Access control list (ACL) inheritance is blocked
[This topic is intended to address a specific issue called out by the Exchange Server Analyzer Tool. You should apply it only to systems that have had the Exchange Server Analyzer Tool run against them and are experiencing that specific issue. The Exchange Server Analyzer Tool, available as a free download, remotely collects configuration data from each server in the topology and automatically analyzes the data. The resulting report details important configuration issues, potential problems, and nondefault product settings. By following these recommendations, you can achieve better performance, scalability, reliability, and uptime.

Microsoft Exchange Server 2007 or Exchange Server 2010 setup cannot continue because the required permissions have not been able to propagate.
Exchange setup requires that inheritance for permissions be enabled on the following Exchange objects:
Exchange Organization object
Exchange Administrative Group object
Exchange Servers container object
Exchange Address List object
Exchange Public Folder object
Exchange Public Folder tree object
Failure to enable inheritance for permissions on these objects may result in mail flow problems, store mounting issues, and other service outages.
To resolve this issue, make sure that the "Allow permissions to propagate to this object and child objects" setting is enabled for the object, and then rerun Exchange Server 2007 or Exchange 2010 setup.

Warning
If you incorrectly modify the attributes of Active Directory objects when you use ADSI Edit, the LDP tool, or another LDAP version 3 client, you may cause serious problems. These problems may require that you reinstall Microsoft Windows Serverâ„¢ 2003, Exchange Server, or both. Modify Active Directory object attributes at your own risk.
