Exchange Server 2010 – Remote host was refused

Posted in Exchange Server | 2 Comments | 13,206 views | 30/08/2010 08:25

You may get this error when you try to open Exchange Server 2010 Management Console:

Connecting to remote server failed with the following error message: The connection to the specified remote host was refused. Verify that the WS-Management service is running on the remote host and configured to listen for requests on the correct port and HTTP URL. For more information, see the about_Remote_Troubleshooting Help topic

Resolution:
1) Check the applications pools. Start Exchange pool if it is stopped.
2) Ping server name. Be sure, ipv4 is used for communication.
3) Make sure C:\Windows\system32\iis_ssi.dll is exist.
