APPLIES TO


 * Microsoft Exchange Server 5.5 Service Pack 3

-



This article was previously published under Q249112





SYMPTOMS
If you set up a filter rule in the [LME-NOTES-DXANOTES] section of the Exchconn.ini file, the Microsoft Exchange Connector for Lotus Notes ignores the filter rule during directory synchronization (dirsync), and if a user's mail domain is empty in the Notes server Address Book, the Exchange Connector for Lotus Notes synchronizes the user to the Exchange Server directory. Additionally, all of the resource documents are synchronized to the Exchange Server directory.



RESOLUTION
To resolve this problem, obtain the latest service pack for Exchange Server 5.5. For additional information, click the following article number to view the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:

191014 XGEN: How to Obtain the latest Exchange Server 5.5 Service Pack



STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in Microsoft Exchange Server version 5.5 Service Pack 3. This problem was first corrected in Exchange Server 5.5 Service Pack 4.



MORE INFORMATION
There is another INI parameter available, the ExportResources parameter, that you can use in the [LME-NOTES-DXANOTES] section of the Exchconn.ini file. You can set the ExportResources parameter to one of the following values, as applicable:
 * 0 - The Exchange Connector for Lotus Notes does not export Resource entries from Notes at all.
 * 1 - The Exchange Connector for Lotus Notes exports Resource entries as before filter rules.
 * 2 - The Exchange Connector for Lotus Notes conditionally exports Resource Notes Address Book entries based on filter rules.

Before you apply this fix, or if the ExportResources parameter is set to a value other than 2, filter rules (if any exist) are applied only to Notes Address Book entries of the Person type. This parameter defaults to 1 if no setting is found.
