RE: Services Not Restarting After Reboot of Server
I think it was the M: drive question which lit the touchpaper. You need to be familiar with the Exchange 2000 FAQ (its not very long) and the Appendix C *is* the M: drive. Keep at it. In a few years time you'll be helping everyone else (or getting cross with them for not knowing things that should be obvious grin). -Original Message- From: Bridges, Samantha [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 18 August 2003 14:32 To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: Services Not Restarting After Reboot of Server Thank you so much.

It happened to me when I first started learning exchange. What I've gotten out of it, is don't let one negative response stop you from still posting on this list. You are absolutely right, this list is to be used as a question/answer type of list. Or be pointed in the right direction. I think what Tony was trying to say was that instead of just asking the question, maybe trying to research it first? Maybe you are. Who knows we aren't sitting right next to you when you post. But sometimes it may appear like you're just looking for people to do your leg work for you. Maybe if you post what you've done so far before you post might give people on here a better understanding that you're trying to do the legwork but aren't finding any answers. But DO NOT get turned off by one response on this list. Keep posting. Just make sure you try to include what you've done so far when asking questions. Just trying to help you out.

RE: Upgrading thoughts from the been there done that crowd
If you need to co-exist with some users on 5.5 and some on 2003 then the ADC keeps the Exchange 5.5 directory and your new Active Directory synchronised and ensures that you can route mail between the two. If you can migrate in a single hit then you don't need it. -Original Message- From: Waters, Jeff [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 01 August 2003 12:30 To: Exchange Discussions Subject: Upgrading thoughts from the been there done that crowd I have been reading up on the AD connector for exchange and what I need to do etc. However I was wondering if I really need it at all. We are doing a new AD design and trusting back to our 4.0 domain then using the ADMIT tool to migrate users/computers and passwords over to the new domain structure (going from two to one). My thinking today has jumped over to the why do I even need to worry about the connector and upgrading exchange since part of this entire conversion is new exchange hardware anyway. We are going to wait until this fall and go right to Ex2K3 from 5.5 and skip over Ex2K. So here is my thinking, if I leave the old server alone, running on 4.0 in the old domain, then when 2K3 is released and I get the software build a new server in the AD on Win2K3. Wouldn't I be able to join that to the 5.5 organization and move the users over to the new server. Decommission the old server and remove the 4.0 infrastructure? _ 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] ** This e-mail and any files transmitted with it are confidential to the intended recipient(s).

RE: Change Roles before AD migration
Since you can't change the role of an NT4 server from DC to member server, if you really want to do this you will need to upgrade the OS to W2K, then run DCPROMO to demote it to a member server. However I agree with Ed's comments. It would seem a lot easier to me to build a new Exchange 5.5 server on a W2K platform and move the users onto it if you don't want the Exchange 5.5 server to be a DC. Even better, leave it where it is, implement AD leaving the Exchange 5.5 server as an NT4 BDC, add Exchange 2000 on a new server, move the mailboxes across, switch off the old 5.5 server. -Original Message- From: Bravo, Liliana (CIP) [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 10 July 2003 21:15 To: Exchange Discussions Subject: Change Roles before AD migration Hi folks, We are planning to migrate AD .

RE: Clustering... is it worth it?
What client configurations are you thinking of supporting? We have a centralized architecture but line speeds are not fast enough to support online access - a word doc can take over a minute to stream down to some locations. Thus we have configured Outlook in offline mode, but this makes the use of public folders very painful since if the public folders are large and marked as available offline the ost file gets very large and is more likely to break. Can't see a good way around this apart from using Notes, which seems to cope with a centralized architecture and disconnected users much better :( .

RE: Monitor Email content
Ha. Now I can see where you got it depends from! The assumption we accepted was that the line manager should know what her subordinates were doing and the HR person would ensure that it was business related. The initial request was from business manager to HR and needed sanction was required from senior person with work delegated to junior HR. If it was of a personnal nature as opposed to business related then senior HRs would be investigating with higher level managers approval. Exchange admin just there to ensure process was followed before providing access in controlled and auditable manner. If collusion was suspected I guess there would be sufficient evidence both electronic and paper to back track. Didn't write that in though. I'll put a little note aside for next time.

