RE: Migrating from GroupWise 6.5

2003-12-18 Thread Rob Hackney
The problem here is that Greg's opinion is that accepting gifts
presents a real or perceived conflict of interest.
The key point being the word perceived.  The statement covers all
eventualities.
If the CoI is not real, it remains possible for it to be perceived -
even by only one individual - therefore proving the statement correct,
even when technically (not real) it is incorrect.
Therefore we have a circular argument on which it seems people will not
budge.
I don't believe I have mis-characterised or mis-read any of the post and
am addressing the basic premise.
Now can we move on?

Subject: RE: Migrating from GroupWise 6.5


People mis-characterize and read things into my posts that are not
there. This one I have to do in-line.

 First of all, I've seen plenty of statements by people who accurately 
 depict reasons that your opinion is bunk. You've either not read or 
 not comprehended them.
 

No one in 8 years has proven the statement flawed or illogical that when
you work in an industry and accept gifts from vendors in that industry
that it presents a real or perceived conflict of interest. This has been
the point since day one, is the point today and will be the point
tomorrow and the next day and the next.

 I've seen your comments repeatedly over the years, and continue to 
 disagree with them. Its also painfully obvious to a casual observer 
 that you're using incorrect statements in defense of your position.
 
  And ethics are not passed as laws. There is no law that
  a company's employees cannot accept gifts. The ethics that
  lawyers and doctors follow are also not laws.
 
 While this is technically accurate, in fact it is inaccurate. Both 
 these professions require licenses to practice. Lawyers who decide to 
 cross a relatively arbitrary line involving a conflict of interest can

 and have been disbarred - in other words, their license to practice 
 law is revoked. Doctors, too, can have their medical license suspended

 or revoked. In either case, they are not allowed to practice their 
 profession without that license. Ergo, those professions' codes of 
 ethics *are*, if somewhat indirect, law.
 

Yes, I understand and know all that, but that was not the point. Ethics
go far, far beyond mere laws. Lawyers can be disbarred for ethics
violations but not face any criminal prosecution. Yes, they can also be
disbarred AND face criminal prosecution, but the point was made in
response to an argument that indicated that ALL ethics must be
legislated. Don't take things out of context.

 Your most asinine statements, however, are your explicit statements 
 that being awarded a vendor sponsored honor automatically removes any 
 and all objectivity for those on whom the honor is bestowed. The fact 
 that you repeatedly use that argument shows me how weak your argument 
 really is, especially since you can't show a single instance of where 
 this actually has happened.
 

I don't say this. I say that it is a real or perceived conflict of
interest and hence a violation of basic ethics. I have stated repeatedly
that MVP's may well NEVER cause anyone to ACT unethically. And guess
what? It is irrelevant, it is still a real or perceived conflict of
interest. What part of this are you missing?

 Because the MVP community is both under NDA's to Microsoft and also 
 has private community newsgroups, you don't see that MVP's as a group 
 are some of the most critical of Microsoft's products and policies.
 
 But none of that matters to you, because we're all just in Microsoft's

 pockets anyways. Its not like 12 of the 24 servers I've deployed this 
 year run non-Microsoft OS's or anything.[1]
 

Again, it does not matter if MVP is the greatest thing since sliced
bread, results in world peace and gives every starving kid a home. None
of that changes that it is a real or perceived conflict of interest.
Again, it matters not one bit if MVP's act unethically or not, it is a
conflict of interest plain and simple. I would be willing to bet that
most if not all of the MVP's do NOT act unethically because of the
title. Guess what? Doesn't matter. Still an violation of basic conflict
of interest rules.

 So, I think its fair to say that you've not come even remotely close 
 to proving to anyone where this alleged conflict of interest is, and 
 how it negatively impacts our objectivity.
 

I didn't say that it negatively impacts your objectivity, I said it has
the *potential* to impact your objectivity. Why? Because it is a real or
perceived conflict of interest.

