Deep Traversal ExOLEDB Search Requires Administrator Permissions 1

[keenanbr]

I get Error Type: Microsoft OLE DB Provider For Exchange (0x80550023) Submitted SQL statement was incomplete. When I attempt a deep traversal of the exchange database. Searching microsoft, I found this known issue

http://support.microsoft.com/kb/309821

The solution is

1. Stop the Web store.
2. Set the following registry key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\MSExchangeIS\[MACHINE]\Public-[mdbGUID]\Database Security Descriptor
To override the defaults, create a self-relative security descriptor that contains the discretionary access control list (DACL) you want as the default. Transfer the entire buffer that holds the SECURITY_DESCRIPTOR structure to the REG_BINARY value for this registry key.

NOTE: This security descriptor should not be in Exchange Server transfer encoded format. The security descriptor should be a standard Microsoft Windows NT security descriptor.
3. Restart the Web store.


I don't understand the solution. Can anyone help.

Regards,

I don't understand step 2

Do you know how to use regedit, or is that the problem?

Thanks for the links. No intention of doing this myself but want to know what's going on.
