IMC Errors
Dear All, We have been getting the following error messages in Event Viewer on our Exchange Server 5.5 SP3; Event ID 4128 Failure setting file attributes on file E:\exchsrvr\imcdata\in\WFBRQJQS. The error code returned was The system cannot find the file specified. . This is an unexpected error and the IMS is shutting down. Followed by; Event ID 4093 The error code 2 was returned when trying to remove the spool file E:\exchsrvr\imcdata\in\WFBRQJQS. This file may cause duplicate mail to be sent when the server is restarted. These are happening quite often, many times a day. Technet lists nothing for that error message. Our mail server was recently used (abused) for anonymous mail relaying, which has now been disabled. However, our IMCDATA folder is now 1.6gb, and I don't know if this is related to the enormous amounts of mail relayed, or indeed the problem in Event Viewer. Any ideas?

RE: backup
It does sound new to me, but I found very little in the FAQ about back up except what to use. I find the FAQ not very useful. Things like Open File Agent = BAD without an explanation is useless. The only reference I found was to an Exchange 5.5 whitepaper on MS's website. The discuss_exch2000 group has 10 entries for backup. The MS info I found here: http://www.microsoft.com/technet/treeview/default.asp?url=/technet/prodt echnol/exchange/maintain/operate/opsguide/e2kops5.asp It talks about off line storage but it doesn't talk about how I should stop the services to do an off-line backup. Do I have to manually stop everything first? I am backing up to disk using NTBackup.

Because vbs files and what not are only but a part of the problem. People don't get screwed only by vbs files or other scripts. FunLove was an executable. That ripped through networks and is still around. We still battle that one. The security update was not implemented to stop only vbs files and other scripts. It was developed to prevent all types of viruses and worms. The vbs ones just got the most attention recently. > > Sure, you may want to add that is what anti-virus software is > for... but I say MS should just listen to their customers and > figg'n remove the potentially damaging 'features' of their > scripting language. They have listened. Thats why we have the patch. I would think that it would be hard to remove the damaging features of the scripting language when that is what runs Outlook. The forms are built from the very same scripting language. As a VBScript/Outlook/ASP developer I would find it very difficult to do my job if Outlook could not interpret the script that I have in my forms. > > Sure, you may want to add that all a user must do is disable > the vb scripting components of their OS? Really now, so > AGAIN, instead of fixing the problem, let's just remove it > entirely? What about the many situations where basic > scripting is required? Why isn't Sun's JAVA dangerous? It can be. I have seen Java stuff that could do serious damage with the click of the mouse. A in-house Java developer demonstrated that. Click.GrindDead Computer. If someone wanted to they could do just as much damage with a Java app than you can with VBScript. Since Java is such a low level language you don't find the 10th grade script kiddies creating Java apps that do damage. Those same kids can go out and search on the web for 15 minutes and put together a VBScript that will do damage since the only tool you really need is notepad. > > Oh, what's the other common excuse I read > That MS products are so much more popular (ubiquitous?), that > is why there are so many vulnerabilities? > What utter nonsense! > Microsoft products have so many vulnerabilities because their > products have so many more vulnerabilities than other products! > Have you forgotten that there are most Apache servers than > IIS installations and more Novell Servers than Microsoft > Servers. Why are these facts so difficult to understand? The excuse is not that they have more vulnerabilities because they are popular, it because they are popular that they are targets. Since there are more uninformed, untrained and irresponsible people using Windows, viruses and worms spread faster on Windows. I have said it many, many times. If linux was as popular as Windows, you would see about the same amount of Linux viruses. There are some linux viruses out there, but the penetration isnt that great because it isnt that common place. The Apache argument is becoming less and less valid. If you do more research on the Apache/IIS debate you will see that even NetCraft is modifying their stats to reflect that Linux installations can have thousands upon thousands of TLDs on a single server where as IIS averages around a few hundred.

Hello? Mike are you there? (Apologizes for the sarcasm...but...) For the last time (I HOPE), it's not about clicking on .exe files!! It never has been about click on .exe files!! It's always been about scripting files that execute simply by having a preview pane open or masquerading as a benign graphics file or a seemingly innocent MS Word document or MS Excel spreadsheet or... just about anything else Microsoft has had their hands in. Why is this so difficult to understand? Sure, you may want to add that is what anti-virus software is for... but I say MS should just listen to their customers and figg'n remove the potentially damaging 'features' of their scripting language. Sure, you may want to add that all a user must do is disable the vb scripting components of their OS? Really now, so AGAIN, instead of fixing the problem, let's just remove it entirely? What about the many situations where basic scripting is required? Why isn't Sun's JAVA dangerous? Oh, what's the other common excuse I read That MS products are so much more popular (ubiquitous?), that is why there are so many vulnerabilities? What utter nonsense! Microsoft products have so many vulnerabilities because their products have so many more vulnerabilities than other products! Have you forgotten that there are most Apache servers than IIS installations and more Novell Servers than Microsoft Servers. Why are these facts so difficult to understand? Do I hate Microsoft like some of you have erroneously assumed? Of course not! For the most part Microsoft was very successful in making computers available to the masses and making them easy to use. In addition, from my point of view, Microsoft provides some of the best/friendliest support in the business. Comparatively speaking, Novell could learn much from Microsoft; those %^#!@$% are clueless when it comes to caring about their less than 1000 user clients. However, because Microsoft is the most ubiquitous OS in the world, they have an additional RESPONSIBILITY to make for damn sure their products work properly (reliable, bug free and vulnerability free as much as a billion dollar company can). In my opinion, Microsoft has done a piss-poor job especially when comparing them to Sun, Novell and even free Linux. >If you don't know how to drive are you going to blame the person that >runs into you?

