Hello all,
We have a pretty much standard install of Exchange Server 2010. The issue started a few days ago when the mail server was rebooted. The original error message was that owa did not initialize because it could not access active directory settings could not be accessed. I read that the best solution was to delete and reset the owa directory using a cmdlet. After the reset we got the following error:
Outlook Web App didn't initialize. If the problem continues, please contact your helpdesk. The Microsoft Exchange Active Directory Topology service on server localhost can't be contacted via RPC. Error 0x5.
I have heard that this happens on servers that have multiple NICs (which our server does) however, I am used to working with Linux mail systems and I am still new to Microsoft Exchange. Any help would be appreciated.
