Mangled 2000 Attributes in Windows 2000 Forests

S

scott salvatore

Were upgrading from 2000 AD and Exchange to 2003 AD and Exchange we are
doing the Exchange server first.



According to KB Article ID: 314649



To prevent Mangled Attributes in Windows 2000 Forests that contain an
Exchange 2000 Servers we need to run the; ldifde -i -f
inetorgpersonprevent.ldf -v -c DC=Domain,DC=com Script. When I tried to do
this, I received an error that the From To DN is incorrect. Not knowing what
this meant searched the console.



The script wants to rename the ms-Exch-Assistant-Name, ms-Exch-LabeledURI,
and the ms-Exch-House-Identifier CN attributes to msExchAssistantName,
msExchLabeledURI, and msExchHouseIdentifier before you run the Windows
Server 2003 adprep /forestprep



However in the console schema there is no entry for ms-Exch-Assistant-Name,
ms-Exch-LabeledURI, and the ms-Exch-House-Identifier CN. It dose have the
houseIdentier, Secretary, and labeledURI that is listed in scenario 3 of the
article but we did not run the 2003 adprep /forestprep so this scenario dose
not apply I think.



Questions:

Since the above do I need to run the inetorgpersonfix.ldf?

If So how do I get around the error?

You need to replace the DC= components 6f the c600and syntax with the
relevant naming components used by your forest. For example, if your
forest were named msetechnology.net, you would use -

ldifde -i -f inetorgpersonprevent.ldf -v -c DC=msetechnology,DC=net

I did that the error indicated the issue was with the DN From To. I assume
it is with the attributes. that the script could not find the
ms-Exch-LabeledURI, and the ms-Exch-House-Identifier attributes.

If your assumption is correct, it is unlikely that you have a problem in
the first place ...

Thank you just to be on the safe side I want to confirm the location of the
attrabuted I checked the for them in the MMC Snapin Active Directory Schema.
Is that the right location? if not were are they?