RE: Outlook blocked access to the following potentially unsafe - FOR THE LAST TIME!
Its all a matter of experience. If I had to manage a Novell network by myself it would take me a hell of a lot longer to test stuff and configure things than my NT/2k boxes. Also, with Linux. I can guarantee my NT/2k boxes are much more secure that my Linux boxes. The reason is my level of experience. I have not spent enough time diving into Linux. I am a Linux hobbyist. Anyone that makes a blanket statement about TCO of any platform is a beer short of a six pack. It all comes down to experience and resources.

Huh?? So are implying that every other mail platform is dangerous because they allow .com and .exe files? Gee, I thought the real issue (read: problem) was the way Microsoft processed their 'special' files (e.g. asp, vb*). Thank Microsoft, you must be joking? Let's see, in a typical work: I spend about 3-6 hours research and testing (YES I really do test both in my test lab and on my workstation VMs) Microsoft's latest bug patches. For Linux, probably about 1-3 hours per week. For Netware 5, probably not much more than 1 hour per week. The point being, Microsoft can make it easier but all I see is supporting MS products is becoming more and more costly.

RE: Site Connector between Disparate Orgs
There are three types of site connectors, RPC, X.400 and SMTP. (I'm using my own terminology because the standard terminology is confusing.) Any of these three let you connect sites using the "Connected Sites" tab. For this to work, your sites must have the exact same organization name, and it is case sensitive. You may use the SMTP or X.400 connector to connect two sites in different organizations for messaging, but you can't use the "Connected Sites" tab. Because of this, the standard directory replication and public folder replication mechanisms will not work. You can buy a third-party tool to do directory replication, like Microsoft Metadirectory Server, or Compaq LDAP Directory Synchronization Utility (LDSU). You can try using the Interorg Synch tool from the Back Office Resource Kit to replicate public folder content.

RE: Forest and domain prep
Hi there If it helps you at all, the actual forestprep proceedure only took about 20 minutes (just did this last night). However, it took over an hour to replicate to all the servers. I actually called Microsoft last night because I thought there was a problem. Thank goodness the Microsoft guy on the other end told me he'll send me a certain white paper and refund me my 245.00. I came in early today and started the upgrade on the Exchange 2000 server [but that's another post;)].

So I was afraid that it could take all weekend on the production servers. Also if anyone knows... I am going to create a native mode child domain so the delegations, distribution lists, etc will come across properly during the in place upgrade. Does this sound like a valid method? We tested out so many different ways to minimize the impact on the end user and we finally had to break down and do the following method: 1. Offline backup of current Exchange 5.5 (currently it's a NT4 BDC Cluster) 2. Dump Public Folder permission dump with PFADMIN. 3. Shut down current Exchange 5.5 (fall back if everything fails) 4. Restore database onto a new Win2k (non DC), Exch 5.5 staging server and bring it up 5. Create Native Mode child domain (so DL's and delegations can have a place to be stored. TechNet says that these will be lost if there isn't a native mode domain available) 6. Do an in place upgrade of 5.5 to Exch 2000 (this is what everyone is nervous about) 7. Cross our fingers and toes and bring up the server 8. If everything works, we will build a Win2k, Exch 2k cluster server on the SAN and join it to the current Exchange Site. 9. Migrate users to the new Cluster server and shut down the staging server. 10. Move Public Folders and import the PFADMIN dump of permissions. 11. If things fail during any of these steps, we will just plug the old NT4 Cluster back in and users will get their email access back. Since the site will remain the same, we won't have to visit the users desktops, which is a big advantage. Anyone have any recommendations on this plan?

Offline backup of current Exchange 5.5 (currently it's a NT4 BDC Cluster) 2. Dump Public Folder permission dump with PFADMIN. 3. Shut down current Exchange 5.5 (fall back if everything fails) 4. Restore database onto a new Win2k (non DC), Exch 5.5 staging server and bring it up 5. Create Native Mode child domain (so DL's and delegations can have a place to be stored. TechNet says that these will be lost if there isn't a native mode domain available) 6. Do an in place upgrade of 5.5 to Exch 2000 (this is what everyone is nervous about) 7. Cross our fingers and toes and bring up the server 8. If everything works, we will build a Win2k, Exch 2k cluster server on the SAN and join it to the current Exchange Site. 9. Migrate users to the new Cluster server and shut down the staging server. 10. Move Public Folders and import the PFADMIN dump of permissions. 11. If things fail during any of these steps, we will just plug the old NT4 Cluster back in and users will get their email access back. Since the site will remain the same, we won't have to visit the users desktops, which is a big advantage. Anyone have any recommendations on this plan? Maybe something I'm missing or some steps I can skip? Thanks a lot for your help and hope everyone is having a good Friday.

RE: Upgrading to W2K
It can be done, but it can get really ugly. I tend to prefer avoiding upgrades whenever possible. Usually that's always. If you can get a big enough box to host Exchange temporarily, you can move everyone to it, rebuilt the current box to how you want it, then move everyone back. Use the move server method in the FAQ.
