RE: OWA - File not found when logging out

2003-12-22 Thread Pat Richard
Okay, bad, bad evil things just happened. I re-ran the IISLockdown tool to
undo the normal settings. Now, NO ONE can get logged into OWA, including
Admin. I just keep getting prompted for user/pass. Outlook still works fine,
and mail still seems to be flowing. Remote users are burning up the phone
line

I checked the permissions on the files before doing this, and everything
looked fine. Is there a way to reinstall OWA on SBS without a lot of grief?

This is definitely a permissions problem (we had the same trouble)... I
remember having to modify the permission on this file... but I will need to
look for my notes.

404 errors like that might be related to URLScan.  Do you have that
installed?  If so, the default settings on URLscan shouldn't clobber the
logoff.asp page though...

 For some reason, when logging out of OWA, the logout page (To

 Anyone seen this before? I'm not aware of anyone tinkering with the

RE: OWA - File not found when logging out

2003-12-22 Thread Pat Richard
Okay

Got things pretty much squared away by restarting all the services including
System Attendant, and it looks like everyone can get logged in. The one
remaining issue is that one user has several (4-5 afaik) emails in his Inbox
that come up as FILE NOT FOUND when viewing them in OWA. They all have valid
subjects, etc. I'm checking into that further

No master SID for account

Greetings!
 
We have a client that gets the following Event ID 9548 error:
Disabled user /o=[domain]/ou=first administrative

Please use the Active Directory MMC to set an active account as this
user's master account.
 
We've tried http://support.microsoft.com/?id=278966, but that didn't
help. Several weeks ago, the user had the same problem, and the only way
we could fix it was to kill 
the user  Exchange account and recreate them. But now the problem has
returned, and I'm at a loss as to what's causing it.
 
Exchange 2000 SP4 on Windows 2000 SP4 on a Small Business Server 2000
box.
 
I've also looked at

Open relay issues

2003-09-04 Thread Pat Richard
Okay, I'm still looking through the archives and stuff, but it's late, so I'll post 
this before I call it a night.
 
Client has a server that suddenly shuts down.
 
I reboot and troubleshoot, to find literally TENS OF THOUSANDS of items in the badmail 
folder. All dated within the last two or three days. The server had shut down because 
the drive ran out of space.
 
So I clear that up and start nosing around..
 
I check for open relay (telnet), and can't find any problem. I start to think maybe 
this is a SoBig.F issue, until I read some of the NDRs.
 
Within fifteen minutes, badmail starts to accumulate again. I look further, and see a 
connection in the OPEN SESSIONS section of System Manager. I kill the connection after 
jotting down some details. Queues are just jammed full of crap - Viagra ads, etc.
I clear this out again, along with badmail, and start watching. Sure enough, a short 
time later, someone from the same IP subnet connects and it starts all over.
I look through a ton of articles on open relay, and everything checks out. Then, I run 
this test: http://tools.appriver.com/openrelay.php 
http://tools.appriver.com/openrelay.php  which basically tries to relay using 
various combinations of addressing formats.
Test #14 fails
Test #16 fails
Test #28 fails
#14 uses a rcpt to format of 
RCPT TO: [EMAIL PROTECTED] 
Notice the quotes.
#16 uses
RCPT TO: relaytest%appriver.com 
Notice the quotes and the %
#28 uses
RCPT TO: appriver.com!relaytest 
notice the format there.
 
I manually tried each on via telnet against the server. Sure enough, the server 
doesn't complain. But every one bounces back with an NDR complaining about the 
recipient address. So my belief is that they're attempting one (or more) of these 
methods, and all of them are bouncing, causing the badmail problem.
 
My question is, how do I close this hole? Server is Win2k SBS SP4, E2k SP3. Connection 
is firewalled T1.
 
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

RE: Can this happen with Spam ?

2003-03-21 Thread Pat Richard
But I believe that just turns it off. It doesn't disable it (I could be
wrong, but that's how I believe it to be). A user could just turn it back
on.

BTW - That's called 'web beaconing' (when images are use for tracking). It's
a very effective method for determining if email addresses are valid, and
has been used by a LOT of spammers. We've even seen HTML emails that don't
have any visible images use this by setting the width  height to 0 so the
image doesn't appear, but it still gets accessed.

Outlook has a /nopreview switch which alows you to turn off the preview pane
for your users. When you deploy Outlook you could deploy it with this
switch.

I'd love to see a lawsuit raised against spammers. Something along the lines
of emotional damages for receiving pornographic e-mail. Hit them in the
wallet - it's the only language they understand!

  Is this possible in Outlook ? The article said something
 about with the
  Preview pane being turned on in Outlook, this was more
 likely to happen or
  just opening an email with this sort of an image in it
 could also trigger
  the code. How can this happen ? This means Outlook is
 allowing some code to
  get executed that passes information back to the source.
 Isn't there a
  security patch to prevent this from happening ?

RE: Flusing log files - almost out of space

2003-02-24 Thread Pat Richard
I set the Exchange option to FULL.

I went back out there on Friday. I shut down Exchange gracefully, and
checked the logs. Everything was flushed. I nuked the logs and restarted
Exchange. Everything is working fine now.

I tweaked BENT a little in hopes that an error about writing catalogs
disappears.

Thanks to all for the refresher info. Much appreciated.

 Yep. BENT 8.x with the Exchange agent. But it appears it was only 
 flushing the logs on Fridays. Well, last Friday's job didn't finish 
 because it couldn't write the catalog to the drive (due to space). 
 BENT shows the job as successful, but there's an entry in the app log 
 about the catalog failure. That's what makes me think that's why it 
 couldn't flush. I set
the
 daily BU jobs to also flush, but it (apparently) didn't do this on 
 Monday night. I'm heading back there to look at these possible

 One problem led to many others. Drive with the log files (also the

 drive to get up to 150MB. MTA started, and it's working.

