This is a vile problem. You would be well advised to get someone, say
PSS,
to work closely with you on the issue. Of course, you already did put a
call
in to Microsoft. Time to up the ante.

If you have a TAM, start screaming at the guy that you don't want to
waste
hours on the phone with PSS when you can get the same benefits from
playing
Freecell. Holler. Scream. Demand a resolution. Tell him your boss is
threatening to cut the Premier account and you're doing what you can to
save
Microsoft on the enterprise.

Or, you could hire a consultant to swing by and check things out for
you. I
know a guy or two who might be able to help...

We're still not out of the woods as I can replicate the folders to a 3rd
server (supposed to be identical to the first 2), remove the replica off
the "bad" server, and the 3rd server has the exact same folder
permissions issues as the original first server.  The 2nd server remains
good for accessing PFs.

We use BackupExec and Trend Micro's Scanmail for Exchange.

It's not worked from Day One so I doubt the security patches caused
issues.

Interesting through, if I connect through the one PF server directly, I
have problems.  If I connect through the 2nd PF server, it's peachy.
This is a huge break through.   I could just cry! ;)

Through experience we've learned that M: drive permissions are a no-no,
but that was after this was already occurring and is still occurring on
folders that we've never looked at through the M: drive.

We are using OWA as a front-end server.

I tried the http://servername/exchange rendition with no change in the
permissions issues.

Thanks for the ideas.

We upgraded to Ex2000 from Ex 5.5 about 3 or 4 weeks ago.  We're still
using the ADC but there are no accounts or public folders that exist on
the 2 remaining Ex5.5 servers.  Our public folders work great through
the Outlook client, but through OWA 2K, people with appropriate
permission may or may not have access to the same folders that they can
use without a problem through the OL client.  The folders may be shown
as empty, or the user may be prompted repeatedly for credentials and
then denied permission or shown an empty folder.  The only way to give
them access to these types of folders is to set the Default user to at
least Reviewer.  In the M: drive, if you go to the Security tab, you get
a warning that the permissions are "incorrectly ordered".  Microsoft has
no idea what is going on after several hours on the phone with them.
Has anyone seen this before?

Does this work if you use a front-end server for it?

Does this work if you use http://servername/exchange to start the OWA
session? Not http://servername.domain.com/exchange, just the host name.
If
that works, search the archives for "Coyote Jones" about in-depth
discussion
of that sort of boondoggle.

Yes, I now find myself in agreement with other Mr. Jones. Strange times

Although we hadn't been using the full domain\logon when we logged on, I
just verified that that does not make a difference.

Are your users logging on with the domain specified as  follows
domain\username
Password  ??
I found that users not providing the domain when logging on through OWA
would get prompted for credentials accessing public folders.

Conversation: Public Folders Access Issues through OWA
Subject: Public Folders Access Issues through OWA

Dear Exchange Admins,

We upgraded to Ex2000 from Ex 5.5 about 3 or 4 weeks ago.  We're still
using the ADC but there are no accounts or public folders that exist on
the 2 remaining Ex5.5 servers.  Our public folders work great through
the Outlook client, but through OWA 2K, people with appropriate
permission may or may not have access to the same folders that they can
use without a problem through the OL client.  The folders may be shown
as empty, or the user may be prompted repeatedly for credentials and
then denied permission or shown an empty folder.  The only way to give
them access to these types of folders is to set the Default user to at
least Reviewer.  In the M: drive, if you go to the Security tab, you get
a warning that the permissions are "incorrectly ordered".  Microsoft has
no idea what is going on after several hours on the phone with them.
Has anyone seen this before?

Signed,

Desperate (and worn out) in Stevens Pont

RE: Public Folders Access Issues through OWA

[Dumke, Jane]

Through experience we've learned that M: drive permissions are a no-no,
but that was after this was already occurring and is still occurring on
folders that we've never looked at through the M: drive.

We are using OWA as a front-end server.

I tried the http://servername/exchange rendition with no change in the
permissions issues.

Thanks for the ideas.

If you touched M: Drive permissions in ANY way, you are among the hosed.
If
you did any hardening of your IIS on that machine, check to see what the
hardening did.
