Re: Deckler wrote a book?!?

hmmm.and lawyers and doctors dont have bais with regards to vendors ?
sounds like all those millions of dollars the drug companies spend on
junkets for doctors seem to be going to waste.

Maybe they should spend it on us easily bought (according to Deckler) IT
people.

Everyone (no matter what profession) establishes contacts with vendors
within their chosen field.  Its what allows then to provide value for money,
and access to knowledge and resources they otherwise wouldnt have. Sure
there are situations where this is open to abuse, however in most industries
there are mechanisms in place to minimise it.

Anyway, its 5am, better stop now before I rant too much.

Re: Paging File Question....

bob,

Windows has a 4gb limit for a single pagefile.  The MS article below states
how to overcome it. Its really a hack, and take serious note of the warning
at the bottom of the article

are the following:

Dual XEON 1.60Ghz Processors

IS Drive RAID 5 (140 gigs)

i have my paging file on the raid 5 drive with the database.  is this good
or bad?  im getting mixed reviews from local people here...  another thing i
cant figure out is windows is recommending the paging file to be 5374 but it
wont allow me to change it to that high.  it tells me i have to have it
smaller than 4095..  any ideas why this is doing this?  any input or
recommendations on location of the paging file is appreciated because in
outlook i get pauses and chokes every few minutes when i am opening messages
or scrolling through my mail.

thanks for any input and help.

 Glenn,

 I have seen this exact issue as well and the SIS hotfix does resolve it
 (after applying it and then running ISINTEG on each DB).  When you run
 ISINTEG without the fix it will temporarily resolve the discrepancy
 between the real mailbox size and what is reported (thus the sudden
 mailbox size increases), but it will come back until the SIS hf is
 applied.


  Jason,
 
  I did find the article in the end, IIRC you transposed some of the
numbers
  in the article ID.
 
  IIRC the article is more in reference to a bug in the SIS component,
where a
  message received by multiple users on the same store is modified by one
or
  more users and the size / references are not updated correctly (or
something
  like that).  It certainly could be one of the problems we are having,
  however the level of corruption (in the order of several hundred
thousand
  messages in one store alone) points to something more fundamental.

Re: Strange behaviour after running ISINTEG

BAS ?

Anyhoo...

Disabling the AV software is certainly something that we have considered,
however with the current raft of virii going around, its fairly low on the
list, and other servers running exactly the same software and hardware
config aren't affected. I would need some pretty serious convincing to
disable the AV system on the server for an extended period.  MS didnt
mention / find anything that pointed at possible AV issues, and disabling it
wasnt even mentioned as an option by MS.

Yes, we have considered Sp3 for Exchange, however with the feature in SP3
of changes to the public folder rights (yes, I know it was fixed in a
hotfix), we had put it on hold until the rollup came out this month before
we applied it. I also inherited the Exchange servers around March this year
in their current state, so have been reluctant to do major patchwork on them
as the underlying build is not documented.

And no, we aren't vulnerable to blaster/welchia etc, as we have the hotfix
applied (and applied it several weeks ago), as the patch can be applied to
SP2, 3 or 4 based 2k systems. We did get a spot of welchia on the network,
but the exchange servers were unaffected.

The main issue we have to deal with atm is that upping the storage limits
for the organisation to cope with the massive increase in undeleted email
has overcommitted our disk space allocations in Exchange by a factor of 8-10
times. We are currently working on a clean method of reducing the store
limits without impacting the user population, and still allow us to reduce
this overcommitment.  We have a KVS project in the works to resolve this
issue in the longer term.

We had a lengthy meeting with MS today about the issue, and their
recommendations are basically:

- Don't touch the current servers that have the corruption (even though we
have cleaned them up). This includes performing any patching or upgrades.
The reasoning behind this is that running an Exchange SP on the server may
force a db upgrade and pooch the databases completely.
- Install new kit running the latest of everything (Win2k SP's and hotfixes,
E2k Sp's and hotfixes)
- Do a managed migration of mailboxes from the existing kit to the new kit,
running ISINTEG at regular intervals to see if a) the corruption is
returning, and b) if it is, to try and determine if its a hardware problem,
or Move Mailbox is bringing the corruption along with it.

We were planning on doing an Exchange consolidation anyway (6 servers to 3 +
gateways), this has simply bought forward our plans. At least the new
servers are cool...Dual 2.8ghz Xeon, 2gb RAM, 12 x 72gb drives, and Dual
GBit Ethernet *grin*lucky I'm not paying for them.

Re: Change Roles before AD migration

2003-07-11 Thread Glenn Corbett
Possibly because if you do change the name and don't perform a side-by-side
migration (where the other server is still available), outlook will break
and wont be able to resolve mailboxes without having to recreate all the
outlook profiles.

They may also have applications that rely on the name of the Exchange server
being a particular name (or at least staying constant).

The existing hardware for exchange may not be appropiate anymore (cant scale
etc), but for the reasons above want to retain the same name.

All valid reasons for keeping the name the same

sounds like you scare easily in your *old* age*grin*

Re: A bit off topic - Multiple apps on 1 server

2003-07-08 Thread Glenn Corbett
Robert,

Well, anything is possible, but this sort of configuration is certainly not
recommended.  An Exchange Server is an Exchange Server, a DC is a DC etc.
Its generally thought of as a bad idea, however there are always costs
associated with deploying larger numbers of servers for (comparatively)
smaller regional offices.

That being said, I have done similar things (although with smaller offices),
and provided you have all the backup / AV and DR strategies in place, its
not a huge issue.  Performance and scaling of the server will be paramount
to the configuration.  For a 150-300 user office it could potentially be a
bit of a squeeze to get all the apps on a single box and still provide the
required levels of service, however the following is a configuration I've
used that has worked in the past.

Dual 2.4/2.8 GHz processors
1-2gb RAM
RAID Controller, with up to 6 x36gb drives

Software installed was
Windows 2000, running AD, DNS, DHCP, WINS
Exchange 2000
Oracle
File and Print Server

This was for an office of up to about 50 staff, and the performance levels
were quite acceptable.

Obviously the recommended Exchange configuration (mirror set, mirror set,
RAID 5) wasn't possible in the hardware being used, however Exchange hasn't
seemed to be affected (there is obviously a performance hit, but its been
negligible).

There are risks associated with doing this sort of config, but as long as
you are aware of them, and have contingency plans in place, you should be
ok.  For example Exchange and SQL aren't very good bedfellows, and need
optimisation on both sides to make sure the performance is appropiate for
both applications.

