I have a small enterprise with both Exchange 2010 and 2013 installed. Yesterday I began moving mailboxes from Exchange 2010 to Exchange 2013 as I expect to retire Exchange 2010. Exchange 2013 is installed on a Windows Server 2012 box that is a DC. Everything works fine except when I try to connect to the XCH 2013 server locally using Outlook 2013. Outlook keeps complaining that it can't open any folders/mailbox because Exchange is not online.
So I download the Microsoft Connectivity Analyzer tool, which I ran on several machines. It works fine with no issues except on the XCH 2013/WS 2012 box. When I run it there, I discover there is an Autodiscover issue which is probably why Outlook 2013 is unable to connect. Any ideas on how to fix this? Text below.
