XFOR: Notes Connector Corrupts CR Display Name When Dirsync Occurs over a Slow WAN Link

ID: Q236900

The information in this article applies to:

Microsoft Exchange Server, version 5.5

SYMPTOMS

The custom recipient's display name might be corrupted during a directory synchronization (dirsync) between Lotus Notes server and Exchange Server over a WAN connection.

CAUSE

When Lsdxa is handling buffers transferring from a writer to a reader (two sides of the Directory Exchange Agent [DXA]), the source pointer is miscalculated to a position that is one character off when handling escape characters. The fix re-adjusts it back to the right position.

RESOLUTION

To resolve this problem, obtain the latest service pack for Exchange Server version 5.5. For additional information, please see the following article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:

The English version of this fix should have the following file attributes or later:

Component: DXA

File name	Version
Lsdxa.exe	5.5.2647.0

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft Exchange Server version 5.5. This problem was first corrected in Exchange Server 5.5 Service Pack 3.