Re: something is killing IIS on one of my front-ends

2003-07-02 Thread Glenn Corbett
Does sound like a DOS attack of some sort (had similar problems with some
standard IIS servers).  If the logs arent too revealing, get your comms guys
to enable incoming logging on the firewalls / firewall routers for traffic
destined for your front-end server.  Should be easy for them to do.

As for blocking the traffic they can do that fairly easily as well, provided
its all from the same / similar places (ours was).  The problem with trying
to block it at the front end server is that by then the box has already seen
the traffic and may be too late to stop it.

Also (as always) make sure you are running the correct suite of patches on
your front-end server.

stops responding and resets itself.

Earlier this morning, I was just looking at a few things and noticed that
all of a sudden IIS got 17,000+ connections at a rate of ~50 per second.

I am going to check the logs and try to find out where these connections
came from. Hopefully they are all from one place so that I could block that

And I am fishing for suggestions as to what else I could do to track this
down.

Re: Clustering... is it worth it?

2003-06-28 Thread Glenn Corbett
IIRC Active/Active was the initial recommendation under E2k, until some of
these MAPI session limits starts cropping up, and with memory fragmentation
in ESE.  We were in discussions with MS about deploying a large
Active/Active cluster during this period, and they changed their tune
part-way through the discussions and recommended Active/Passive rather than
Active/Active.

With all of the redundancy we were building in with the Exchange design
anyway (see below), clustering was only going to save us from physical
hardware failure of one of the front-end servers, but we pretty much had
that covered anyway.  As others have said, clustering doesn't protect you
from DB corruption.

Config for single mailbox server was:
Multi-Processor Server
ECC Memory
Multiple hot-plug power supplies on different physical power curcits,
running on building UPS' (optionally local UPS for each power supply as
well)
Multiple hot-plug fans for cooling
RAID'ed disk (obviously), on multiple channels, with hot spares
Multiple Physical, Multi-Port NICs using port aggregation over multiple
redundant switches.

We also had a hot-standby server incase of total-systems failure (move the
entire disk array to new server), and hot spares of every major component.

We also deployed multiple Exchange servers, so in the case of complete
failure of one server, only portions of the organisation were affected.  We
ensured that members of the same work area were located on physically
seperate machines, so if one server did fail, at least one mailbox in each
section was still able to send and receive important emails. Multiple
incoming and outgoing connector servers provded some measure of protection
against a single connector server failure (the fault-tolerance levels of
these machines were much lower to save costs).  All Public folders were
replicated to at least two different servers.

Even with clustering, a number of the measures described above were still
required, such as building some level of redundancy into the front-end
servers, but you now have the added complexity of the redundancy and fault
tolerance required for the SAN device.

My gripe with clustering is that there is a tendency to try and throw the
entire org onto a single cluster (either Active/Active or Active/Passive),
but when the cluster itself fails, the entire organisation is off the air.
Something that isn't tolerated these days with mission critical mail
systems.

Exchange has so many built-in redundany and load sharing features, that
clustering just introduces unnecessary complexity into the mix, especially
in recovery scenarios.  That being said, when I have deployed them and got
the kinks worked out, they have been pretty solid.

2k3 may be a different kettle of fish.

You have the benefit of quick recovery in event of hardware failure on the
server (not likely typically). But, it is really nice for maintenance where
you have to apply patches, security updates, virus engine updates, service
packs, etc... You can failover in a matter of seconds and you have as much
time as you need to work on the server without interrupting users or
bouncing email.

On an active/active cluster we host 16,000 users, 2500 using Outlook and the
rest using OWA 2000. We can have both virtual machines running on one
quad-Xeon 700Mhz without users noticing much of a slowdown at all. Exchange
2003 with Windows 2003 runs more efficiently so far in our tests. However,
Microsoft is now recommending ACTIVE / PASSIVE so you have a fresh server to
failover to.

You already have a key component - SAN - so I would cluster in a heartbeat.
We haven't had any issues - except for a corrupted db which we attributed to
the SAN.

2003 promisses to make clustering better, but we haven't tested that yet.

if this is an AD DC and you are the administrator of the local machine, then
you are possibly a domain admin (since the local machine doesnt actually

Domain Admins are denied access to mailboxes, and a deny overrides any other

Re: Outside company mail

2003-05-27 Thread Glenn Corbett
James,

It can be / is a real pain to do this sort of this, and as you have said,
there are more than outlook clients to worry about.  One client I know of
required users to pre-pend some text to the subject line for outgoing mail,
essentially forcing the user to acknowledge that the mail being sent was not
restricted information.  Whilst a pain, this did work.

The external messaging gateways would look for this text at the beginning of
the subject line, and if it wasn't there, would bounce the mail back.
Internal messages didn't require this subject line hack, as the messages
stayed entirely within the exchange environment.  They also allowed
different subject prefixes, which could then append different information in
the footer of the message depending on the classification the mail was
given.

It certainly doesn't stop people sending inappropriate email outside the
company, however it is a conscious act on behalf of the user to send this
mail, hence if there is a problem, they can be beaten over the head because
they sent the mail.  It stops the but it was an accident excuse.

Re: Outside company mail

2003-05-27 Thread Glenn Corbett
The problem with a server side solution, is that the mail has already been
sent by the user at this point, so there's no yes button for them to
click.  The message wouldn't be assessed for delivery to an external
recipient until the MTA got the message and expanded the recipient list.

For a purely outlook solution, you could rig up a new compose form which had
some additional fields / checkbox making the user acknowldge the mail is
going outside the organisation, but would require some server-side code to
analyse that field prior to transmission.

Re: NETIQ vs. MOM

2003-04-02 Thread Glenn Corbett
Jonathan,

I have deployed both products, and personally like NetIQ a heck of a lot
better.

Essentially both products can perform the same levels of monitoring and
reporting, however MOM requires a LOT more legwork to get the same result.
The NetIQ interface as you said is more logical and easier to navigate, and
it seems a lot more thought has been given to providing a clean interface
for administrators.

Setting up alerts etc for MOM for say a single server is MUCH more tedious
than for NetIQ.  MOM's grouping of monitoring into a hierarchal structure
based on attributes creates more confusion IMHO.  We have required some
scripting to create custom attributes on servers just to enable some groups
to be created (by pulling back these custom attributes), not necessary on
NetIQ as it allow arbitrary grouping of servers (MOM does allow this as
well, but its not as intuitive).  With NetIQ a simple drag/drop of a task or
monitoring job onto the device in question is much easier and allows more
targeted monitoring to occur.  Currently with MOM if I really want to
perform specific monitoring of a server, I jump into perfmon and set up
custom monitoring, rather than try and make MOM do it.

