hi
when using profgen, & newprof together with the -p default.prf -N -R -L flags i get no error, however the Microsft Exchange server profile has not been setup or configured (no error messages on profgen)
i assume i'm missing a step ? ~ here's a example of a default.prf

[General]
ProfileName=testuser
DefaultStore=Service2

[Service List]
Service1=Microsoft Exchange Client
Service2=Microsoft Exchange Server

[Service2]
ConversionProhibited=TRUE
HomeServer=EXCHANGE
MailboxName=testuser
ExchangeConfigFlags=4

[Microsoft Exchange Server]
< i hav't touched this section)
[Microsoft Exchange Server]
ServiceName=MSEMS
MDBGUID=5494A1C0297F101BA58708002B2A2517

MailboxName=PT_STRING8,0x6607
; -- The name of the user's Exchange Server Mailbox

HomeServer=PT_STRING8,0x6608
; -- The name of the Microsoft Exchange Server the user should
; connect to. You can specify any Microsoft Exchange Server
; in your site, and the correct Home Server will be assigned
; when the user first logs on.

any ideas ?

cheers

steve

hi Ken

that's where i'm using my code from...imn effect i'm querying thet the use of the -N -R -L

If the following works then a user should be able to start Outlook for the firstime & starght inot their email ? No...when out look is run it starts the outlook wizard looking for a service to install ! ~Windows 2000 !

$returncode = writeprofilestring($locprof,"general","profilename",$username)
$returncode = writeprofilestring($locprof,"service2","MailboxName",$username)
$returncode = writeprofilestring($locprof,"service2","HomeServer",$exserver)

SHELL '%COMSPEC% /C '+$scrdir+'\Profgen.exe '+$scrdir+'\Newprof.exe -p default.prf -N -R -L > nul'

i also refer anyone readin this that there is a couple of Microsoft KB articles in regards to the -S swith on newprof & to obtain the latest newprf & profden code

Steve,

If you are building a standard image, you will want to be sure that Outlook is Pre-Configured for Exchange Server and not Pop3. You will want to insure that you can get in using a test user, for example. The only caveat with a test user on a client build is that you need to change the default mail client to something other than Outlook. When a client logs in and Outlook is started, they are prompted for Outlook being the default client and this adds the Outlook icon to the Quick Launch tray.

Here is what we have in the PRF file..
code:
[General]
Custom=1
; -- Required. Indicates that this is a customized PRF file.
ProfileName=KDyer
DefaultProfile=Yes
OverwriteProfile=Yes
DefaultStore=Service2
BackupProfile=NO

[Service2]
ConversionProhibited=TRUE
HomeServer=OUREXCHANGESERVER
MailboxName=KDyer
; Required.
; -- The name of the Microsoft Exchange Server the user should
; connect to. You can specify any Microsoft Exchange Server
; in your site, and the correct Home Server will be assigned
; when the user first logs on.

[Service3]
Ben=TRUE
; -- Dummy property. Do not delete or modify.

We checked how you are starting PROFGEN/NEWPROF and it is the same.

If any of the above points do not address your issue.. Can you post your code you use to create your outlook profile?

Thanks!

Kent
