RE: Holidays in Outlook 2000 Problem
Here are some instructions I wrote that we posted for our users (you need to add the Outlook.txt file). There is also a separate article, Q197415, that tells you how to update shared calendars in Public Folders. 1. Save this file to the following location on your PC (right click on the file and choose "Save As"): c:\program files\microsoft office\office\1033 NOTE: Click "YES" if you receive the message "The file OUTLOOK.TXT already exists. Do you want to replace the existing file?" 2. From your Inbox, click on the menu bar and choose Tools, Options, Calendar Options, Add Holidays. 3. Click on the "Calendar Options..." button 4. Click on the "Add Holidays..." button 5. Check the boxes for the holidays in the countries you want added to your calendar. Click OK. This will add holidays from 2003-2006. **THIS IS ONLY FOR YOUR PERSONAL CALENDARS, NOT FOR SHARED CALENDARS IN PUBLIC FOLDERS*** -Original Message- From: Brian Ko [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, January 08, 2003 8:03 AM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: Holidays in Outlook 2000 Problem This message was sent back in mid December, but I thought I send another email with updated info about Outlook 2000 Holiday patch from Microsoft. http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=7d4d9017-8d4e-4 963-8ba7-d2e91d491f5e&DisplayLang=en Above patch will add Holidays 'till 2007 to Outlook 2000 clients.

It's like they aren't reoccurring. We are running Exchange 2000 and have about 750 users. I have tried changing the computer clock to 2003 and then adding holidays but they still only populate 2002. I can't seem to find any KB articles on this. Has anyone seen this behavior?

All of these viruses are in the same folder and same file. This is one of the messages that i recieved, Virus Alert!! VBS_SLUG.B is detected on KAREN() in Logistics domain. Infected file: C:\Program Files\folder.htt Detection date: 2002.12.03 06:20:22 Action: Clean Failed (Quarantine Failed) I went to Trend.com to search more information and didnt find an exact match on this virus. I also called trend and they said they didnt have any info on this virus and that i should send them the virus asap. I told them that I couldnt cause i deleted the files that were Quarantined on the server. So how does trend not know anything about a virus that was detected by their program (office scan). Has anyone seen this virus before. I also scanned all the computers that were suppose to be infected and recieved no notifications of them being infected.

I was only concerned with the info up on the server. And you are correct in that I do want it to wipe out everything on the server.

E2K Backups and Service Packs
This is an interesting situation we just encountered that I thought others would be interested in. In our test environment, we recently upgraded one of the E2K servers to SP3. Afterwards, for various reasons, we needed to go back to an SP2 version of the database, so we tried to restore the older databases, but were getting JET errors. After talking with Microsoft, we found out that once an Exchange Server is upgraded to a newer service pack, you cannot recover an older-version database using the later-version Exchange server. This applies to 3rd party backup software, as well as native Win2K backups. This means that if, for compliance or business reasons, you need to keep older versions of your databases archived, you need to know which version of the software that database last ran under. In addition you would need to make sure that when you restore, you must do so on a server that is patched only to that level of Service Pack. Apparently this applies to the Private IS only, and not Public IS. Once you mount the older-version database on its corresponding server, you can then dismount it and move it to a newer version server so that you can use it (if necessary). If you have any other information about this, I'd be interested in reading your responses.

RE: Service account logons - hacker?
How about Mailbox Manager (message cleanup), or some other 3rd party product like ActiveDL. -Original Message- From: Dandy, Jim [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, August 13, 2002 12:23 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: Service account logons - hacker? Under what circumstances would a logon occur on the Exchange service account? I was looking through my event log and found that the service account logs on occasionally. Often it is between 2:00 AM and 3:30 AM but it doesn't occur every day and it doesn't appear to be closely associated with any particular event such as a system backup or reboot. I'm wondering if I have a hacker might be logging on using the service account? I changed the service account password yesterday and still got a logon last night at 3:11 AM. There were no failed logons. Thanks for your comments.