 And, in the interest of full disclosure, two of the three accolades in

 my signature line are from Microsoft, obviously the last two. The 
 first (MTS) was bestowed by my employer. Does that mean I'm instantly 
 biased towards my employer?
 

You obviously fail to understand what I am talking about.

Oh for f**ks sake get over this.  At the end of the day we are *only* IT
Professionals providing a service.  We're not that important in the
bigger picture.  Sure, some will abuse their position and that's a not
too nice part of human  nature - greed and nepotism.  Full stop.  It
happens all the time in business and in ALL society.  If you really have
a problem with 'ethics' then direct it towards bigger fish like the fact
the White House administration (amongst many other 'democratic'
administrations) awards the billion dollar contracts to their buddies.
Now that would make an interesting read.

Ideal setup for exch 2003?

2003-12-04 Thread Rob Hackney


I've been asked to get a 'wish list' together for next years budget so
I'm going all out for an upgrade from present setup:
Small Business Server 2k (inc exch2k) to PDC running W2k3 on present box
but will need a new box for Exch2k3
What would be a (relatively sensible) 'ideal' setup.  I've read the
recommended from MS but seem to recall that Exch 5.5 ran better on dual
processors.  Does this apply to Exch 2k3 or am I imagining things/
making it up?
BTW, I'm not talking about partition info - hardware really such as
processor speed/ dual/ memory

Exchange 2000 and 2003 can make good use of dual processors.  The
configuration will vary based upon the load and number of users you are
supporting, but here's an example of the system I just ordered for my
company:

Dell PowerEdge 4400
Windows 2000 Server
Exchange 2000 Enterprise Edition
Dual Pentium-4 Xeon 2.8 GHz Processors
2.0 GB of Dual channel DDR RAM  (4 x 512 MB DDR)
4-channel PERC Raid card

Disks:
2 x 18.2G 10k rpm drives [RAID-1] = C:\ (OS Drive)
2 x 18.2G 15k rpm   drives [RAID-1] = D:\ (Directory Store + SMTP
Queue
+ Swapfile)
4 x 73G 15x rpm drives [RAID-5] = E:\ (Information Store)
2 x 36G 15k rpm drives [RAID-0] = F:\ (Secondary Swapfile + free space
for doing Information Store maintenance)

Quantum VS160 Tape Drive (80/160GB)

Note: For those of you who have been following my saga, I was finally
able to get the executive board to approve $$$ for a new server NOW
instead of 1/2004.  I guess when you equate mail downtime to dollars and
cents, they tend to listen more closely to the IT guy!

addresses and so on but I didn't think this was possible thru hotmail

so I don't know whether POP could have been used. Would someone be able
to look at the headers below and tell me what
happened?   I believe that someone did use a POP thru hotmail and
spoofed the address but would like confirmation or correction I have
also included the original mail but deleted some parts. (incidentally,
what is the best practice for posting headers?  should I block our
sensitive stuff or is it easy enough to get hold of that it is not worth

Or you could use some form of collaboration software such as Outlook
Team Folders (similar to PF's but more versatility)- unsupported by MS
at present but it looks good.  If u can't find it I can send the pack
over -it's only about 1.6mb for both files.
Have a look at: http://www.slipstick.com/dev/teamfolders.htm

What happens when their hard drive fails, where is the backup. You have
already decided that keeping the emails is important, therefore:

1) storing the emails in a public folder is the way to go
2) Permissions can be set to only allow them to add messages and not
delete. (no different to file permissions
3) You could assign a SMTP address to the PF and get them to send on
behalf of the PF to save them .
4) Archiving after project closure to PST is the way to go (OL 2003
removes the 2GB limit)

I fear that I will run out of disk space very fast on the server. They
all have 20 GB free on their workstations, how about setting up a pst
folder on their D-drives, then they can drag the mails into that one?

