Hello Eric,
Probably because TS needs port 3389, and sometimes on a server restart
Exchange is allocated that port before TS gets it. It might be OK the next
time you restart the server, might not. To prevent this from happening, the
following procedure.
Use regedt32 to add the Internet key and values as follows.
1. Add the Internet key under:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Rpc
2. Under the Internet key, add the values
"Ports" (MULTI_SZ)
"PortsInternetAvailable" (REG_SZ)
"UseInternetPorts" (REG_SZ).
Use ports 4000 through 5000 inclusive, so the new registry key appears as
follows:
Ports: REG_MULTI_SZ: 4000-5000
PortsInternetAvailable: REG_SZ: Y
UseInternetPorts: REG_SZ: Y
Note: Very important that no spaces appear in the REG_MULTI_SZ string
4000-5000 for the Ports entry. (make sure there is no <enter> at the end of
the line)
3. Restart the server.
While ports: settings are different in the following KB article, the process
is the same:
