Is this a BUG?? This is the account which I installed AD and Installed Exchange 2007/2010 Servers. Advise Please. Thank you

Hi Wild, This is a common error. Please follow below Exchange blogs and try: http://blogs.technet.com/b/exchange/archive/2010/12/07/3411644.aspx http://blogs.technet.com/b/exchange/archive/2010/02/04/3409289.aspx Thanks.Rowen TechNet Community Support

Thanks Rowen ..while going through the above articles I ran the EMTroubleshooter which Passed then I stumbled upon the following http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2027064 and it did made some changes after it told me .... Create a WinRM listener on HTTP://* to accept WS-Man requests to any IP on this machine and clicked "YES". I hope this ends my nightmare. It was working but intermittently.

Like I said it is intermittent so its back again ... I cannot open the Exchange Management Shell either. I am seeing this issue on the exchange server itself when I try to open the EMC. My error message does not say nothing about WinRM. This has been driving me NUTS!!!!!

Hi Wild, How about using another account but with the same permission? Please give it a try. Thanks.Rowen TechNet Community Support
