I had problems with this all the way up until the end but it’s now working.

I ran through the whole process as laid out in the article and then followed the tips in these comments – in the end I absolutely needed the Windows7 SP1 install before this worked (I got an error if I tried to rename the ADU&C and add /32 and when creating the batch file).

I now use the .bat file to run this (it works by just renaming the ADU&C shortcut with /32 but I am also using RUNAS as I log in with a standard account and then run the tools as an admin user).
I have the Exchange tabs and tasks in my AD snap-in no problems.

Thanks to all for you help/ tips.

Comment on OpenSolaris Backup Solution with Rsync and ZFS Snapshots by Craig Askings

Thanks for this post, being new to Solaris it saved me a lot of grief and heartache.

After following your instructions I found rsyncd would not start and svcs reported it as offline.

Turned out that the manifest had svc:/network/physical:default as a dependency but I had svc:/network/physical:nwam enabled instead. Changing the dependency to just svc:/network/physical fixed that for me, Diff below:

That is the bomb! Works like a charm! I have looked off and on for a solution for 64bit win7, and have never been able to find one – running mmc /32 fixed it for me!

Hi Guys,

I was having the same issues with Windows 7 64-Bit.
Install Service Pack 1 for Windows 7, fixes the problem.