You have to actually perform additional full online backups as well to allow for full disaster recovery. More tapes. More time. More money. 4) A restore of several mailboxes from BLB's will cause the store to grow because of no SIS. If my SIS ratio is 2 and some disaster leaves me with only brick-level, my restore will double the size of the priv. 5) The redundant backups for brick level lower the overall performance of your exchange server as backups compete with users for CPU cycles and disk reads. It is also additional and unnecessary wear and tear on tape drives. 6) Brick Level Backups do not backup items in deleted item retention. As my users (for email anyway) have always been of the educated variety, they know and use deleted item recovery as needed

Yup, Greek and Double-Dutch are in the list of languages that need to be covered. Web links are unacceptable since there is no way of checking whether the recipient clicked the link, or they might not be online when they read the message. We thought of using Latin since most of the legal team know that. Esperanto is a bit too leading edge. -Original Message- From: Shotton Jolyon [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 18 June 2003 13:54 To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: Brick level backups - legal disclaimers *Has* anyone tested email disclaimers in the courts in the UK, EU or US? I'm not aware of any cases. I do find it ironic that lawyers, who knowingly write in a way that most people do not find clear, should be concerned that the disclaimer should be written so as to be understood by any recipient. It's all Greek to me. Or double-Dutch. Perhaps your disclaimer could consist of Legal disclaimer - you must read this in every relevant language, each linked to a web page which contains the text in that language. Or write it in Esperanto. -Original Message- From: Midgley, Ian [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 18 June 2003 14:07 To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: Brick level backups That's not funny !! I'm currently involved in discussions with our legal team regarding the validity of English language disclaimers on messages written in various different European languages (we route all our Internet mail through a single SMTP gateway in the UK). The legal team are pushing to add disclaimers in each language. Just because no-one ever reads disclaimers doesn't mean that they are not legally applicable - when was the last time you read the MS license agreement when installing software? And just because I select the other radio button and click OK doesn't mean that I have read the labels attached to those actions either. I would be interested in Williams disclaimer list if he would be happy to publish. Also, does anyone know of a disclaimer adder that is language aware? Otherwise I'm going to have to do some funny tricks with SMTP connectors and routing inside the company.

RE: ADC issue
Q270480 and Q256862. -Original Message- From: Jon Hill [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: 10 July 2002 17:32 To: Exchange Discussions Subject: ADC issue One of my VIP users has two 5.5 mailboxes--the primary one that everyone sends mail to and a private one for who knows what. The private mailbox' name is fname minitial lname (Jane E. Smith), while her public mailbox is simply fname lname (Jane Smith). We recently installed AD, E2K and ADC. No errors were reported when ADC did its initial replication, though of course lots of new mailboxes were created. Here's the catch--her NT4 userid's display name (and hence her AD userid's display name) matches the secondary mailbox name, which is apparently why ADC connected that secondary mailbox to her primary AD account and created a new disabled account for her primary mailbox. We didn't notice it until this past weekend, when I wrote a script listing all the mailboxes and their userids. How can I exchange the two mailboxes? What I want to do is reassign the primary mailbox to her primary AD account and the secondary mailbox to the disabled AD account, and then change the two accounts' display names to reflect the mailbox swap. Though we've begun our firmwide migration to E2K, both mailboxes are still on the 5.5 server. E5.5: 5.5 SP4 on NT4 SP6a E2K: E2K SP2 on W2K AS SP2 ADC is installed on a DC running W2K SP2 _ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Archives: http://www.swynk.com/sitesearch/search.asp To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin:[EMAIL PROTECTED] * Confidentiality Notice Disclaimer *** This message, together with any attachments, is for the confidential and exclusive use of the addressee(s).

RE: Quick Migration Scenario to get XCH2k OWA
Would suggest that OWA on 2K isn't a big enough driver for you to rush your AD implementation. Anything wrong with OWA on your existing 5.5 architecture? Give you a bit of breathing space to get AD built and operational. -Original Message- From: Chris H [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: 20 June 2002 16:09 To: Exchange Discussions Subject: Quick Migration Scenario to get XCH2k OWA Deep breath: If I want to get 100 people (currently in an nt4 domain/XCH 5.5 SP4) asap on xch2k OWA will this work: Install 1 backend exch2k server in my 5.5 site Install 1 frontend exch2k server in my 5.5 site (or just consolidate these onto 1 server and punch port 80/443 through firewall?)
