RE: Allow anonymous on default Receive Connector?
You don't want to allow Anonymous on the Default Receive Connectors because they allow all IP's to connect. The better answer is to create a new connector, allow anonymous and specify only the IP's that you are allowing to send. Also, you don't need another IP, Exchange will select the proper connector. Assuming you have more than one HT server role: Be sure HT to HT SMTP is not load balanced, Exchange handles that already.

Moving from Exchange 2003 to 2010. We have an email appliance on the perimeter. I am at the stage where I need to change the mail flow to bypass the 2003 server(s). I have found several migration guides that indicate to simply check the box to allow Anonymous access on the default receive connector on the HT box(es). IIRC, the Exchange training I took had you create a separate receive connector for anonymous access, which would require a separate IP (unless I misunderstand something). The logic I see there would be that I could limit that connector to only accept traffic from desired IP's (e.g. the email appliance and designated internal devices). However, we are using NLB on these servers for CAS functions and it would make life interesting trying to maintain high availability for both. So, the question is, do most folks simply allow Anonymous on the default receive connector, or use a different connector?

In a state of panic I removed the Dag to get users working again. I think from going through the logs that possibly the remote site node got quorum of the witness and then it believed that the databases were up on the remote site (set to Activate only and not automatic by the way). Possibly if I had rebooted the remote server the primary would of got quorum again and allowed me to mount databases?

RE: Dr Site OWA
The term Client Access server array or CAS array does not apply to OWA. It only applies to RPC / MAPI Access. http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee332317.aspx For OWA, it depends on your Active Directory topology. There a many ways to do this, but the simplest is to create a Network Load Balanced (NLB) array (either hardware of software) for each set of CAS servers in an AD site. For a DR only site, you could create a NLB array ahead of time and simply update your DNS A record (i.e. webmail.company.com) to that IP address as part of your DR procedures.

RE: CAS array question
Use two different CAS Array FQDN's, one for each site. In DR, you would change the DNS record to point to the surviving site.

Sounds like you need to set your Receive Connector Authentication Mechanism setting to ExternalAuthoritative. Set-Receiveconnector RC_Name -AuthMechanism TLS,ExternalAuthoritative See the following information: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa996395.aspx ExternalAuthoritative The connection is considered externally secured by using a security mechanism that is external to Exchange. The connection may be an Internet Protocol security (IPsec) association or a virtual private network (VPN). Alternatively, the servers may reside in a trusted physically controlled network. The ExternalAuthoritative authentication method requires the ExchangeServers permission group. This combination of authentication method and security group permits the resolution of anonymous sender e-mail addresses for messages that are received through this connector. This replaces the Resolve anonymous senders function in Exchange Server 2003.

RE: Virtual vs Physical for E2K7 Mailbox Server
Virtualized Scenario : In a failover situation, you would be hosting all 12000 users on 2 virtual servers running on 1 physical host. If utilizing CCR, that would assume you are running the two CCR passive nodes on the remaining physical server as well. There is a lot more information to consider when sizing MBX servers, however my initial calculations says you are going to be over utilized. In a virtual environment, consider N+1 when planning capacity.

Ok, I am trying to get a report on the number of users we have that have not
logged into their mailbox in X amount of days.
So in my experimentation I was going for all users on a specific database that
had no logged in since Jan 7:
get-mailboxstatistics -database 'servername\storage group name\database name' |
where-object {$_.LastLogonTime -lt '01/07/2009'} | sort-object LastLogonTime |
format-table Displayname,LastLogonTime
And it works just fine.
Now the part I am struggling with. How do I get this output outside of the
shell? I tried adding | export-csv d:\testoneweek.csv to the end of it all,
and it created testoneweek.csv, but inside was all garbled. Not useable at all.
Any other commands I may be missing that might work?

RE: Help with powershell syntax
It is definitely possible and I'm sure there are many ways to do this.
One way I believe will work is to make the displayname output of your first
command a variable. Then do a for-each loop and concatenate multiple get- and
select queries in a single command.