Arbitrary grouping / monitoring of different core servers in a different way
is where MOM really falls down IMHO.  With NetIQ, I can simply change the
monitored jobs on each specific server, changing thresholds for each one,
and even disabling some jobs if I feel like.  Attempting to do this with MOM
is an exercise in frustration, since most settings are based on the
monitoring groups which are attached to a group of servers based on a
specific attribute (registry setting, name etc), not the server itself.  For
example, we have 6 exchange servers.  If I want to monitor the gateway
server differently, or set different thresholds (eg I'm not concerned if the
outgoing SMTP queue length on the gateway gets about 50, but on a mailbox
server I am), this is MUCH more difficult on MOM than it should be.
Currently, I set the threshold lower for all exchange servers, and simply
ignore the ones from the gateway where they are under *my* determined
threshold.  Not pretty, and makes it more difficult for me to set up paging
/ sms interfaces for our after-hours support team, as they get a lot of
unnecessary alerts.

The scripting interface for both products is pretty-much on par.

I am quite disappointed with the requirement to add-on packs for MOM to
effectively monitor NT v4.0 servers, as this should be a core feature of the
system (yes, I do realise MS want me to upgrade to 2k, 2003, but it isn't
going to happen soon).   Add-on packs for both products are neither here nor
there, as you require packs for application-specific monitoring of most
applications (like Exchange, SQL), however NetIQ currently has wider choice
for non-Microsoft applications (IBM, Oracle etc), and wider OS support.

The NetIQ reporting / graphing is miles ahead of MOM, however with MOM you
always can use Excel to provide customised reporting and graphing.

In MOM's defence it is essentially a v1 product (even though it is based on
other well-known product *grin*), so I am expecting big things from MOM
2004. MOM SP1 is addressing a number of my gripes above, so after I apply it
I'll see how much things have improved.

 AD.

 At the same time, we are also evaluating MOM to monitor the same stuff,
 however, if we want it to monitor these third party items(, Blackberry,
 and IBM Director), we will have to purchase the plug-ins from NETIQ.

 So far, I really like NETIQ.  It is easy to use, seems very accurate and
 is logically organized with more features and monitors right out of the
 box that I like.

 My impression of MOM is not so good.  It seems that a lot of customization
 is required to make it work properly.  I think that it would monitor
 things effectively, however, I think the implementation time, due to the
 increased level of customization involved, would be much greater, and
 ultimately make me less happy.

 I would appreciate anyone's thoughts/experiences with either or both of
 these products since there is quite a debate going on within my company.

 Look at the message headers to be sure that it isn't from the Internet.
 If it is from the Internet, search TechNet for ResolveP2 (without the
 quotes) and you can make sure that mail from the Internet doesn't look
 like mail from within.  If you determine that the message was generated
 internally, then you should strap every administrator who could grant
 themselves permissions to send as the manager into a lie detector and
 terminate the one who fails.  If they all pass, then you should tighten
 up your security by eliminating unnecessary administrative accounts and
 changing passwords on the remaining ones.

 Subject: Mailbox Hacked
 Importance: High


 One of our sales managers received an email message from his boss about
 a job opportunity in another company and the boss claiming that his
 mailbox is hacked and he never sent that message which I believe that
 because why would any manager do that. Now, the very first thing came to
 mind that someone got into his mailbox and sent that message but what's
 strange is that I got into his mailbox and browsed through his sent
 items and I do not see that message in his sent items. I can't think of
 anything else. Please help me understand that how can it be possible?
 Thanks!

Re: Migration Scenario

2003-02-18 Thread Glenn Corbett
The problem with replying to old emails from users in the existing exchange
organisation, is that exchange doesn't store the email address of the user
who sent the message. Rather, it stores the DN (distinguished name) of the
user who sent the message, i.e. /o=some
org/ou=something/cn=recipients/cn=theuser , rather than
SMTP:[EMAIL PROTECTED] This is basically what allows you to see the full
details of a user when you double click on their name in outlook (it uses
the DN to query the directory to get the information).

Therefore, the new Exchange server won't know who the old person was to
reply to email, because the DN of the new user account is different to the
old one.  If you use the available migration tools to migrate accounts, the
LegacyExchangeDN attribute can be populated on the Windows 2000 accounts,
and Exchange 2000 will use this for replying to old emails, making everyone
happy

Migrating content via PST's is ok, but use the migration tools to push
accounts into Win2k AD so that the legacy attribute gets populated (or
script it), otherwise it could get very ugly very quickly.

To see this in action, open a PST file with messages in it from inside the
organisation on an outlook client that has no knowledge of your environment
(disconnected outlook client,  no offline address book etc). Open the
message, and double click on the sender.  The display name will be populated
with the DN, and all other fields will be blank.

This will also affect calender items etc as discussed below.

I'm sure someone will correct me if this is wrong :)

 If we export everyone's mail to a PST and re-import onto the new server

 this still cause issues with replying to old emails? I know I will lose

 but I am only moving 150 users total. As far as PF's, they are the main
 reason I am looking to go this route. I have almost 3000 PF's from the old

 orphaned (the old Mail Admin didn't have a clue) from Ex 5.5 servers that
 where decommissioned servers from offices being shut down.

 It is easier, in my opinion, to go the route I am planning then to try and
 clean up the old junk (which there is an insurmountable amount of). I am
 just looking for any issues with this scenario that I may be overlooking.

 The SMTP addresses of each user will remain the same as our domain is

 there's a non-trivial level of work involved if one wants to make it

Re: Anyone tried a tablet?

2003-01-15 Thread Glenn Corbett
Yep, used the Compaq/HP one quite a bit, thoughts so far:

- Nice product, although the notebook part (the keyboard) feels a little
flimsy, seems to work ok though
- The Transmeta processor is a nice idea, but from experience the machine
seems very sluggish at first, but once things are up and running, the speed
improves (once the processor has been able to do its optimisation thing
presumably, and XP can cache)
- The standard memory definitely isn't enough, the machine was hitting the
drive way to much (this is probably more attributable to XP), added the
additional 256MB of ram, now runs much faster and smoother.
- Docking station is a must, you actually cant complete an initial
installation (install office XP etc) without either a network connection
(wired or wireless) or a USB CD-ROM drive (which actually worked quite
well), if you don't have a docking station
- Screen is nice, and viewable angles are quite good
- Handwriting recognition works well, but does work the CPU quite hard
- The tablet pen left click can be awkward for a left handed person like
me (but maybe that's just me), this also includes the default screen layout,
where all the icons and menus are on the left hand side of the screen.
- Fingerprints etc on the screen are a pain, but this will probably be
standard fare for these sorts of devices
- The Transmeta power management works well, device has been running all day
on one charge (depending on what you are doing obviously)
- Device does get quite warm, but with the keyboard folded underneath a lot
of the heat isn't as noticeable when you are holding it

 Subject: RE: Recovering an Event Script from a Mailbox

 It's been quite a while when I was playing with this stuff and I
 remember that it is not trivial.