 Hi there,
 
 I have been asked to think about a way to implent a kind of policy for

 keeping emails. Our users work per two, i.e. a scientiific officer and

 an assistant. They get a lot of emails about certain projects,
 but after a while emails get lost, people don't know who 
 replied etc...
 
 Now they want a system where the two people working together establish

 a sort of directory structure in which they can create a folder per 
 project and keep all correspondance in there (not as a public folder).

 The lifespan of a project can be up to fice years so the volume of 
 emails will be quite big. We have about 10 'couples' like that and 
 what they want to dio is put eachother in CC for each 
 response/received email, so that's already a duplication.
 
 Problem is that the diskspace on the E2K server has about 10 GB left 
 so I'm worried about that fact, and I don't know whether using the 
 archive function in Outlook (XP) is a good option.
 
 Does anyone want to share their opinion on this? Maybe some of you 
 have faced a similar problem?
 
 Kim

I did reply to this but am not sure if it came through.  
Thanks Tony that was a great help - forgot about the retention time -
d'oh. I did have  a bit of trouble doing this tho as when I deleted the
user, there was no red cross against the mailbox so I could not
re-attach. Ran clean-up agent and came up OK for future ref.

Hi Nate,
I have added the new AD account already and removed the 'SELF' rights
from mailbox permissions however when I try and delete the 'corrupt'ad
account, I cannot deselect the check box against 'mark this mailbox for
deletion'. Perhaps this is a Small Business server restriction?  Doesn't

It seems to me that all you need to do is add the new AD account to the
original mailbox and then remove the old corrupt account from the

Maybe I am missing something, but that should do it.

ListServ from LSOFT.COM is a good product.  You set it up on it's own
machine and subdomain  (lists.Sanantonio.gov) and let it chug.

One of the BETTER qualities of this product is that you can tune it so
that a domain only gets one message for the number of people subscribed,
rather than one message per recipient.  (i.e. twenty users are listed at
BELLSOUTH.NET.. Only one message gets sent to BELLSOUTH.NET)  You can
also chunk the traffic so that you don't flood out your ISP.

Hello All-

We currently have a division that is requesting to be able to
send mass mails through our server to opt-in recipients of a monthly
newsletter, this would be upwards of 70,000 pieces per month and will
increase as required.  My question is has anyone received similar
requests and how were they handled?  The division head assures me that
this list will be maintained and kept up to date and users who request
to be removed from the list will be, they currently outsource this
project and want to bring it in-house to save money.  I believe in the
long run this will cause more problems than the savings will add up to,
any suggestions would be appreciated.

a sub-domain with its own originating IP does help in case that gets

careful you are just because there are idiots out there who will use any

Setting mailbox permissions

2003-09-02 Thread Rob Hackney (old)

Hi, I have a site running ex2000 sp3 on an sbs2000 (windows2k sp3) box
where all permissions on the mailboxes have been set to default =none.
I have been asked to change calendar permissions to reviewer and rather
than doing each mailbox individually, I am attempting to use the setperm
tool.
Is anyone familiar with this?
It is available from
http://www.mailsoftware.co.uk/downloads.html
and is also listed on the slipstick site: 
http://www.slipstick.com/exs/permissions.htm

I have not used this before and when I read the read me it mentioned
some prerequisites:
1. Microsoft Outlook installed without Security Patch 
(Ensure CDO is installed - This is not the case with Outlook 2000) 
2. ACL.DLL registered. Use regsvr32 acl.dll
3. Logged on as user with Permissions Admin or greater on relevant
mailboxes.

3 I am fine on but 1  2 I am not sure - 1) does the security patch
refer to oulook98? The version I will be running the app from will be
Outlook2002 - I know that cdo is part of this but do I need to install
it separately?
2)acl.dll is not on my system (XP)   appears to be an uncompiled
part of the platform sdk.  Am i correct in this?

