Outlook 2016 gal not updating exchange 2016
01-Mar-2020 01:16
This morning I was asked to update the Global Address List and Offline Address Book in an Exchange environment.
You could wait for Exchange to do it automatically (the default schedule is once a day) but what when you want to force the update to take place right now?
For existing users running Outlook 2013, the new users do not appear in the Global Address List nor in the "All Users" address list.
On the Exchange server, the new users appear in the "All Users" address book when running "Preview" in Edit Address List wizard (EMC All Users) I can run "Update-Global Address List -Identity "Default Global Address List." Command runs successfully with no errors generated.
Outlook Anywhere is enabled and I've tried both NTLM and basic authentication, as well as forcing basic authentication by manually configuring server settings in Outlook.
I've verified authentication in all IIS virtual directories except for "Exchange," which gives me an error "configuration section not allowed to be set below application." I compared this with another client's Exchange 2010 web.config file and they are identical at the line indicated in the error.
Address lists are based on recipient filters, and are basically unchanged from Exchange 2010.All other directories have default authentication settings.