 Let's see what I can remember... The Exchange 5.5 Scripting agent script
 itself is stored as a hidden item in the folder it is applied to (in
 your case: the particular mailbox on Server A). Another second config
 item, also hidden, is created on the server the script is supposed to be
 executed (in your case Server B) in the system folder Event_Config (or
 similar - can't remember the correct name unfortunately).

 So, if you just want to get the script code back then try to restore the
 whole mailbox store on a recovery server [1] and use either a debugging
 tool [2] or try to connect with Outlook and see if you can get it via
 the Agents tab.

 [1] Note that if you use BLB [3] you might not be able to restore
 Scripting Agents. Only if you use an Exchange backup aware product to do
 a full IS backup/restore you have a chance. [2] Either MicroEye
 ScriptDorector
 (http://www.microeye.com/scriptdirector) or the Microsoft Agent Editor
 (used to be in the Exchange 5.5 SDK or BackOffice Resource Kit 4.5) or
 plain mdbvu32.exe (comes with Exchange on the setup CD). But the latter
 needs to be used CAREFULLY. [3] BLB = Brick Level Backup like it is
 offered with ArcServe, Veritas and other backup software.

Jeff,

umm, pretty much any event with a class of Error (as opposed to
information or warning errors).  Exchange is pretty good like that. It
depends on what you are trying to look out for / prevent. Exchange can
literally fill the event logs every few minutes if you want it to (just ramp
up logging on everything to full), it depends on what you are trying to look
out for.

But, watching for critial / error events is a good start.

Most halfway decent event log tools can filter by Error / Critical events.

Re: Using ADUC: How to list all users in a specific database?

2002-05-29 Thread Glenn Corbett

David,

you can move a users mailbox with script, look up CDOEXM

here's a unchecked code snippet:

Sub ADSIMoveMailbox(recipname As String, DestinationServer As String,
MailBoxStore As String, StorageGroup As String)



Dim objUser As IADsUser

Dim objMailbox As CDOEXM.IMailboxStore

Dim strMove As String

Dim exchPath



On Error GoTo errorhandler

Set objUser = GetObject(recipname)

Set objMailbox = objUser



If objMailbox.HomeMDB   Then

exchPath = DestinationServer

If exchPath   Then

   strMove = cn= + MailBoxStore + ,cn= + StorageGroup +
,cn=InformationStore, + exchPath

MsgBox Now Moving:  objUser.Name

   objMailbox.MoveMailbox strMove -- This does all the work

   objUser.SetInfo

   MsgBox Move Mailbox operation has been completed for user  +
recipname

Else

   MsgBox FAIL :Server  + DestinationServer +  not found

End If

Else

 MsgBox FAIL: no mailbox to move for  + recipname

End If



On Error Goto 0

GoTo EndofItAll



errorhandler:

If Err  0 Then

   MsgBox FAIL: Move Mailbox Error while moving user  + recipname + .
Error Code is  + Str(Err)

   Exit Sub

End If

EndofItAll:

End Sub

 using ADSI to perform LDAP lookups but they all have one little problem -
 they don't have the move mailbox option.  I am attempting to move the

 Subject: Using ADUC: How to list all users in a specific database?


 I am attempting to generate a search result in Active Directory Users
 and Computers that only lists users in a specific database - I need to
 move all those specific users to new databases and I really don't want
 to write down all the names and move them manually.  So, here is what
 I've done already:

 - No, can't simply navigate down to the servers' database object and
 list of users then right click and move - no such option on the context
 menu.

 - Tried every combination of Exchange Mailbox Store in the search
 feature of ADUC - wouldn't you think it would be
 CN=databasename,CN=storagegroupname with the starts with search
 option?

 Help!  Any ADUC guru's out there?

 Subject: Using ADUC: How to list all users in a specific database?


 I am attempting to generate a search result in Active Directory Users
 and Computers that only lists users in a specific database - I need to
 move all those specific users to new databases and I really don't want
 to write down all the names and move them manually.  So, here is what
 I've done already:

 - No, can't simply navigate down to the servers' database object and
 list of users then right click and move - no such option on the context
 menu.

 - Tried every combination of Exchange Mailbox Store in the search
 feature of ADUC - wouldn't you think it would be
 CN=databasename,CN=storagegroupname with the starts with search
 option?

 Help!  Any ADUC guru's out there?

 David

Re: Moving Public Folders from E5.5

2002-05-28 Thread Glenn Corbett

Use the Microsoft Exchange PF synchronisation tool (cant remember the exact
name atm), it synchs PF content across disconnected orgs, and DOESNT copy
across perms. Am currently using it for a clients 5.5 - 2k migration, works
a treat.

I know the tool is for synchronisation / co-existence, but it can be used

you can move a users mailbox with script, look up CDOEXM

here's a unchecked code snippet:

MailBoxStore As String, StorageGroup As String)



Dim objUser As IADsUser

On Error GoTo errorhandler

Set objUser = GetObject(recipname)

Set objMailbox = objUser



If objMailbox.HomeMDB   Then

exchPath = DestinationServer

If exchPath   Then

   strMove = cn= + MailBoxStore + ,cn= + StorageGroup +
,cn=InformationStore, + exchPath

MsgBox Now Moving:  objUser.Name

   objMailbox.MoveMailbox strMove -- This does all the work

   objUser.SetInfo

   MsgBox Move Mailbox operation has been completed for user  +

Else

   MsgBox FAIL :Server  + DestinationServer +  not found

   Hi All,
  
   What is the best way to move all PF from Exchange
  5.5 SP3 server (NT4
   SP6a)
   to Exchange 2000 (SBS2K SP2) using a different
  domain and organization? I
   don't care about retaining permissions.  The two
  server machines are on
  the

Re: Moving Public Folders from E5.5

Quite possibly Ed, I was going to check this morning when I got in.

I know the tool is for synchronisation / co-existence, but it can be used
for a one-off copy of pf content.

Re: Using ADUC: How to list all users in a specific database?

