Question : Exchange 2010 Corrupted Receive Connectors in an inconsistenent state

We are running Exchange 2007 in production.  When putting in my first Exchange 2010 hub transport server, it attempts to bring in all my receive connectors.  I get a warning that it cannot load all the data and does not list any of my pre-existing connectors.  One example is below:

Warning:
The object {2007HubTransportServerName}\{Rule Name} has been corrupted, and it's in an inconsistent state. The following validation errors happened:

Warning:
You must set the value for the PermissionGroups parameter to ExchangeServers when you set the AuthMechanism parameter to a value of ExternalAuthoritative.

Answer : Exchange 2010 Corrupted Receive Connectors in an inconsistenent state

The trick was to change the relay connectors to be only Tls for Auth and Permission groups to be anonymous and exchange servers.  Wtih the shell the following command worked:

Get-ReceiveConnector -Identity "connector name" | Set-ReceiveConnector -AuthMechanism "Tls" -PermissionGroups "AnonymousUsers,ExchangeServers"
