I'm having some troubles moving my Exchange 5.5 mailboxes to my 2003
server and getting the mailbox permissions correct. Maybe I'm missing
something in the process.
Here's what I have.
2003 Exchange server joined to a NT 4 domain site. (One server each -
same org).
ADC connector with 2 way connection agreement between the 2003 AD and
5.5 Directory. The amilbox information is replicated to AD in the form
of the disabled user accounts in the "Recipients" folder.
I Use Active Directory Migration Tool to move the user to the Active
Directory, then ADClean to merge the Exchange information from the
disabled user to the migrated user. Then I use Exchange system manager
to move the mailbox from the 5.5 server to the 2003 server.
This is OK, with one problem. The resulting user does not seem to
have apropriate rights to their own mailboxes! WhenI go to a migrated
user and check out Exchange Advanced - Mailbox Rights, the user is not
in the list of objects having rights to the mailbox (and they cannot log
in with OL). The account from the old domain is there with rigths to
the mailbox, but not the new one. And "Self" isn't there either, like it
apears it should when I create a "native" 2003 mailbox-enabled user.
Am I doing something wrong? Wrong order? missing a step?
I've been doing some reading and playing with a number of different
ways to do this and different orders of events, but I can't seem to get
it to come out the way I want it.
Any suggestions would be apreciated!