David,

you can move a users mailbox with script, look up CDOEXM

here's a unchecked code snippet:

Sub ADSIMoveMailbox(recipname As String, DestinationServer As String,
MailBoxStore As String, StorageGroup As String)



Dim objUser As IADsUser

Set objUser = GetObject(recipname)

If objMailbox.HomeMDB   Then

exchPath = DestinationServer

If exchPath   Then

   strMove = cn= + MailBoxStore + ,cn= + StorageGroup +
,cn=InformationStore, + exchPath

MsgBox Now Moving:  objUser.Name

   objMailbox.MoveMailbox strMove -- This does all the work

   objUser.SetInfo

   MsgBox Move Mailbox operation has been completed for user  +
recipname

Else

   MsgBox FAIL :Server  + DestinationServer +  not found

End If

Else

 MsgBox FAIL: no mailbox to move for  + recipname

 I am attempting to generate a search result in Active Directory Users

 move all those specific users to new databases and I really don't want
 to write down all the names and move them manually.  So, here is what
 I've done already:

 - No, can't simply navigate down to the servers' database object and
 list of users then right click and move - no such option on the context
 menu.

 - Tried every combination of Exchange Mailbox Store in the search
 feature of ADUC - wouldn't you think it would be
 CN=databasename,CN=storagegroupname with the starts with search
 option?

 Help!  Any ADUC guru's out there?

David,

you can move a users mailbox with script, look up CDOEXM

here's a unchecked code snippet:

Sub ADSIMoveMailbox(recipname As String, DestinationServer As String,
MailBoxStore As String, StorageGroup As String)



Dim objUser As IADsUser

Dim objMailbox As CDOEXM.IMailboxStore

Dim strMove As String

Dim exchPath



On Error GoTo errorhandler

Set objUser = GetObject(recipname)

Set objMailbox = objUser



If objMailbox.HomeMDB   Then

exchPath = DestinationServer

If exchPath   Then

   strMove = cn= + MailBoxStore + ,cn= + StorageGroup +
,cn=InformationStore, + exchPath

MsgBox Now Moving:  objUser.Name

   objMailbox.MoveMailbox strMove -- This does all the work

   objUser.SetInfo

   MsgBox Move Mailbox operation has been completed for user  +
recipname

Else

   MsgBox FAIL :Server  + DestinationServer +  not found

End If

Else

 MsgBox FAIL: no mailbox to move for  + recipname

End If

   Hi All,
  
   What is the best way to move all PF from Exchange
  5.5 SP3 server (NT4
   SP6a)
   to Exchange 2000 (SBS2K SP2) using a different

   don't care about retaining permissions.  The two

David,

you can move a users mailbox with script, look up CDOEXM

here's a unchecked code snippet:

MailBoxStore As String, StorageGroup As String)



Dim objUser As IADsUser

If objMailbox.HomeMDB   Then

exchPath = DestinationServer

If exchPath   Then

   strMove = cn= + MailBoxStore + ,cn= + StorageGroup +
,cn=InformationStore, + exchPath

MsgBox Now Moving:  objUser.Name

   objMailbox.MoveMailbox strMove -- This does all the work

   objUser.SetInfo

   MsgBox Move Mailbox operation has been completed for user  +

Else

   MsgBox FAIL :Server  + DestinationServer +  not found

End If

Else

 I am attempting to generate a search result in Active Directory Users

 - Tried every combination of Exchange Mailbox Store in the search

here's a unchecked code snippet:

MsgBox Now Moving:  objUser.Name

   objMailbox.MoveMailbox strMove -- This does all the work

you can move a users mailbox with script, look up CDOEXM

here's a unchecked code snippet:

 Subject: Using ADUC: How to list all users in a specific database?


 I am attempting to generate a search result in Active Directory Users
 and Computers that only lists users in a specific database - I need to
 move all those specific users to new databases and I really don't want
 to write down all the names and move them manually.  So, here is what
 I've done already:

 - No, can't simply navigate down to the servers' database object and
 list of users then right click and move - no such option on the context
 menu.

 - Tried every combination of Exchange Mailbox Store in the search
 feature of ADUC - wouldn't you think it would be
 CN=databasename,CN=storagegroupname with the starts with search
 option?

 Help!  Any ADUC guru's out there?

 Subject: Using ADUC: How to list all users in a specific database?


 I am attempting to generate a search result in Active Directory Users
 and Computers that only lists users in a specific database - I need to
 move all those specific users to new databases and I really don't want
 to write down all the names and move them manually.  So, here is what
 I've done already:

 - No, can't simply navigate down to the servers' database object and
 list of users then right click and move - no such option on the context
 menu.

 - Tried every combination of Exchange Mailbox Store in the search
 feature of ADUC - wouldn't you think it would be
 CN=databasename,CN=storagegroupname with the starts with search
 option?

 Help!  Any ADUC guru's out there?

Re: Moving Public Folders from E5.5

I know the tool is for synchronisation / co-existence, but it can be used
for a one-off copy of pf content.

David,

you can move a users mailbox with script, look up CDOEXM

here's a unchecked code snippet:

MailBoxStore As String, StorageGroup As String)



Dim objUser As IADsUser

Dim objMailbox As CDOEXM.IMailboxStore

Dim strMove As String

On Error GoTo errorhandler

Set objUser = GetObject(recipname)

Set objMailbox = objUser



If objMailbox.HomeMDB   Then

exchPath = DestinationServer

If exchPath   Then

   strMove = cn= + MailBoxStore + ,cn= + StorageGroup +
,cn=InformationStore, + exchPath

MsgBox Now Moving:  objUser.Name

   objMailbox.MoveMailbox strMove -- This does all the work

   objUser.SetInfo

   MsgBox Move Mailbox operation has been completed for user  +
recipname

Else

   MsgBox FAIL :Server  + DestinationServer +  not found

End If

Else

 MsgBox FAIL: no mailbox to move for  + recipname

Re: Using ADUC: How to list all users in a specific database?

2002-05-28 Thread Glenn Corbett

David,

you can move a users mailbox with script, look up CDOEXM

here's a unchecked code snippet:

Sub ADSIMoveMailbox(recipname As String, DestinationServer As String,
MailBoxStore As String, StorageGroup As String)



Dim objUser As IADsUser

Dim objMailbox As CDOEXM.IMailboxStore

Dim strMove As String

Dim exchPath



On Error GoTo errorhandler

Set objUser = GetObject(recipname)

Set objMailbox = objUser



If objMailbox.HomeMDB   Then

exchPath = DestinationServer

If exchPath   Then

   strMove = cn= + MailBoxStore + ,cn= + StorageGroup +
,cn=InformationStore, + exchPath

MsgBox Now Moving:  objUser.Name

   objMailbox.MoveMailbox strMove -- This does all the work

   objUser.SetInfo

   MsgBox Move Mailbox operation has been completed for user  +
recipname

Else

   MsgBox FAIL :Server  + DestinationServer +  not found

End If

Else

 MsgBox FAIL: no mailbox to move for  + recipname

End If



On Error Goto 0

GoTo EndofItAll



errorhandler:

If Err  0 Then

   MsgBox FAIL: Move Mailbox Error while moving user  + recipname + .
Error Code is  + Str(Err)

   Exit Sub

End If

EndofItAll:

End Sub

 they don't have the move mailbox option.  I am attempting to move the

 I am attempting to generate a search result in Active Directory Users

 move all those specific users to new databases and I really don't want
 to write down all the names and move them manually.  So, here is what
 I've done already:

 - No, can't simply navigate down to the servers' database object and
 list of users then right click and move - no such option on the context

 - Tried every combination of Exchange Mailbox Store in the search

 CN=databasename,CN=storagegroupname with the starts with search
 option?

