I currently have an Exchange 2013/2007 coexistence scenario which gives me trouble with the RPC over HTTP part with users with a 2007 mailbox. the MS RCA website performs 2 tests with the MAPI address book endpoints, once against a 2007 mailbox server and once a against a GC/DC, the last one fails. The logs are from our test domain, but the exact same happens in the production domain. running CU8 (recently upgraded, but problem was exactly the same with CU7)

texmb11 = ex2007 mailbox
texfr11 = ex2007 CAS
tdc01421 = DC/GC
texch31 = 2013 multirole

other symptoms :
Browser test
https://texch31.domain.test/rpc/rpcproxy.dll?texmb11:6004
--> 503 (which is correct)
https://texch31.domain.test/rpc/rpcproxy.dll?tdc01421:6004
--> 404.0 Not Found
RPCPing
rpcping -t ncacn_http -s texmb11 -o RpcProxy=texch31.domain.test -P "user,dom,*" -I "user,dom,*" -H 2 -u 9 -a connect -F 3 -v 3 -e 6004
Success
rpcping -t ncacn_http -s tdc01421 -o RpcProxy=texch31.domain.test -P "user,dom,*" -I "user,dom,*" -H 2 -u 9 -a connect -F 3 -v 3 -e 6004
Fails!
so the Ex2013 RPCProxy doesn't proxy to the DC/GC, but the RPCProxy to an ex2007 mailbox server works fine, so the authentication methods configured are correct i'd say..
the same tests using the ex2007CAS server as RPC proxy all succeed!:

Logs
all tries against the 2013 CAS server generate '404' log entries in several logs int the Logging directory, the most explicit being the one in Program Files\Microsoft\Exchange Server\V15\Logging\HttpProxy\RpcHttp : HttpProxy_xxxxxx.LOG

the error suggests the name could not be resolved. but nslookup works fine. i can ping the tdc01421 correctly form texch31, it returns me the ipv4 address. i can telnet to port 6004 from texch31 server to tdc01421 giving me the correct 'ncacn_http' answer..
i look at the 'ValidPorts' and ValidPorts_Autoconfig_Exchange reg keys and filled them with the same i have on the 2007cas servers (all ex servers, all dc/gc's, all of them with netbios & fqdn ports 6001,6002 & 6004..) but also no success.
im out of ideas by now..
