Re: Exch 2010 Activesync issue

2010-10-03 Thread David Baca
I have seen issues with driod 2.1 and 2010.  The mailbox gets out of sync and 
starts showing incorrect message data.  I.E.  the to/from will be correct but 
the body will be from a different message.  This did not happen at first sync 
but did show it's ugly head shortly there after.  2.2 (froyo) seems to be a lot 
more stable.

I recently deployed Exchange 2010 for our home office. Got Windows Mobile, 
BlackBerry, and Droid working without a hitch.  RE: latest Android, Debi is 
running the latest version with her “X” so I figure if there is an issue, it’s 
not on the Exch2010 side.
 
Even the dreaded crApple iPad works and connects through the Exch2010 
ActiveSync.
 
Works great through the MSFT firewall – but that goes without saying J

I've used the WM5 and 6 emulators quite a bit. A lot better than trying to keep 
track of multiple devices. Plus, it makes capturing images of the Windows

Yep, that's pretty much what I've been seeing, was just hoping that someone had 
figured it out.

What I'm really trying to do at the moment, is simply test our Activesync 
setup, 
to make sure it works, and we don't have any WM devices around.  My phone guy 
is 
supposed to be getting me a couple of WM test devices soon, though, so we'll 
see 
then.

There are a number of known issues with Android 2.2. Google has fixed it, but 
the fix is still in the beta stream not the released stream.

The workaround is to use touchdown until a permanent fix is released.

Subject: Exch 2010 Activesync issue

Anyone here using Droid phones with Exchange 2010 Activesync?  Anyone get it to 
work?  I've done Google research, found tons of references to issues with Droid 
and Exchange, but not many at all referencing 2010.  Also, our setup in the lab 
is going through TMG 2010, so that may have something to do with it too, 
although we did follow the Technet article for publishing Activesync.  The 
error 
I'm getting is Login to the account failed, please try again.  I've tried 
with 
SSL, for which we're using a wildcard cert from Verisign, and without SSL, no 
difference.

If anyone has gotten it to work, without using Touchdown, I'd appreciate 
hearing 
about it.

Thanks,

Joe

The changes in Outlook 2007 SP2 were backported from Outlook 2010. They have 
the same performance profile.
 
OSTs up to 100 GB were tested.
 
However, you need to have memory and fairly fast disk. The OST format is disk

Exchange 2010 and Outlook 2010 - Personal Archive Search

Hello Everyone,

I had a question regarding exchange 2010 and outlook 2010.  Can you do a search 
in outlook 2010 that searches both your personal archive (new exchange 2010 
feature) and your mailbox or can you just search one at a time?  I know there 
are some E-Discovery search features built into Exchange but I want the user to 
be able to do full personal archive and mailbox searches from outlook.

Has anyone tested this yet or have any experience trying this?

Subject: RE: BESX  Blackberry Enterprise express


Having got my hands on the software - it is for Exchange only. 
 
Fully supported with Exchange 2003, 2007 and 2010. 
Fully supported installed on the same server as Exchange – which includes SBS 
2003 and 2008. Fully 64 bit. Although there is an issue with MP3 audio files 
when the server is installed on Windows 2008. It looks like for fully 
functionality you have to install it on Windows 2003. That is a bit poor from 
RIM. 

The lack of the over the air sync applies to BIS based clients only. If you 
have the Enterprise plan on the device then you can over the air activate as 
normal. 
 
You can also activate it through the Blackberry Admin Service. 
 
The major limitation is the security policies – full BES gives you something 
like 400, you get 35 on Express. 
 
The documentation is here:
http://docs.blackberry.com/en/admin/subcategories/?userType=2category=BlackBerry+Enterprise+Server+Express+for+Microsoft+Exchange
 
It includes the full config and admin guide, plus an Excel spread sheet of the 
policies available. 
 
Very early days, I am working on an installation at the moment, and will 
probably blog on it later in the week. However I have heard from Howie at 
port3101.org that he has a number of BIS only devices working fine.

Re: Microsoft Forefront...anyone using..opinions

2009-06-10 Thread David Baca
Pete,

I am using forefront hosted filtering in my environment and have found it to be 
a good product.  It does all of our filtering.  We host our own mail and don't 
use the on-premise solution.  I know they have had an issue once in a while 
with their smart host(which i don't use).  They have an rss feed about issues 
they are having and notifies the feed when they are resolved.  The forefront 
dashboard just received an upgrade recently. The only annoying thing i found is 
that it does not deal with multiple domain names very well.  Meaning that 
instead of having one user with 3 different alias'  you would have to create a 
new instance for each domain.   Not perfect but i am told they are working on 
this for future releases.  For minor issues the tech support is ok. IMHO - it's 
a fine filtering product - as far as spam and virus' are concerned.

I apologize if this came through a second time but didn't see it get posted.

I have a off topic subject.  We have the opportunity to possibly adjust our 
license agreement with Microsoft that will entitle us to Forefront both hosted 
and on Premise solution for next to nothing.  We went through the hosted 
presentation, and it looks similar to other hosted solutions like Proofpoint 
and Postini but considerable less expensive.  They have an quarantine area, 5 
engines etc and the cost is next to nothing.   We could also install ForeFront 
on out backend servers and hub servers and replace our existing TrendMicro 
software which would have an additional cost savings.  I'm looking for feedback 
on anyone who is using the Forefront product line and their opinions of it as a 
hosted solution and on-premise deployment.   We are native Exchange 2007 and do 
not use edge servers but from what I see none of this would require any changes 
to our current infrastructure for onsite and hosted solution.