 The disk space problem also caused BENT to not run correctly because 
 it couldn't write the catalog to the disk (space was down to 7MB when 
 I got there on Monday). I believe that this caused the Exchange logs 
 to not get flushed.

 The logs now comprise 3GB of space (and growing). One successful 
 backup
has
 run since, but again, the logs aren't flushed.

 My question is (to refresh my memory)... Can I stop Exchange, copy the
logs
 to another drive for archiving, then kill the originals, and restart 
 Exchange? If I recall, it should recreate new log files, correct? (I'm 
 making the assumption that the transactions in the logs are 
 committed). It looks like the drive that the store is on has plenty of 
 space (including enough to defrag the store, etc). All services are 
 running fine. But obviously, I need to clear those logs, and want to 
 make sure it's how I remember it.

 Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Yep. In some clients you can go to

Next time you open a form, it creates a new file and caches the form.

IMC not working - error 3051 also

2003-01-17 Thread Pat Richard
Howdy - been away from the Exchange world for a little while, now thrown
back into it.
 
Just looked at the email/file server for a small firm for the first
time. No Internet email is going in or out. Mail to others within the
office appears to be fine. But the Internet Mail Connector seems to be
broken. All services are starting fine, and attempts to send an outbound
internet email message (to [EMAIL PROTECTED]) yields the following in
the event log:

A non-delivery report (reason code unable-to-transfer and diagnostic
code unrecognised-OR-name) is being generated for message C=US;A=
;P=EMEK;L=EMEK01-030117191939Z-2. It was originally destined for C=US;A=
;P=EMEK;O=EMEK01;DDA:SMTP=reply(a)mydomain.com; (recipient number 1),
and was to be redirected to . [MTA DISP:RESULT 19 136] (12)

I'm also seeing the following:

Warning
MSExchangeIS Private
MTA Connections
2000
Verify that the Microsoft Exchange MTA service has started. Consecutive
ma-open calls are failing with error 3051.

Anyone see this before? 
 
It's a simple little accounting shop with about a dozen users who are
heading into tax season. I'd greatly appreciate any assistance.
 
Thanks!

We have exchange 5.5 sp4 on NT sp6a. Users have outlook 97

One of them when any attempt to access her calendar after January 23
2002 is
made hangs up totally, outlook.exe running at 100%. That's select that
day,
select the month of January select the week of whatever. Or later

Testing shows it's the user mailbox not the machine/profile

Anyone seen this? She has a LOT of appointments going back to 1998.
calendar folder shows as a little over 1 meg in size.

any advice gratefully received,
Harriet

Take a gander at the following code.

Tell me what it does (then I'll tell you if you are correct).

SCRIPT language=JavaScript
!--
window.open('http://images.free4all.com/pop.html','').blur();
window.focus();
--
/SCRIPT

Apart from being really annoying, the obvious risk is that the site that is
opened might contain malicious code that could exploit vulnerabilities not
patched on the box that opens to them. I've taken the precursory step of
disabling Scripting: Active Scripting in OL2k. I'm looking thru the
bulletins to make certain our clients are running under all relevant
patches. AV defs are up-to-date at all levels.

What else might those Gnostics in security minutia recommend..?

Dear All
Can anyone advise me on how to recover the contents of a password protected

corporate email to send offensive material. As someone has made an official
complaint, I have been asked to go through the contents of his email account
and check for evidence of such activity. Unfortunately, the person in
question has been using a PST file and password protected it.
Many thanks

 I think Dan s idea is a nice one. I have seen a demo of HPOpenView. It
 provides functionality close to this (an I am sure most of such tools
do..).
 This will be just an extention of the same thing.

 Now Compaq and HP together we could ask Ed Crowley to suggest this to

   Not a chance I'd ever want my production servers to auto
   update anything. I
   strictly want to test each patch before I apply it to any
   production server.
 
  absolutely, but what would be nice is something like 'MS
  update server',
  which automatically downloads ALL relevant security patches
  and hotfixes,
  scans your network and alerts you to what needs applying. a management
  console should be available to allow 'drag and drop'
  deployment of security
  patches and hotfixes across the network.
 
  the system should also be intelligent enough to know the
  server applications
  you are running and how this impacts which patches should be
  run and in what
  order they should be applied.

 Hello

 I'd like to know your opinions on whether to let user's mail items on the
 server or in the wks and the size limit u recommend.

 We have less than 500 users connecting to Exchange 5.5 through Outlook
 2000/97 in a LAN. Mail is left on the server and the size limit is set to
 30MB but they want more.
 We are considering to move to Exchange 2000 where the server version
allows
 only 15GB storage. Is this enough for us?

 Thanks in advance;

 Luis

 Personally, I think working with MAPI and Offline Synchronization is far
 superior.  With a little education your presales guys might agree,
 especially the part about if they blow away their hard drives all their
mail
 will still be on the server.

 Just because everyone uses PSTs doesn't mean that the rules are
client-side.
 If you're using POP or IMAP, then they certainly are, but if you're using
 MAPI, they may well be server-side.

 Now why do you force all your users to keep their mail on their
 workstations?  Why even use Exchange, then?  Any old cheesy e-mail system
 (like Netscape Mail) can handle that.

 Rules are stored either on the server or in the client's mail profile.  If
 you get a box popping up when opening Rules Wizard, select Server.  When
 they get a new box, set up the mail profile again and Rules will be taken
 from the server settings.

 Moving a user to a different server using Move Mailbox keeps rules intact.
 Export to PST doesn't.

 they have to remake their rules, we use outlook 2000 with pst files, but
 when copying pst files it doesnt save the rules, is their away to save