What would be the way to proceed ot should I avoid this if I have not
used cdo before and just manually configure the mailboxes?
Thanks
Rob

and is also listed on the slipstick site: 
http://www.slipstick.com/exs/permissions.htm

I have not used this before and when I read the read me it mentioned
some prerequisites: 1. Microsoft Outlook installed without Security
Patch 
(Ensure CDO is installed - This is not the case with Outlook 2000) 
2. ACL.DLL registered. Use regsvr32 acl.dll
3. Logged on as user with Permissions Admin or greater on relevant
mailboxes.

3 I am fine on but 1  2 I am not sure - 1) does the security patch
refer to oulook98? The version I will be running the app from will be
Outlook2002 - I know that cdo is part of this but do I need to install
it separately?
2)acl.dll is not on my system (XP)   appears to be an uncompiled
part of the platform sdk.  Am i correct in this?

What would be the way to proceed ot should I avoid this if I have not
used cdo before and just manually configure the mailboxes? Thanks Rob

Indeed.  I knocked up a script to remind me weekly of the size of
Badmail, and I've put it up here:

It wouldn't be too difficult to make it automatically delete the

You might not want to delete the ones in the queue folder.  Besides you
probably can't anyway since they are in use.  Are they of large size and
maybe taking a little while to be sent?  The badmail you can safely
delete.

Outlook team folders

2003-06-20 Thread Rob Hackney
Has anyone used the Outlook Team folders that is now discontinued?
I'm trying to get the outlook team folders wizard to work on my system
(sbs2000/ exch 2000 sp3) however I am getting the following error:
Error: occurred during HTTP publishing of Web files. Select OK to try
another destination to publish your files to or Cancel to exit the
wizard. 

According to Q250861 I need to install it on NT4 then upgrade - not an
option.  However, on http://www.slipstick.com/dev/teamfolders.htm it
states I need to install the web publishing wizard which I have done
however I am still getting the error.  Does this require a reboot to get
it to work?  Or any other ideas?
Thanks

Help on Q327378

2003-06-11 Thread Rob Hackney

Hi,
I've been reading q327378 about changing mailbox size limits in a
reasonable time and have added the value for the exchangeIS.
Should I be concerned that there is not the value  for
Dsaccess\Instance0\CacheTTLUser in my registry or one for Mailbox cache
limit?
If not concerned I can just go ahead and add it, right?
Thanks

FW: Outlook prob removing old account

2003-06-09 Thread Rob Hackney
Hi, 
Exch 2k sp3 outlook 2k
As per Ed's 'never restore' method, I have set up mailbox retention on
my departing users.  I gave permission  to the admin account to access a
users mailbox  who has departed in order to check any emails.  I have
since deleted the mailbox and account within AD however I still have the
mailbox showing under folder list for the admin account.  I have removed
it from the admin  account properties  advanced tab under outlook so I
am not sure why it would still be there.  Has anyone got any ideas a)
why it still may be there b) how to remove it from there?   I'm thinking
either stop/ start IS or recreate account/ mailbox.
Google/ Technet didn't throw up anything I could find but then that may
be my search criteria.
Thanks

Priv1.edb and stm

2003-06-09 Thread Rob Hackney

Hi, 
Exch 2k on sbs2k - all SP'd up
I had a little scare earlier on with a simultaneous virus alert on one
user and a disk space warning from my server which turned out to be
totally unconnected however while I was trouble shooting a noticed a
couple of odd things:
1)  disk space on the server was decreasing rapidly from 8gb  7.5 
6.5 gb in the space of about 5 mins - anyone experienced this before?  

2)  my priv1.edb is @ 7.2 gb while the stm file was at 2.9gb.  I
looked at my users mailboxes and the total size of their mailboxes was
under 6gb.  Why would the   the two priv files be more than my users
mailboxes if the edb + stm = information store?  I'm probably missing
something here as I'm still pretty new to exch2k?

