Exchange 2003 using a soft client. Seems that the Web based Outlook works fine. The client software is very slow when updating In/Outbox and eventually looses connectivity. Not sure about the SSL side of things. Will check.
Bear with me, here. So some of my terminology may be a bit off. I am a routing tech not an Exchange admin so I tend to look at things at the lower layers of the stack by nature. Though I hadn't considered problems with the SSL. No problems are being reported from within the European continent. What I am seeing are a couple of major outages between Chicago and Brussels, Belgium. Leading me to initially think that the session was timing out or a Name Server had lost peering/neighbor once traffic hit Europe. I did try a ping and traceroute on a different T-1 peer and found the difference to be a difference by a factor of 500% less latency. However, if your saying you have folks with a 500ms ping with no problems then there is definitely more than meets the eye. Will check the local caching as well. To be absolutely sure. Hopefully, thats obtuse enough, lol. I feel slightly out of my element, here. ; ) Thanks! Brent Eads Employee Technology Solutions, Inc.

I take it you mean a client at a remote site? Which version of Exchange? I’m taking it that you mean an outlook client accessing an Exch2003 svr, if so then an outlook over SSL connection will be fine, especially if you cache locally… I’ve got clients out on lines 500ms + Cheers, Rob Robert Rutherford QuoStar Solutions Limited T: +44 (0) 8456 440 331 F: +44 (0) 8456 440 332 M: +44 (0) 7974 249 494 E: [EMAIL PROTECTED] W: www.quostar.com From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 12 December 2006 17:27 To: ActiveDir@mail.activedir.org Subject: [ActiveDir] Remote Exchange Access and Timing All; This may be slightly off topic. Does anyone remember how fast Exchange needs the line speed to be for remote access? I am working with a client that is having time out issues with a 248ms (average) packet time. With some static routing I might be able to get this number down to say 125ms but my fear is that will likewise be too slow. >From a networking (routing) side of things I can see some peering loss in Europe so there is no really easy answer save building special static routes or PPP connections, etc. Thanks!
