This article describes the diagnostics logging settings that allow monitoring of Outlook Web Access (OWA) activity. MORE INFORMATION ================ To monitor OWA client connections to the directory service and the information store on the Exchange Server computer: 1. Start the Microsoft Exchange Server Administrator progam. 2. Click the server you want to monitor, and on the File menu, click Properties. 3. Click the Diagnostics Logging tab. 4. Click MSExchangeDS in the left pane, and in the right pane, set Security, ExDS Interface, MAPI Interface, Directory Access, LDAP Interface, and Name Resolution to Maximum. 5. Click the plus sign (+) by MSExchangeIS in the left pane, click System, and then in right pane, set Connections and General to Maximum. 6. Under MSExchangeIS, click Private, and set General and Logons to Maximum. If you look at one logon through OWA, you see three MAPI Interface events from the directory service, then a Connections event to the information store, then a Logons event, again to the information store, and then another Connections event to the information store. The following events are recorded in the application log in Event Viewer if the above listed diagnostic logging is enabled. Several events such as 1136, 1137, and 1170 may appear multiple times during one user's logon. Event ID 1170 MSExchangeDS MAPI Interface A client process connected to the directory with remote procedure call (RPC) string binding ncalrpc:SERVER1[MSExchangeDS_LPC].