TIA

Quick question re backup

2003-03-26 Thread Rob Hackney


Using exch 2000 sp3 with backupexec 8.6 for sbs2000:
If I am backing up the microsoft information store but not microsoft
exchange mailboxes or the M: drive then there is no point in 
backing up program files\exchsrvr is there? Or should I still backup
the program files\exchsrvr directory but deselect the mdb data
directory?
I thought I had set up the backup procedure so that I wasn't doing BLB's
but I had to examine the procedure closely as I am having trouble
getting all our data onto a 40/80gb dltIV tape with hardware compression
enabled (otherwise software).  
I've had a look at the faq and had a good search around the archives etc
but cannot find a definitive answer on this.
Thanks

Do not back up M: as it can corrupt the store.

Do not back up exchsrvr\*data directories as all the data those
directories is transient or the files are open.  The only exception is
exchsrvr\kmsdata (if you use it), which you can only back up
successfully if you shut down the Key Management Server service first.

Strange attachment problem

2003-01-22 Thread Rob Hackney

Hi all, have searched archives/ technet and done a google but no joy...
I have a user who is using Outlook98 on our exch 2k server
She has been complaining that a recipient never receives attachments
from her.  
I have tested her logged into another pc - still on outlook 98 and
recipient got the attachment. 
Sending the mail from another users mailbox also resolves this (using
w98/outlook 98 and also XP/outlook2002).
I have since set her up on the pc that seemed to send from her account
ok and the recipient still is not receiving attachment but I sent it to
my home account and got that ok.
Is it a problem at our end or could it be the recipients problem?
I'm a bit puzzled...
Thanks
Rob

RE: Strange attachment problem

2003-01-22 Thread Rob Hackney
Thanks but perhaps I wasn't clear.  The recipient will get the
attachment if *sent* from another mailbox - tested from a w98/outlook98
pc and a xp/outlook2002 pc and from users mailbox when configured on
another pc (w98 or xp) on another pc.  When I send from the users
w98/outlook98 pc, the recipient doesn't get attachment.
I've checked all the mailbox restrictions and they are all set as
default.

BUT, the problem with letting OL block the files is two fold. 
A) They are still in the IS.
B) They can be accessed with OWA.

Relying  on OL to do your content blocking is a poor method. It should
be the last step, certainly NEVER the first. And since virtually any
Exchange based AV will do this for you, why not take advantage of such a
great feature?

RE: Sending email from different companies.

2002-11-25 Thread Rob Hackney
It depends on what you want to achieve...
If these people are to *always* send from company B (new company)then
just add the new (smtp) mail address in their mailbox properties and set
that as primary/ reply address.
Alternatively, if they only need to send occassionally, then set up
another mailbox for these users, set the mail address as above, assign
it to the relevant users and create a new profile for outlook on their
pc's.  They can then chose to go into either account (by setting up the
'prompt for user' in outlook).  You could also go further and set
delegate permissions etc.

RE: Move Exch2k to a new server

2002-11-19 Thread Rob Hackney
What type of server is the advanced server (ie pdc/ member)?  SBS is a
pdc so if you've set up the new server as that also, I don't think it's
possible.
You could put the 2 servers on different network segments and exmerge -
or exmerge and copy to backup tape.
You can use the csvde or ldifde to create the users/ mailboxes - plenty
of articles on technet about this
Upgrading to  backoffice when you already have an advanced server there
is a bit of a waste of money (unless you are going to use it but the way
I read you it is going away)
I recently had to merge 2 domains - one on existing sbs2k and the other
on sbs4.5  Used exmerge, data to tape and import onto sbs2k - worked a
treat.

Subject: Move Exch2k to a new server


I am moving exchange 2k to a new server and am using the procedures
found at http://www.swinc.com/resource/e2kfaq_appxa.htm and I guessed
based on Ed Crowley's instructions for moving exch 5.5.  Anyway, I'm on
step 7 which says Create new mailbox stores and public folder stores on
the new server to match the old server (This is not a requirement per
se, you might instead choose a different configuration to take advantage
of new and improved hardware).  However, I look in the Exchange Manager
and do not find my new server.  I only see the old server which is still
in production. Any explanation why I don't see my new server?

