should do it.
