I think the step below is misleading. Make sure you perform step 2 on all
Global Catalog servers that Exchange 2003 looks to. (This registry edit
does not apply to workstations or member servers since they do not hold a
copy of the NTDS [aka Active Directory/Directory Store]) And for what its
worth, RPC over HTTPS works great!
Step 2: Configure your computer to use specific ports for RPC over HTTP for
directory services
To do this, follow these steps:
1.. Start Registry Editor.
Warning If you use Registry Editor incorrectly, you may cause serious
problems that may require you to reinstall your operating system. Microsoft
cannot guarantee that you can solve problems that result from using Registry
Editor incorrectly. Use Registry Editor at your own risk.
2.. Locate and then click the following registry subkey:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\NTDS\Parameters
3.. On the Edit menu, point to New, and then click Multi-String Value.
4.. Name the new registry value NSPI interface protocol sequences.
5.. Right-click NSPI interface protocol sequences, and then click Modify.
6.. In the Value data box, type ncacn_http:6004, and then click OK.
7.. Quit Registry Editor, and then restart the computer.

I have followed KB833401 to the letter, but no luck on getting it to
work.
I
have verified the server side (at least according to the article), but it
still won't connect. Has anyone found out some magic to make it work?