This new server has AD installed and is in the same tree as the old
server. In the interest of full disclosure, the old server is Small
Business Server 2000 and my attempt is to install the new server as
Win2k Adv Server and Exch2k.  Eventually, the old SBS will go away.

Thank you,

RE: Quick disaster recovery question (if there is such thing)

2002-10-22 Thread Rob Hackney
I had a similar setup at my old place.
We had an online spare server that was setup to xcopy relevant files (*.edb/etc)from 
exch server to itself over night.
However, we had created a dual boot on it.  primary boot was just as member server 
that was effectively an archive box but secondary boot was a mirror of the exch 
server.  that way, when (and it did) the exch server went down, I simply took out the 
exch server and booted the backup (used netdom to remove and add the servers to the 
network)into its secondary config.  Ran isinteg patches etc and voila was online in 
about an hour or so.  disadvantage was that it lost the days emails tho...

 You can also open PST files with photoshop, but you have to 
 rename them with a .PSD extension. Once you do that, you can 
 manipulate the files with the graphics tools in that program. 
 I just love applying a mosaic filter to my Sent Items folder...

 Hi exchangers,
 
 Does anyone know of a utility that will allow a user to view 
 their pst off line without importing it into your current 
 mailbox to see old messages.  If there is none, can anyone 
 suggest the best practice to perform this function?

Hi.  I need an advice on a server migration.

Here is my situation.

I actually have an exchange 2000 server in site B and all my users are in
site A.  I want to set up a new server with Exchange 2000 Server and move
exchange data from site B to site A.  After migration, I want to turn off
site B's server.

Data currently on site B's exchange server is mailboxes and public folder
(very large folders).  Currently, both sites aren't in the same
organisations.

My questions are:
- What are considerations I might thing about?
- What tools do you recommand me to use?
- Is there a procedure on how to do the migration?


Maybe another question on this.  What kind of hardware (CPU speed, memory,
Hard drive space, etc) my server must be?  I have about 20 users connecting
through a mapi client (Outlook 2000).  Our corporate databases are stored in
public folders and users use them a lot.

RE: Exchange server migration

2002-10-15 Thread Rob Hackney

I had a similar migration going from sbs4.5 (site1) to sbs2k (site2)
Used exmerge and it went like a dream but I din't have public folders and as far as i 
recall, public folders cannot be done.
There are some articles on technet (see sbs2000 upgrade migration white papers) which 
tell you how to go about this.
You'll need a decent amount of disk space as exmerge copies users mailboxes to 
individual *.pst files which are then imported. (make sure you check the attributes of 
the pst files - sometimes can put a readonly which must be taken off)
Make sure your users clear out as much cr*p out of their mailboxes.
I've got some notes if you'd like me to pmail them to you?

RE: OT - Web Mail hosting

For your company users or to resell? If the former, OWA
- no, not company users - already have OWA thanks so would be 'reselling'

How many users do you want to have on the system, and what it is the
purpose of said system.
well, I've been asked to think about 10,000 users/ subscribers but whether we get that 
amount is another matter!
It's basically to offer our customers on the retail side of the business an 
alternative to hotmail etc - so they can have a 'lifestyle' email address.
The retail side of our business has mail/internet order and also 15 shops nationwide 
and we sell skateboards/ inline blades/ bmx's and clothing/ accessories.
Thanks to the other suggestions - I'll look into them.

Yes, they are cumulative. One important note however - if you received a
special hotfix on top of a certain service pack (say SP2) close to the
time before the next SP was released (SP3), that hotfix isn't guaranteed
to be in the next SP (SP3 in this case). You should check with the PSS
engineer who gave you the hotfix to verify this.