Get-mailboxstatistics only pulls specific mailbox information (duh).
Is there any way I can get other information into the table I am creating (like
Alias, Department, etc) or will that prove to be un-doable in this situation?
If I add Alias to the select Displayname,lastlogontime section, it adds it as
a header, but the field is left blank. I understand why it doesn't pull that
information.. Just wondering if there is a way I could perhaps merge a
get-mailbox cmdlet in there somehow.. :)

Moving large mailboxes creates a lot of transaction logs. You might want to consider increasing the amount of space you have allocated for the transaction logs temporarily while you're doing the mailbox moves, then cut it back when you're finished. Transaction logs also compress pretty well, so you might consider enabling compression on the transaction log directories if you can afford the processor load without it hurting your performance too much. From: Karsten, Matthew [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, July 29, 2008 12:59 PM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: Moving Mailboxes Exchange Server 2003 SP2. We have always had all of our users (around 1200) in one large store. This single store had grown to be around 400GB. A while ago we decided to start moving all of our users out of this store and into several different stores organized based on desired configuration. We then began moving mailboxes out of the large store in groups into the other stores. This has been going fine for our smaller users. We now have hit a point where we are at our users that have larger mailboxes (200mb - 2gb). As I am moving them in groups, the stores keep dismounting. Looking at the event logs it appears that they are dismounting because the logs are filling up. I did more looking and it appears that the easiest way to fix this is to enable circular logging. Reading more on circular logging, there seem to be mixed opinions on whether it should be enabled or not. So I guess I have 2 questions. 1. Is circular logging the way to go to deal with this? 2. If so, is there anything I need to watch out for? I had been planning just to enable it to finish the mailbox moves and then just turn it off.

RE: Anyone using CCR in production?
Neil, I guess that eliminates Dell hardware. J Seriously though, according to a recent MS webcast: How Microsoft IT Implemented New Storage Designs for Exchange Server 2007, MS claims they are running 99% of the environment using CCR and DAS. Anyone see that? I for one would like to hear some thoughts on that as well as CCR backup/recovery good, bad and the ugly. Chuck From: Neil Hobson [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, January 23, 2008 4:23 AM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: Anyone using CCR in production? I saw one of our customers last year who is running Exchange 2000 and wants to go to Exchange 2007. No clustering is used in Exchange 2000 and no clustering is required for Exchange 2007 because, as far as I can remember, they said they had only had 1 unscheduled outage in the last 5 years. It's amazing what can be done with well-redundant single servers. J From: Michael B. Smith [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 22 January 2008 18:33 To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: Anyone using CCR in production? I would say that clustering is falling out of favor, not CCR specifically. Clustering adds a lot of cost and a fair bit of maintenance complexity to get a very small up-time improvement. And if your operations folks aren't good - it can lead to worse up-time instead of improved up-time. I'm of the opinion (and it is just that - my opinion) that if you buy good hardware to start with (redundant fans, redundant power supplies, name-brand memory, etc.), that clustering isn't worth the cost. I haven't played with Windows 2008 dispersed clusters yet. They may make it easier and more worthwhile. I dunno yet. Regards, Michael B.

RE: Different Disclaimers Per Domain
What version of Exchange? For 2003, take a look at Ninja Disclaimers. http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/ I've helped clients implement it, and for the price it is very good. You may have to create a Dynamic Distribution Group and configure ND for each DDG. The last time I used the product, it didn't dynamically update the users in a group. Hopefully that has changed. For 2007, you can use Transport Rules. You'll have to do some work with the rule conditions, but it should be trivial.

RE: Anybody want to save my sanity?
Did you try to manage through Exchange Management Console?

So, we are beginning our transition to Exchange 2007. So we currently have Exchange 2003 SP2 mailbox servers and Exchange 2007 SP1 CAS boxes. We are having issues with Active-Sync. Basically, active-sync needs Integrated Windows Authentication enabled on the 2003 Microsoft-Server-ActiveSync virtual directory. I understand this. And according to this: http://msexchangeteam.com/archive/2007/09/04/446918.aspxblocked::http://msexchangeteam.com/archive/2007/09/04/446918.aspx Note: Integrated Windows authentication for /Exchange and /Microsoft-Server-ActiveSync virtual directories must be enabled via Exchange System Manager on Exchange 2003 back-end server. And here is where I start feeling like I am going to go insane. If I go into Exchange System Manager, and expand the server, expand protocols, expand HTTP and right click on Microsoft-Server-Activesync and go to the Access tab I see this: [cid:image001.jpg@01C85772.6AD1ED10] So needless to say I can't seem to set it there. But if I set it using the IIS manager, the setting falls off after a few hours and everything breaks again. Basically it is driving me crazy. I am using the Exchange System Manager actually on the server in question, so they are at the same version level. So what silly stupid thing am I missing here?