 Help!  Any ADUC guru's out there?

Re: TO ALL WHO HAVE IMPLEMENTED E2K

2002-05-21 Thread Glenn Corbett

Well, speaking from personal experience, Exchange 2000 is a fairly serious
undertaking, and unless you are looking for the advanced features of
exchange (group calendering, scheduling, collaborative applications etc),
the licensing is probably going to be the main killer unless the university
has some sort of volume / select licensing with Microsoft.

The OWA front end to E2k is pretty sexy, and is almost a full replacement
for the fat Outlook client.  However, from what I know of other university
environments, you would be looking to really supply the students with the
ability to have an email address, send and receive mail, and ummm that's
probably it really.  You wouldn't be using a lot of the features that make
it worthwhile to use E2k, and there are the AD requirements.

There are certainly a number of free-ish / low cost POP3 / IMAP mail servers
for Windows NT / 2000 that would probably provide the features you are after
without going to *boo hiss* Linux :P

If you are using the extra features of exchange and do require E2k, then the
switch should be relatively easy (make sure that you have a VERY stable AD
system inplace beforehand). However if you are just using exchange as a POP3
/ IMAP server, then there are alternatives on the Windows platform without
jumping to Linux (or even worse, Group(un)wise on Novell)

Some issues encountered with moving to E2k (from a 5.5 environment) - in
no particular order
Exchange 2k CANNOT run without a stable AD infrastructure - get that
right first
If you are using OWA on 5.5 heavily, E2k OWA is VERY different (could
present a training issue)
Migration from 5.5 to E2k CAN be painful (depending on your existing
config). Many tools around to assist you, however can be costly if the
out-of-the-box tools (Exchange migration wizard) doesn't do exactly what you
want
You are not just migrating 5.5 to E2k, you are also migrating Windows NT
v4.0 to Windows 2000 (much bigger undertaking)
Windows NT v4.0 DNS is quite lightweight, Windows 2000 DNS is a much
different beast. Integrating with BIND DNS etc can be a challenge.
Avoid E2k Clusters if you can, there are a number of scalability issues
around Active / Active clusters

That's about all I can think of atm.

HTH.

Re: Diskeeper and Exchange the final word ?

2002-04-22 Thread Glenn Corbett

Daniel,

Correct as always, however.

You can shut down the exchange services (which obviously affects Exchange
availability) and perform a Diskeeper defrag on the volumes if the exchange
databases are shared with other files. This will organise the files in a
contiguous manner, including the Exchange databases, but will not touch the
internal content of the files. The problem that can arise with this is that
as the exchange databases start to grow, they will immediately become
externally fragmented, i.e. multiple file segments, as opposed to
internally fragmented - what the exchange defrag process fixes.

Glenn

BTW, rightly or wrongly, not everyone has the luxury of storing the Exchange
DB's on their own spindles.

 Let's get this straight once and for all...

 Diskeeper does a file-level defrag of the hard-drive. It does not touch
what
 is inside the files, just gathers the fragments together.

 Exchange databases do get fragmented, but _internally_ to their structure.
 Diskeeper will not touch that fragmentation.

 The Exchange database files are open; Diskeeper will try very hard to move
 them anyway, chewing up clock cycles and dragging down performance.

 And since your EDB files are on their own spindle with nothing else there
 (that IS how you're configured, right?) the file itself will always be
 contiguous; nothing to defrag.

Re: Email review

2002-04-16 Thread Glenn Corbett

KVS Enterprise Vault is a great product, has lots of nice features around
terminating PST's and bringing them back into the fold, amongst other
things.

Does however keep the messages live, i.e. on Disk storage, and can become
VERY large if you want to keep lots of mail for a long time.

Has a nice web interface, so you don't need outlook to search and read
archived messages (don't even need the Exchange server up for archived
messages). Also renders some content types (where a filter exists), so you
can maintain some semblance of forward compatibility. For example if you
upgrade to a version of Word that cant read old files, Enterprise vault
stores a rendered version of the attachment that is viewable entirely within
the browser (no ActiveX support required). This is a great feature if you
want to retain stuff for a long time.

Security on individual Vaults can be modified via the Admin interface, so
your auditors can conduct audits of the email system without having each
individual user go through their own email.

Lots more other things.

Haven't had direct experience with the other products.

shoulders ? Tell him to get back to work :)

I'm not sure if its possbile, since the client seems to be involved in at
least part of the BCC process (hiding the recipients etc). You may want to
check out the Office Resource Kit (ORK).

Re: Boundary for Public folder replication

2002-04-10 Thread Glenn Corbett

Leo,

The Public Folder Hierarchy is replicated to all Exchange servers in the
forest. Replication of Public folder content is specified on a per-public
folder basis via the Exchange system manager. There is no issue with
replication of public folders on a routing group basis, they are replicated
on a per server / storage group basis, not a routing group.

The public folder affinity you spoke of is really related to clients
browsing content of the PF hierarchy where they do not have locally
replicated content.

Subject: Boundary for Public folder replication


 I am confused and would really appreciate someone's help.

 I have that that public folders are NOT replicated within a routing group
 !!?? I find this hard to believe as replication within an Exchange 5.5
 site was always available.

 I have searched Technet and many other resources  they don't make a
 statement in either direction.

 I can only find one reference to public folder replication WITHIN a
 routing group (MS Exchange administrators companion). But this is under
 the section entitled Public folder affinity.

 The fact that I have only found 1 piece of text on the replication of
 public folders within a routing group alarms me as I would have expected
 to have found many more. Is the MS Exchange administrators companion
 correct?

 Could someone confirm that you are able to replicate public folders within
 a routing group and point me to a reference if they have one please.

 Regards
 Leo

Re: Policy Q's.

2002-04-10 Thread Glenn Corbett

Paul,

Normally its how loud they whinge, how important the data is, and how high
up the management food chain they can go (and not in that order)

The first response should probably be No, you cant have it back, then work
from there. Don't ask why they want it back, they will always have some lame
excuse. Users will try to get IT to do it, even if they don't REALLY need
the data back.