Do you have a fireproof safe at all?  I would have thought you would even if you are a 
small business.  To get a little (boltdown)safe that is fireproof for an hour or so 
(hopefully long enough for the fire service to get there plus maybe put it somewhere 
sensible) isn't too expensive and you can put all your system media in there as well.
Plus take one offsite at end of every week.

This has got to be a joke. Taking a spare drive from a RAID 5 is not a valid
backup scheme...  It doesn't protect you at all.  The spare drive is a
mirror of one of the drives that's actually part of the RAID.  Since there's
no way to guarantee that the data on the drive it was mirroring wasn't
changed during the night (unless the machine it's attached to is shut down
prior to the removal of the drive in which case the probability of a drive
failure is 0 anyway) then the spare is useless and the RAID is just as
broken.

Subject: urgent backup problem


hi all, 
can anyone help me with the following scenario:

sbs4.5 exch 5.5 sp4
tape drive has failed and I'm waiting for a new one to replace it.
However,
as I've had to test the tape drive to make sure that it really is
knackered
and not anything else, consequence is that there has been no decent
backup
of exchange data. i've re-read the wp on disaster and recovery planning
and
also the wp on disaster recovery which was kind of useful but as have no
tape drive or hot spare then I've decided to stop the services and copy
the
relevant files (*.edb/ *.dir/ *.log/etc) to a network drive.  However, I
don't think I've got the syntax right for xcopy (would include it but
haven't got it with me) and also I scheduled it to run at 23.00 but had
error saying did not start - not sure why yet. Should I be using xcopy
or
should I use plain copy? Has anyone got any tips or syntax for copy - my
programming skills (yes even for batch files) are virtually non
existent...
Am I missing anything? Could anyone replying cc

RE: urgent backup problem

Thanks Paul, sounds good  - but rather than trying to run the install
(cos I can't) does anyone know if I can copy the files across and which
ones I need?  And what do you mean about moving the mapi32.dll?

Rob,

Usually you are running Outlook on the same PC, this has a different
Mapi32.dll and is a version that the exch admin prog does not like. So
when
installing rename the Outlook one, install then make sure that the exch
admin dll is copied to the bin directory it is installed to and then
rename
the Outlook one back. I don't know off hand where you are going to get a
installable copy of the admin or what all the files it requires (there
is a
few as I have tried to help a friend in your position, told him in the
end
to get hold of a old MS select CD and install from there and patch it).

Cheers
Paul

2002-08-27 Thread Rob Hackney

Hi,
exch2k and outlook2000 enviroment:
A user has had an ndr sent to him but when he tried to open it, it
failed to open (using outlook 2000) and just hung.  Is there anyway of
viewing this mail within the administrator program?  I have had a look
in the badmail directory but it is not in there as it has been delivered
to his mailbox.
You'll have to forgive me as I'm still getting my head round exch2k.  



 I have had this before for a previous client who was running exch5.5
and all I did for this was logon to his mailbox (using the basic mail
program)  and check the relevant ndr but i can't do this this time as
the server has outlook2k on it and has the same problem.  

tia

ahhh permissions.  This is another area I'm still getting my head round.
Do you mean permissions through outlook or through AD?
I';ve tried the former but no joy as the client on the server is
outlook2000 and has the same problems.  I'll give OWA a go.  Not usre if
it is set up tho.

You could still log into his mailbox using your client - just give

Alternatively, you could try getting the user to open the message with

odd profiles

2002-08-16 Thread Rob Hackney

Hi all,
can anyone shed some light onto the following...
On my exch 5.5 sp4 server, if I look at the profiles on the inbox mail
client I have the following listed: 
ExchangeAdmin servername  0x04c63a
ExchangeAdmin servername  0x04da3f
ExchangeAdmin servername  0x04f24b
ExchangeAdmin servername  0x3b9d4a
ExchangeAdmin servername  0x3c514f38  
plus a few other similar.
I don't believe they are that important but are they?  and can they be
removed safely?

