Consider the following scenario:
-
A trunk uses an Active Directory authentication repository.
-
You publish the trunk to a server that is running Microsoft Forefront Unified Access Gateway (UAG) 2010.
-
The Active Directory authentication repository is set to Use local active directory forest authentication.
-
You try to log on to the trunk.
In this scenario, your logon is unsuccessful.
Symptoms
This issue occurs because Forefront UAG 2010 issues an incorrect DNS query. The incorrect query results in a list of servers. Included in this list are domain controllers that are not global catalog servers. Forefront UAG assumes incorrectly that the list contains only global catalog servers. Because Forefront UAG tries to contact a domain controller that is assumed to be a global catalog server, Forefront UAG cannot complete the authentication process.
Cause
To resolve this problem, install the service pack that is described in the following Microsoft Knowledge Base article:
