Exchange 5.5 restore slow
Hi all, Exchange 5.5 SP4, Windows NT 4.0 SP 6, NT Backup I have recently run 2 test restores of my exchange server and the restore of the Information Store has been extremely slow, only .5 Gig per hour. (The store is 11 Gig.) In the past, I've been able to restore in 2.5 hours. Just wondering if anyone has come across this and has any suggestions on how to troubleshoot? Tried different tapes, tape drives and cables... Hardware used - Compaq Proliant, Dual 3 Gig Xeon Proc, 2 Gig RAM, Quantum DLT 8000 Thanks in advance. _ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Web Interface: http://intm-dl.sparklist.com/cgi-bin/lyris.pl?enter=exchangetext_mode=lang=english To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
RE: Outlook 2003.
Nope. Exchange CAL for 2000 lets you use Outlook 2002 (XP). You must purchase an Exchange 2003 CAL in order to use Outlook 2003. (You can still purchase Outlook or Office 2003 separately and use that with an Exchange 2000 CAL to connect to an Exchange 2000 server). -Original Message- From: Erick Thompson [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, October 16, 2003 4:10 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: Outlook 2003. I don't think I was totally clear. I was wondering if the Exchange CAL allowed me to use Outlook 2003 only (not all of Office). I wouldn't assume that it would allow me to use all of office.

I found KB article kb817378 which talks about having not run /domainprep in the parent domain, which I hadnt. Just /forestprep. So I went back and ran /domainprep as well. It then said I also had to configure RUS in the parent domain OR have a GC in the child domain. I have 1 GC in the parent domain and 2 GC's in the child domain. I tried to install RUS in the parent domain but on the second step of the wizard where you select the computer Exchange is running on is greyed out and I can do nothing but cancel.

When they send to external recipients the mail takes ages to be delivered, e.g. we sent a test message on Thursday afternoon and it didn't arrive in the external mailbox until Friday morning!

I was playing with my home computer last night trying to upgrade it to Windows 2003. My machine is a Dell desktop. One hard drive with two partitions - C: and D:. C: is Windows ME D: was Windows 2000 Advanced Server. The Advanced server had been dcpromo-ed looong time ago. So when I started the upgrade to Windows 2003 Enterprise version, the setup detected the presence of AD and told me that first I should do ADPREP /forestprep and then ADPREP /domainprep. Did that. No problems. Started installing Windows 2003 Enterprise. No problems. It went through the first two stages, copied temporary files to the C: drive and rebooted. After the reboot it went back into the Setup. Everything looked OK, the setup screen showed up. Then it started checking disks and all of a sudden tells me that drives C: and D: are inaccessible (possibly corrupted). Only two choices - Enter to Retry or F3 to restart. After the restart tried to go back to setup - same result. Then I tried to boot into the Windows 2000 Advanced Server (choices were Windows ME, Windows 2000 Advanced Server, and Setup). It looks like Windows 2000 Advanced Server starts OK - it is obviously finding the necessary files to start: first the black screen with white bars across the bottom of the screen. Then the graphical splash screen with blue bars. The blue bars stop half-way and a few seconds later I get a BSOD telling me INACCESSIBLE_BOOT_DEVICE. I am looking for ideas as to what it is that it can't access. I installed another copy of Windows 2000 Adv Server in a separate directory, booted fine, and looked at the old WINNT files - everything looks OK. Does anyone know what Windows 2003 installation modifies to cause an inaccessible boot device?

RE: POP3 clients external mail delayed
Look at the headers of the messages that were received by the external recipients (have them send you the headers) and see where those messages were sitting. Also look at the tracking logs. Also look at the SMTP logs. Are your POP3 clients configured to use your Exchange server as an SMTP server? When a POP3 client sends mail, it does straight to an SMTP queue. If the message is for an external recipient, the message does not loop around anywhere else in the Exchange server. Just SMTP queue and then - out the door.

You can use Telnet on port 25, connect to your Exchange server and send a message. Or you could use Blat - a great command line utility for sending mail.

RE: Email frm Exch at command ln/script???
The only way to do this without any external scripts or programs is to share out the pickup directory on your Exchange server, create a specially formatted file (with RFC822 To:, From:, Subject:, etc headers) and drop it in the shared directory. This wont get you MIME attachments, though. If you want to attach files to the email, you will have to use a program to encode them in either base64 or uuencode. That's going to require one something else to worry about right there. You may as well use blat. It works great. The other path would be CDO/MAPI or Outlook via VBScript. Persits software has a free COM object that can send MAPI mail with attachments. Likewise, Outlook can be driven via VBScript. -Original Message- From: Mellott, Bill [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, October 17, 2003 12:12 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: Email frm Exch at command ln/script??? yeah the sendmail does appear to do things like sendmail in unix..

.STF files keep building
Hello, W2K SP3 with Exchange 5.5 SP4 I have a lot of .stf files being created in the C:\exchsrvr\mdbdata dir. Anyone know what is causing this? The only change is that as of this am, I now have SAV SMTP for Gateways in front of our box accepting and delivering email for the @moneymart.ca domain. The IMS on my exchange box also forwards all mail to it instead of 'using DNS'. Can these files be deleted? I found KB 217155 but my versions of files they list are newer so I'm not sure where to look. Thanks in advance. Cheers, Tony _ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Web Interface: http://intm-dl.sparklist.com/cgi-bin/lyris.pl?enter=exchangetext_mode=lang=english To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
RE: MS03-046 Exchange Critical Update
There have been some probs noted, mostly with OWA, on both Sue Mosher's Outlook list and the Sunbelt Exchange list. Some of this seems to revolve around users with Outlook 2003. You might check those lists first. I've applied it here, no problems, but I don't have any instances of Outlook 2003 yet.

RE: Outlook 2003.
No only problem I have found is no Blackberry desktop support. Ryan -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, October 16, 2003 10:51 AM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: Outlook 2003. We are currently running Exchange 5.5 and are looking at moving to Exchange 2003 and skipping Exchange 2000. We are currently running Outlook 2002 on our client systems. My question is... Are there any reasons not to begin moving our client desktops to Outlook 2003? Does anyone know of any compatibility issues running it against Exchange 5.5 or having clients with mixed versions aside from the fact that features that are introduced in Outlook 2003 will not be available to those clients that still have Outlook 2002? I have installed it on my desk and really like it once I have figured out where everything went to. I would like to start putting it on others so that we can have a more gradual rollout.
