Symptoms

When you set up OAuth authentication between an Exchange Server 2013 hybrid on-premises installation and Office 365, OAuth authentication may fail in a proxy scenario.If the on-premises Exchange organization can successfully connect to Exchange Online, you may receive the following error:

System.Net.WebException: Unable to connect to the remote server ---> System.Net.Sockets.SocketException: A connection attempt failed because the connected party did not properly respond after a period of time, or established connection failed because connected host has failed to respond IP_Address:443 at System.Net.Sockets.Socket.EndConnect(IAsyncResult asyncResult)

If the direction from Exchange Online organization to the on-premises Exchange organization is successful, the Free/Busy information works only from a cloud user to an Exchange on-premises user.

Cause

This issue occurs because OAuth authentication does not honor InternetWebProxy. This causes an OAuth token retrieval failure.

Resolution

To fix this issue, install Cumulative Update 12 for Exchange Server 2013 or a later cumulative update for Exchange Server 2013.
