Hi Carl,
You should theoretically be able to setup the MAPI profile even on the
wrong server - as long as GC is replicated. It is up to Exchange to tell
the client its mailbox is located on another server. So the following
should be correct:
Case 1: You can create profiles on any server regardless where the mailbox is
stored
====================================================================================
$ mapiprofile --newdb
$ mapiprofile --create -P Administrator --username=Administrator
--password=<secret> -I <Exchange_2007_IP> -D <YOUR_WINDOWS_DOMAIN>
Profile Administrator completed and added to database
${HOME}/.openchange/profiles.ldb
$ mapiprofile --create -P Carl --username=Carl --password=<secret> -I
<Exchange_2003_IP> -D <YOUR_WINDOWS_DOMAIN>
Profile Carl completed and added to database ${HOME}/.openchange/profiles.ldb
$ mapiprofile --list
We have 2 profiles in the database:
Profile = Administrator
Profile = Carl
Case 2: You can only create profiles on the correct server
==========================================================
However if it doesn't work and Exchange refuses to create the profiles,
follow case 1 but use correct IP addresses - where mailboxes are
supposed to be, then run:
$ ldbedit ~/.openchange/profiles.ldb
Search for your profiles (it launches VIM), replace the IP addresses to
point at the other server, save and quit.
Finally, when the test configuration is OK, run wireshark and execute
the following commands:
$ openchangeclient --profile=Administrator --dump-data -d10
$ openchangeclient --profile=Carl --dump-data -d10

Indeed, that would be really worthwhile.
Please let me know if you need further information.
Cheers,
Julien.
