From: gerrycurtis on 11 Sep 2008 05:35 A peculiar problem has arisen whereby I am no longer able to create a universal distribution group in exchange management console (or shell). I have previously had no problem with this. The error message that comes up is as follows after trying to create a distribution group called Extended Services. Saturn.falmouth.local is one of our domain controllers: Active Directory operation failed on saturn.falmouth.local. This error is not retriable. Additional information: An attempt was made to modify an object to include an attribute that is not legal for its class. Active directory response: 0000207D: UpdErr: DSID-03150F9C, problem 6002 (OBJ_CLASS_VIOLATION), data 0 An object class violation occurred. Exchange Management Shell command attempted: new-DistributionGroup -Name 'Extended Services' -Type 'Distribution' -OrganizationalUnit 'falmouth.local/Users' -SamAccountName 'Extended Services' -Alias 'ExtendedServices' I have also tried creating a universal distribution group in AD then selecting in management console. I get the same error. Any help would be most appreciated.
From: Michael Dragone on 11 Sep 2008 12:52 Interesting. What version of Windows Server are all your domain controllers running? Is Saturn a new DC?

From: gerrycurtis on 11 Sep 2008 15:10 Thanks for your interest - All (both) our domain controllers are running server 2003 with the latest service packs. Saturn is a fairly old DC (not the FSMO). The exchange server is also 2003 but is 64 bit. The exchange server has the latest SP installed. Cheers Gerry "Michael Dragone" wrote: > Interesting.

From: Michael Dragone on 11 Sep 2008 15:14 What happens if you force the New-DistributionGroup cmdlet to use the other DC with the -DomainController parameter?

I've just tried that. Here is the result: [PS] C:\Documents and Settings\gerry\My Documents\MyScripts>new-DistributionGroup -Name 'Extended Services' -Type 'Distr ibution' -OrganizationalUnit 'falmouth.local/Users' -SamAccountName 'Extended Services' -Alias 'ExtendedServices' -Domai nController 'jupiter.falmouth.local' New-DistributionGroup : Active Directory operation failed on jupiter.falmouth.local. This error is not retriable. Addit ional information: An attempt was made to modify an object to include an attribute that is not legal for its class. Active directory response: 0000207D: UpdErr: DSID-03150F9C, problem 6002 (OBJ_CLASS_VIOLATION), data 0 At line:1 char:22 + new-DistributionGroup <<<< -Name 'Extended Services' -Type 'Distribution' -OrganizationalUnit 'falmouth.local/Users' -SamAccountName 'Extended Services' -Alias 'ExtendedServices' -DomainController 'jupiter.falmouth.local' So - you can see I get the same error message again. Something seems to have changed the AD schema for distribution groups!!