In some organisations I've dealt with, there is a financial penalty for
getting data back (when the problem was user induced), since the IT guys
typically would do it after hours (too busy during the day to build EX
servers). That normally puts things into perspective, and if the data IS
critical, they will pony up the money to have it done. Their management will
need to supply the money, and would be in a better position to a) deal with
the whinging user (always a good thing), b) decide how important the data
is, c) usually make sure it doesn't happen again.

Obviously with server failures or entire DB corruption, that sort of thing
gets fixed, no questions asked.

Re: Prevent the forwarding of an email message.

2002-04-10 Thread Glenn Corbett

Kevin, what do you mean by:

prevent someone from forwarding the email message or any content of the
message

like what ? the words ??

sounds like that would be almost impossible to do (without disabling the
MTA's).

Cutting and pasting content from an existing message cannot be distinguished
by Exchange from a message that was typed from scratch (even if the words
are 100% identical)

Some clarification might help, what exactly are you trying to stop ?

There are products around (Like Authentica) which do try and impose some
control on HOW recipients of an email interact with it, for example refusing
printing of emails, expiring the email after a specific time. Quite cool
technology actually, but as one of the other posters said, it still wouldn't
stop a screen capture (although the resulting format is not entirely useful)

Re: A Clean Slate for E2K! Q's...

2002-04-07 Thread Glenn Corbett

Paul,

getting a template for those policies is quite difficult since each
organisation is quite different, and things like mail retention policies are
often dictated by Governmental regulations / internal politics etc.

Public folder policy for example can be influenced by things such as:
Server Storage Space (may affect public folder numbers + max content size +
data retention + replicas)
Site Connectivity (may affect replicas, replication, data retention)
Existing DMS (Document Management Systems) and integration with
Expected Content (shared calenders, corporate policy documents etc)
Heirarchy based on job function ? functional area ? geographic area ?
Placement of replicas and replication intervals (influenced by content
storage)
Use of internally developed forms + applications
Delegation of Public Folder management to line areas / divisions
Existing Archiving Policy
Government requirements relating to data retention
Data recovery issues (influences several things, including replication +
data retention)


and thats just some of the issues.

If there is an existing Exchange Design developed or in production, a number
of these policy issues will be dictated by the design. Since you are
migrating from a notes environment, examine the pre-existing polices in that
environment (if they exist). The actual mechanics of the policy would only
change slightly in an Exchange implementation, and if they were written
properly in the first place, should need very little modification.

Hello All,
During my stay at my previous employer administrating a global
Exch5.5 Org around the world I learned a lot about what I didn't like as
far as policy/procedure/implementation of an Exchange Implementation and
this list was a great help overcoming some of the issues of integrating
acquired companies systems into our own...

Now I have changed jobs and have a clean slate with a new E2K
implementation with users being migrated from disparate Lotus
Notes/CCMail/Exch5.5 environment to a single environment.

I have the duty to write and help implement policies on various
topics including PublicFolder usage  heirarchy, PST and mail retention
policies, smtp naming standards and such. I've been checking the FAQ and
archives of this list but would appreciate URLs of any other resources I
can tap to help me write these policies. I hate to reinvent the wheel
since I'm sure most of this stuff is out there somewhere.

Are there also any good books on this topic?

Re: The day after superbowl

2002-02-05 Thread Glenn Corbett

Ray,

Well possibly that could be a good / bad thing (not knowing who Ray Lewis or
Levon Kirkland are), but they would hit you a few times, then have to go and
have a lie down. A Rugby Union player can keep it up all day, and with FAR
less padding ;)

I agree that some specialisation is a good idea, but come on. To quote your
other post Best of the best.  Kind of like hiring an Exchange admin as
opposed to just a network admin. Well granted, but using your analogy, you
would need 10 exchange admins, one to fire up the console, another to create
a recipient, another to create a public folder, yet another to stop and
start the store, and need I go on ? Since I dont follow the sport at all
that may be an unfair comparison, but it seems to me that level of
specialisation is just plain wrong. Having one guy who's sole job it is to
kick the little ball through the posts seems rather pointless.

 Yeah well MINIMUM wage in the NFL is about $220,000/yr.  And perhaps those
 tough guys ought to put the pads on and take a hit from Ray Lewis or Levon
 Kirkland.

 In the early days of the NFL, many players did play offense and defense.
But
 as the game became more popular, it also became more sophisticated, and as
 such lead to specialization.  The idea is it's the best of the best doing
 what they do best - run, catch, block, hit, throw.

 I think the reason more Aussies dont try is that American football is
right
 down near the bottom of the list of career choices. Soccer (Real
Football),
 Aussie Rules, Rugby Union, Basketball, Rugby League, Baseball, and even
 Cricket (possibly even Curling) are above American Football.

 Aussie rules is a bit of a wierd game, sort of a cross between soccer
 (strategy) and rugby (voilence). Its those damn tight shorts I think. I
dont
 want to spend my weekend looking at lots of men running around in tight
 shorts *shudder*.

 Basically the yanks are seen as wimpy for putting on all that padding
before
 playing a game of footy. Rugby League (whilst I cant be called a fan),
has
 about 1/4 the padding of AF, but the tackles are as equally violent.

 Also those breaks seem to interrupt the flow of the game IMHO damn, we
ran
 10 yards, better stop for a few minutes to compose ourselves.  Oh, and
 whats the deal with that ghey dancing when they score a touchdown ? Are
they
 surprised they managed to make it to the end of the field without a map ??
I
 can understand the carrying on with soccer, since goals are few and far
 between (typically). And why do they have an Defensive and Offensive team,
 cant the Americans manage to do both ?

  On the other hand, if the Aussies were so tough, I'd think more would

Ed,

I think the term secretaries went out a few years ago, they're called
personal assistants or executive assistants these days.

Re: The day after superbowl

2002-02-04 Thread Glenn Corbett

I think the reason more Aussies dont try is that American football is right
down near the bottom of the list of career choices. Soccer (Real Football),
Aussie Rules, Rugby Union, Basketball, Rugby League, Baseball, and even
Cricket (possibly even Curling) are above American Football.

Aussie rules is a bit of a wierd game, sort of a cross between soccer
(strategy) and rugby (voilence). Its those damn tight shorts I think. I dont
want to spend my weekend looking at lots of men running around in tight
shorts *shudder*.

Basically the yanks are seen as wimpy for putting on all that padding before
playing a game of footy. Rugby League (whilst I cant be called a fan), has
about 1/4 the padding of AF, but the tackles are as equally violent.

