I have two forest.

1. forest conf: win2008 + Exchange 2007

2. forest conf: win2003 + Exchange 2003

i have GALSync with MIIS. i can see users in AD on other forest from both forest. Also i can see users in other forest from GAL on outlook, but i not send mail and i not shared calendar task etc...

i get error:

calendar sharing is not avaible with the fallowing entries because of permission settings on your network or

A configuration error in the e-mail system caused the message to bounce between two servers or to be forwarded between two recipients. Contact your administrator.

Notes:

Something worth mentioning: By default if your importanting contacts the option in the Exchange Advanced Tab: Use MAPI rich text format will be checked.

When clients using microsoft word as their default editior in outlook send email, it will send as a file attachment. To avoid this you will need to remove all references to mAPIRecipient in the following areas:

Edit your agent:

Under Select Attributes uncheck mAPIRecipient

Under Configure Attribute Flow you will need to select each Data Source Attribute.

Expand the Object type under Data Source Attribute and find mAPIRecipient and click delete. Do this for all Data Source Attributes.

Now I'm not sure when you re-export this to your AD if it will overwirte existing settings. I completely deleted all contacts and did a fresh export. When looking at the contact properties you will find that Use MAPI rich text format has been unchecked.

OK, I have installed the 180 day trial of ILM 2007. I have MIIS 2003 but needed to use SQL 2005 for a domain merger. Until we get our mailboxes all moved over, I need to use the GALSync. My problem is, everything seems to work fine except there are no contacts created in either domain. Any ideas? I get no errors.

Hmm im having some odd errors occurring when i try to do this :(

All my users are in one forest and i and im trying to get contacts to appear in the other forest.

Everytime i run the MA agent i get extension-unexpected-attribute-value on every single ou and user??

maybee im doing the container/target wrong.

As far as i can work it, container is the location of all the users you want synced and target is the Ou you want the contacts for the other forest to appear in. (or am i going about this wrong somewhere)

Hello

Could you please clarify what adsiedit is ?

21. Open ADSIEdit and navigate to the container in the domain where the users, contacts, or mail enabled distribution groups are located.

22. Right-click to expose the context menu, and select Properties.

23. Click on the Security tab, and click Advanced.

24. Choose to Add an ACE.

Dave,

Are you trying to install MIIS on a 64b platform? MIIS is only supported on 32b and it throws error:

"Error 25082. Error installing the Identitiy Integration Feature Pack WMI Provider. This is not a valid MOF File"

when trying to insall on 64b.

This is a great article.

Though, in my environment the contacts are not imported into the CS of FORESTA and I suspect that I have a problem in the ForestA MA configuration, maybe in section 19. where you describe the "Configure GAL page, configure the settings under Exchange configuration". Can you please provide me more information about this sublect?

Thanks in advance!

I'm trying to install IIFP on 2003 Enterprise Server. I have .NET 2.0, IIS installed locally and I'm using a remote SQL 2000 server. After typing in the service account name, password, and domain (I'm using the administrator account) it begins the install process but then suddenly gives me an error and quits:

"Error 25082. Error installing the Identitiy Integration Feature Pack WMI Provider. This is not a valid MOF File"

I cannot find any info on the Internet regarding this error, any suggestions?

Great description! When you have configured 3 Mgmt. Agents for 3 diffrent Forests (for example A, B and C) and you have done the Import and Synch on all 3 MA's - is it possible to seperate the export??? So, if you run the export Profile on Mgmt. Agent for B only the Forest C will be exported to the AD of Forest B???? thanx Roman

Thanks for posting this article. After struggling for weeks to understand how the IIFP works for GAL syncs, this really clarified things.

GalSync's for Address Lists, but what about synchronizing Free/Busys across two forests?

clustering — Tue, 10 May 2005 15:08:00 GMT

This blog explaining the setup of GalSync for synchronizing two disparate address lists in an Exchange 2003 environment across two forests is useful.

However, another question lies in how to synchronize free/busy traffic for calendaring functions across the same forests. Can GalSync be also used for calendaring, or is there another utility that does the same for free/busy? If such a utlity exists, how is it set up?

Thank you in advance for your reply.

I'm running windows 2000 server, i'm not able to find security
after creating OU contacts

Step 17 in 'to configure active directory'. On the Contacts Properties dialog box click Security.

Please advice, thanks!

It worked perfectly, but I have a special need.

I'm using different smtp domains on same forest.
I tdoesn't work right if I add 3 agents(2 for same forest) and it won't work with two smtp domains in same agent.

Is there a special order for the scripts to synchronize correctly? The result is that in FORESTB, Contacts OU from FORESTA forest, I end up with contacts from FORESTA forest, from both agents, and this isn't right. FORESTB remains unaffected.

Thanks a lot,

Vlad

I am pretty sure you can not do that with the Free IIFP. Try using the full featured and priced MIIS.

After running GALSync, all objects are exported as contacts. I was wondering how difficult it would be to gave the groups exported as groups instead of contacts?

Thanks,
Travis

Don - remember the Delta Import is in fact a Delta Import (Stage Only) AND a Delta Sync combined.

Having said that I am also slightly confused as to why you can't just run this from both forests first before doing an Export each way but whatever - it seems to work!

Thanks very much Rodney.

We do this to bring the information in from each domain, then write the information back out for each domain.

This document was very helpful with setting the permissions. Thank you.

I'm a little confused about the batch file that you created though. Why would you deltaimport and export for each domain twice? Don't you also have to run a delta synch?

I would have thought that you would want to run:
cscript "FORESTA_DeltaImport.vbs" - to import new data from A to the connector space and metaverse
cscript "FORESTB_DeltaImport.vbs" - to import new data from B to the connector space and metaverse
cscript "FORESTA_Export.vbs" - to export new data to A
cscript "FORESTB_Export.vbs" - to export new data to B

Thanks again.

Service Restricted, means this is a normal account (without Admin rights), that you only use for this process. The account should be locked down, can't logon through Terminal Services, restrict to the one machine for logon, etc.
