The Microsoft Exchange Server Best Practices Analyzer searches the Internet Information Services (IIS) metabase to enumerate the Microsoft-Server-ActiveSync virtual directories. The Best Practice Analyzer verifies that the EnableDirBrowsing flag in the DirBrowseFlags metabase property is set to False for each Microsoft-Server-ActiveSync virtual directory.
If the EnableDirBrowsing flag is not set to False, the Best Practices Analyzer generates the following message:
The '{4}' option of virtual directory '{3}' on server {2} is enabled. It is recommended to disable it. |
To resolve this issue, disable directory browsing on the Microsoft-Server-ActiveSync virtual directories.
