When attempting to establish a new federation trust on a freshly installed Exchange 2010 server the New-ExchangeCertificate portion
runs but then the New-FederationTrust portion fails with the following error:
Error:
Unable to access the Federation Metadata document from the federation partner. Detailed information: "The remote name could not be resolved: 'internet.mydomain.com'".
(I have replaced our actual corporate domain with 'mydomain' above)
I have tried using a cert that is not self-signed with the same result. We are not using a proxy and I have verified connectivity through our firewall from the exchange server to all MS networks that I could identify. We also have an existing Exchange 2003 server that is functioning properly. I have also verified no DNS or WINS entries exist that would cause name resolution problems. I can successfully tracert to nexus.microsoftonline-p.com which, as I understand, is the MS Federation Gateway. I have also run all tests on https://www.testexchangeconnectivity.com/ and they were successful.
Any ideas?