Third party Spamfilter for Outlook 2007

2009-04-23 Thread David Baca
I thought i would pass this email on to see if anyone at sunbelt had a answer 
for how to deal with this.








In addition to our corporate spam gateway, I’ve been
using a local spamfilter for a partner called iHatespam for a few years. The
product is great.
However, the latest version (the only one supporting Office
07) uses a different method of scanning email for spam. IHateSpam version 4
used heuristic methods while IHateSpam version 5 scans using a Global Rating
Scan, there are no local definitions stored. The Enemies/Block list is no
longer a feature therefore, I can’t use the list of email addresses collected
over the years. 
Do you know or use a similar product which has an option to
import blocklist and actually works well? (The built in Outlook filter has a 
limit
which constantly produces a pop-up reminding you of this fact).

Hello All,

I was wondering if you had any suggestion or can share your experiences on 
phone system ideas for an office of three execs and one receptionist.  I am 
looking for a low cost solution.  I have considered fonality and avaya  which 
can get expensive roughly 10 -15k with installation.


Thanks in advance.

What about getting a voip card in your current pbx 
and just getting them viop phones? You could have separate DID or hunt 
groups or what not. 
 
A long time ago I saw that Panasonic had small 
digital phone systems that were inexpensive and nice. Maybe you could take a

1st domain logon

2008-10-21 Thread David Baca
Hello All,


I have question regarding that initial domain log-on.   I have a user who is 
located across the country and has a new laptop that i need to configure.  I 
would ideally like to have him setup under his domain user account/profile and 
use cached account going forward.  The computer is added to the domain but I 
can't seem to find a way to log on to the domain using the users domain 
credentials.  I know you're supposed at least have logged in one in order to 
use cached credentials but what i am wondering is if i can somehow do that 
initial login remotely.  I am using a sonicwall device so the option to start 
that up before login is not available.  My only other thought was to put up a 
windows vpn server setup a pptp vpn to connect before i login and see if that 
would work.  I am hoping for an easier alternative. Note the new machine is 
vista ultimate.


Thanks in advance,


David

I have a user who wants to use their own laptop for business use.  He likes the 
way it's set up but I have always been the one who says it's better to have the 
company buy one and keep personal and business separate.  I see this could be 
an issue of privacy and also an issue of control in that i have no real say on 
what is installed on his machine and what if any policies can be inforced.  
Your thoughts?  I don't want to be paranoid and i see the cost savings in 
having him use his own computer but am i asking for trouble in the long run.

Appointment issue

2008-06-04 Thread David Baca
I have an issue where a meeting organizer (actually his assistant) creates a 
meeting request but also includes the organizer as one of the attendees.  They 
do this so the organizer is aware of the meeting.  The problem is that when 
they receive this meeting request the calendar shows the appointment as 
tentative instead of busy after it has been processed by the outlook sniffer. 
 The user then has to go into the calendar and resave the meeting as busy.  I 
believe i can turn this feature off by deselecting the process requests and 
responses on arrival option but i believe this may affect other functions of 
the sniffer as well.  What i have been told is that it has not always worked 
that way until recently but all the documentation says that's it has or at 
least it's supposed to work that way.  Any feedback or experience or possible 
workaround would be great to hear.

Re: Appointment issue

2008-06-04 Thread David Baca
Yes your first statement is correct.  If the appointment is a month or two from 
now he wouldn't necessarily be aware of the appointment until the reminder.  
The issue being that the assistant would like to notify the User of the 
appointment prior to the appointment reminder in email format without having to 
write up another email.  

As far as i know you cannot accept an invite to your own meeting.  Which 
logically makes sense but like i said this wasn't working logically a few

over 30%, I wouldn't even conceive of doing a defrag.

I would tend to buy a cheap RAID-1 USB disk, like from Lacie or StorageTek. 
Hook it up. Mount a new database on the USB disk. Move all the mailboxes to it. 
Drop the old database. Recreate it on the old disk. Move the mailboxes back. 
Little to no downtime whatsoever.

Subject: New to this List - Recovering Exchange Free Space Question

I have just deleted a bunch of old users off of my exchange server.  I now have 
a bunch of free space available within the exchange database.  I only have 
about 10% of actual space on the disk itself which i believe is causing some 
degradation in performance.  I would like to get that space back but I really 
can't afford to take the server off line and defrag it for ten hours (100gb 
database).  Do you know of any other alternatives?

Cool, 5 stores, but I would presume the 75GB Standard limit is still in place 
for the total of all stores (excluding RSG)?

Exchange 2007 supports five stores/five storage groups in standard edition. But 
yes, if Exchange 2003 or 2000, that is a true limitation.

Move-mailbox will not move a dirty mailbox, nor can a mailbox in the process 
of being moved be logged onto.

In this scenario, isn't it true that...

 users whose mailboxes are being moved forth and back must be logged off 
during the moves
 must be Exchange Enterprise version to create another database

Is the only thing on the disk the exchange database?
