Hi, I am facing one strange problem. I am running Exchange server 2010 on windows server 2008 R2 Enterprise SP1. Problem: On Exchange server user's profile have been created automatically without user's been logged into the exchange server. Is this can be a IIS related issue? I have found the similar article here http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/nl/exchangesvradmin/thread/622b4cb7-a04d-44e4-993f-bbccc14e58f9, Expand to 'Local Policies/User Rights Assignment', on right panel, locate the policy "Allow log on locally", remove the Domain users or Everyone from the Allow list. But, I can't able to add or removed from 'Allow log on locally' list, and there aren't any 'Domain users' or Everyone in the Allow list, I don't know why these profile have been created automatically. Please advise Regards, Ady

I think you didn't get my question

Do you allow users to change their passwords using OWA? If you do you have your answer in the thread you referenced. Perhaps you have "Authenticated Users" or some other group that's allowed to log on locally. --- Rich Matheisen MCSE+I, Exchange MVP --- Rich Matheisen MCSE+I, Exchange MVP

Yes, We do allow users to change passwords via OWA. I do have 'Authenticated Users', but I can't able to removed it from Allow Log on Locally. Any idea?

Are you sure there's a profile there, or is it just an empty directory? --- Rich Matheisen MCSE+I, Exchange MVP --- Rich Matheisen MCSE+I, Exchange MVP

Hi AK What is in your "Allow log on locally"? CheersZi Feng TechNet Community Support

There are so many users profile created automatically and It's just an empty directories, but still it is taking lot of space in C drive.

Hi Zi, Allow log on Locally -Administrators -Authenticates Users -TFSREPORTS That's all I have, but Add and remove option grayed out. Cheers,
