11122 » When you run the Exchange ActiveSync Certificate authentication tool in Windows Server 2003 you receive 'The security ID Security is Invalid'? (21-Dec-06)

When you run EASAuthUploadXMLtoAD.vbs to upload the customized .xml configuration file to the Active Directory directory service in Microsoft Windows Server 2003, you receive:

"The security ID Security is Invalid"
error code 80070539
Line 250 char 9

This issue occurs when you upload to a non-English version of Windows Server 2003, because the EASAuthUploadXMLtoAD.vbs file contains the following line:

Const strDomainUsers = "Authenticated Users"

To workaround this behavior, replace Authenticated Users with the correct group name in your language.

If you are running a Dutch version of Windows Server 2003, the line would read:

Const strDomainUsers = "Geverifieerde Gebruikers"
