Hi,
Im trying to set up IP Block List Providers on a very simple Exchange environment consisting of two servers.
Server1 = Client Access and Mailbox roles (domain joined)
Server2 = Edge role (not domain joined)
I Setup my Block Lists Providers on Server1 then run the PowerShell command "Get-IPBlockListProvider" which then returns the providers I setup. Now if I change to Server2 and run the same PowerShell command it does not list any configuration. My first thought was that the AD LDS instance on the edge was not updated so I ran the command Start-EdgeSynchronization -ForceFullSync -Server Server1 -TargetServer Server2 to force an update on the edge, then Test-EdgeSynchronization –FullCompareMode which reports everything as synchronized.
Why is the configuration not showing on the Edge? Could there be a communication issue or should I be adding the Block List Providers Directly on the Edge without being able to see the configuration from Server1?
The reason I suspect communication is because when I open the ECP on Server1 (FrontEnd) click Servers and double click the Edge (Server2) I get the following error message “An error occurred while accessing the registry on the server"Server2.domain.local". The error that occurred is: "The network path was not found". Ive checked the DNS, im able to ping the DC and the front end (server1) from the edge. Im also able to map the C$ share of the DC and Front End.
Appreciate any help on this.
