I am trying to get OLSync installed following these directions http://help.outlook.com/en-us/140/dd490626.aspx.

I am stuck at step 4. I have installed Microsoft Windows SDK for Windows 7 and .NET Framework 3.5 SP1 but sn.exe is still not recognized as a command. Can someone help me get this going?

Hi,

The command sn.exe is located in "C:\Program Files\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v6.0A\Bin" .

"C:\Program Files\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v6.0A\Bin\sn.exe" -Vr "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Identity Integration Server\UIShell\Microsoft.DirectoryServices.MetadirectoryServices.Config.dll"

Run the command from there. screenshot example below:

Patrick.

Did this solve your problem?

I cannot install the SDK as I am using Server 2003 so I don't have SN.EXE on my system. I am having the same trouble with the Eventid 1042. As stated in this thread, I've uninstalled the agent after it failed, stopped the ILM service and it still bombs out when trying to authenticate giving this message:

Here is what I see in my application log:
