Live@Edu Provisioning Users

[rob998]

Hi guys,

 

We will be using Live @ Edu and outlook live for e-mail from September. I have a server with 2k3 Enterprise, SQL 2008, ILM 2007 and GALSync installed.

 

I have set everything up as per the instructions and have managed to get all my users from my on-site AD to outlook live. The problem is none of my users can logon using their usual password.

 

I have made sure all passwords are 6 characters long and done the sync password instructions.

 

Any help on this would be greatly recieved.

 

Many thanks,

 

Rob

Sorry I never noticed this before..

 

The mistake I made was that I was expecting the current passwords to be sent up to live@edu when the initial StartSync -Firstrun was done.

 

This isnt what happens. It is only subsequent password changes which are synced.

 

What we did was on a year by year basis forced all the students to change their password on site, which then sent the new password up to live@edu.

 

(Im guessing you have installed the PCNS on all your DC's and you have run the setspn and the pcnscfg commands too?)

Rob998 did you get it working OK ?

Hi mate,

 

Thanks for you input. I had made the mistake of thinking they would be sync'd on the first run. I get lots of these nice messages in the event logs!

 

The password notification has been delivered to all targets.