Also those breaks seem to interrupt the flow of the game IMHO damn, we ran
10 yards, better stop for a few minutes to compose ourselves.  Oh, and
whats the deal with that ghey dancing when they score a touchdown ? Are they
surprised they managed to make it to the end of the field without a map ?? I
can understand the carrying on with soccer, since goals are few and far
between (typically). And why do they have an Defensive and Offensive team,
cant the Americans manage to do both ?

 I dunno how that would be.  While I appreciate Aussie rules football as a
 game, there seems to be more effort to not have the bone-jarring
collisions
 american football encourages.  But I am speaking from very limited
 experience.

 On the other hand, if the Aussies were so tough, I'd think more would try
 American football. I think there are a couple playing, notably a punter,
and
 I think an offensive lineman.

Microsoft did have an addin called exprint which you could attach to a rule

Re: Mass Email server

2001-10-02 Thread Glenn Corbett

Brent,

Exchange can deal with this no problem. One of our customers Dual PII 266,
512MB RAM box handles about 80,000 mails per day and doesn't even raise a
sweat.

You could certainly write a small batch of code to handle this, but exchange
isn't really the best solution. Look into one of the mailing list servers
like lyris, as they are better suited to this role.

 Perhaps. But Lyris can integrate right into a SQL DB and carry the load.
 Pumping 30K messages through your standard Exchange server would
 probably bring it to it's knees.
 I suppose if you had a large cluster you could probably pull it off.

Re: Move Mailbox Transfer Rate

2001-09-25 Thread Glenn Corbett

Sander,

Any reason you think that exmerge will bring along corrupted messages ?
Since Exmerge is essentially copying the message from the mailbox store to
the .PST file, a corrupted message will cause Exmerge to hiccup.

We had major store corruption some time ago, approx 600 of the 1600
mailboxes wouldn't move via the Exchange Administration tool due to
corruption. Exmerge allowed those mailboxes to be successfully moved. Simply
looking at the exmerge log file, deleting the offending message(s) from the
mailbox allowed the migration to occur in most cases.

We have also used Exmerge doing only the first phase of the migration
(extracting to .PST file), in order to determine which mailboxes were
corrupt. Have done this a few days ahead of a migration to determine those
mailboxes which will have to be manually moved. This allowed us to expedite
those mailboxes with no detected corruption, and focus our efforts on those
mailboxes that were having problems.

 Hi All

 I know one should not generalise and each system is different. I
 acknowledge these two factors, but does anyone have any stats on the
 average transfer speed they obtained while doing a move mailbox. The
 servers in question are not in my site so I cannot quickly run a test. The
 servers are on a 100 MB switch.The total mail store is approx 40 GB. I
 would like to calculate an approx time needed to move mailboxes this way,
 exmerge is not an option as the original store has corruptions in it. I
 need to check after each mailbox if the new store is still consistent.

 Any info is appreciated.

Re: TCO - Linux vs. Exchange

2001-09-15 Thread Glenn Corbett

Chris,

I know what you mean. Recently finished a 12-15,000 seat migration from
MSMail, Exchange, Notes, GroupWise (about 50 different mail installations)
into a central Exchange system. Average server size (using clustered
servers) was 1500 users not the 300 odd they were touting as the 'Industry
Average'.

I really hope they weren't talking about Open Mail, for the reasons you
specified, but I wouldn't be surprised.

Basically the TCO analysis was way off, and I really think should be
discarded. There was so many issues / information missing, that:

a) They were done but removed to simplify the article
b) They were done, but they didnt like the numbers
c) They were never analysed (either because they didn't have time, or the
reviewer had no idea)

Guess which one I think is correct :)

I have yet to see a non-biased review of implementation of Linux System vs
NT / Netware / (insert os of choice), as all the articles seem to have been
written by someone with a barrow to push. I would actually like to see one
of these 'independent's ask for a configuration and get the Linux AND
Exchange sides to configure the system as best they can, and then compare
them, not get a Linux guy to configure an Exchange system, and visa versa.

One thing I did find interesting is that bynari software is preaching Open
Source etc, but you cant download a trial version (unless were both blind)
:) Even the 'Evil' Microsoft allows trial versions to be used prior to
purchasing, I found it strange that they did not.

 I was thinking that perhaps they might have been talkign about Insight
 Groupware from Bynari (http://www.bynari.net/), but I find it interesting
 they didn't bother to go into details or specifics at all.

 2 years ago I worked as part fo an implementation team migrating 8,000
users
 from MSMail to Exchange and from personal experience I can say that there
 are a whole host of numbers which have been left out of this TCO
analysis.
 How much does it cost to deploy a client to the desktop.. are there
training
 materials for this suite, whatever it is? If so, how does the learning
curve
 compare to Exchange. Insert 100 other cost related questions here

 The only other possible decent collaborative mail solutions I can think of
 offhand which can scale to the sizes discussed in the article are OpenMail
 and Domino. If it's OpenMail, one wonders what crack the author was on to
 implement a product whose end of life cycle has been announced and if it's
 Domino, the administrative costs listed are completely off base IMHO.

 BTW, on the off chance it was Bynari I went to their website to see if I
 could download a demo version of the client and server to install on my
 Linux box. Can't seem to find one unfortunately.

 Chris,

 My additional assumption would be:

 h. Linux has an equivalent mail system to that of Exchange.

 Whilst all these numbers may be great to throw around (and based on the
 publisher they are biased towards a Linux implementation), the real
 question
 is does Linux have a mail system that could go head-to-head, or
 toe-to-toe
 with Exchange ??

 So far, the mail systems / packages / collection of unrelated
 applications
 on Linux that I've seen doesn't come close to what the Microsoft
 Exchange
 system offers. Most of the solutions seem to revolve around web-based or
 POP3, IMAP4 clients.

 Yes, there is web-based email for Linux, but no, most Exchange installs
 don't use this as the primary client.

 Yes, Exchange supports POP3, IMAP, but no, most exchange installs use
 the
 Outlook client, not Outlook Express.

 Looking at TCO number for servers and licensing is great, and is
 something
 that should be done regularly to ensure your company is receiving value
 for
 money, but unless the resulting solution provides the necessary
 functionality, what is the point ?

 I'll be the first to admit that I'm not 100% up on the offerings from
 the
 Linux community, but after recent investigations looking for a
 replacement
 for Exchange on the Linux platform for some smaller companies who see
 the
 cost of Exchange as prohibitive, I was unable to locate a complete
 solution
 that offered the same functionality. If someone would like to point me
 to
 such a solution, then maybe we can have a discussion about the TCO
 numbers /
 relative merits of such a solution.

 Glenn.
