Hello, when I restart my Win 2008 server with Exchange 2010, all Exchange services start except the authentication service based on Microsoft Exchange forms, suddenly no OWA. I am forced to manually start it. Yet it is well start automatically, but nothing helped, same problem at each reboot. There is no dependency on this service. any idea? thank you

Hi, Are there any entries in the event log about it? What you might try is to start if with a delay and check if that works. Regards, JohanExchange-blog: www.johanveldhuis.nl

Him Go to the services MMC and get the properties of the service, normally this is set to automatic, change the start up type to automatic (delay started) Regards, Johan Exchange-blog: www.johanveldhuis.nl

Hi aplcmul, Please follow Johan’s suggestion to change it to “automatic (delay started)”, then check this issue will occur or not. If this issue still occur, please run Exbpa to do a health check for the Exchange Server.