RE: Resource Scheduling

2002-08-16 Thread Rob Hackney

I had a similar environment in my old job which was on an exch5.5
server.  If i needed to check how had sent the meeting requests, I think
the way I did was just to log on to that mailbox using the mail client
on the server and checking the inbox.  I'm afraid I can't remember
exactly how I did it but it was similar.  
There are probably better ways of doing it tho.

while logged on with the conf room profile, go to Tools, Options,
Calendar Options.  Click the Resource Scheduling button, tick the first
two items here that have check boxes (automatically accept and
automatically decline conflicts).  Make sure to set up permissions
correctly.

Then take a look at the Free/Busy button - default is fine, but you
might want to publish more than 2 months of free/busy for these conf

exmerge or not?

2002-08-14 Thread Rob Hackney

Hi all,
I am planning a migration from 5.5 to an existing 2k/AD server because
of an office relocation.  2 different sites which are not connected  but
same domain (kind of...  Under NT the domain is called mydomain and
under SBS2k it is mydomain.co.uk).
I've read up on the WP and also related KB, plus the Ed Cowley move
server method - I tried to read to read appendix k in the faq but it
will not enlarge.  Any reason why?  They don't quite seem to address
what I have to do tho.
Anyway, I would like your opinions on the best way to migrate the data -
Would the best way to do it just connect the 2 sites once they are
physically together and use the migration wizard? Or should I use
exmerge or can I use the alternate method of copying the edb files?  If
i copy the edb, how to I get the data in that into the exch2k edb files?
Would I also be correct in assuming that if I use the migration wizard,
then the user accounts will also be created?
Has anyone ran a similar migration before?
This will be tested 1st of course.
TIA

 First, ignore the advice of reading the RFC's and headers. If an
 individual signed up for a web email service such as Hotmail 
 or Yahoo! or
 brain.com.pk under false pretenses then you will have to contact the
 provider to see if they can help you track down the abuser. All the
 headers are going to tell you is that the email message came from an
 account on www.brain.com.pk which is pretty useless since you 
 already know
 that. They should at least be able to disable the account for 
 you and may
 have some information related to what computer was used to access that
 account.
 
 If the user had instead used the common SMTP hack to forge a 
 From address,
 then the RFC's and headers would come into play. But 
 depending on how they
 did the hack, you still would probably not be able to 
 determine much if
 they did anything to help cover their tracks.
 
 As you have discovered, in the world of SMTP and free email 
 services, it
 is extremely easy to forge the From address of an email and it is
 difficult, if not impossible to track this down if the person 
 doing it has
 any amount of a brain what-so-ever. Tell your executives to 
 deal because
 it is the nature of SMTP and the Internet.

  Today, our senior executive's received Illegal/unsolicited 
 email with =

Thanks for all your replies - most helpful.
And don't worry, it is legit mass mailing - all recipients have signed

All,

I am installing Exchange 2000 and active directory connector. The

I

this connection agreement? Also what is the best method for checking
that
name resolution is working properly prior to Exchange 2000 installation?

Under what circumstances would a logon occur on the Exchange service
account?  I was looking through my event log and found that the service
account logs on occasionally.  Often it is between 2:00 AM and 3:30 AM
but
it doesn't occur every day and it doesn't appear to be closely
associated
with any particular event such as a system backup or reboot.  I'm
wondering
if I have a hacker might be logging on using the service account?  I
changed
the service account password yesterday and still got a logon last night
at
3:11 AM.  There were no failed logons.  Thanks for your comments.

Karon

It's simple.  Your manager is convinced that there are hotfixes that you
haven't found yet.  Okay, just (for the sake of the argument), assume
he's right - always a good career move to give the boss the benefit of
the doubt. If/when you find the info about the hotfix that you don't
have, where are you going to get it from?  Microsoft PSS, that's where.
So I assume your boss is happy to crash the $199 or whatever a PSS call
costs these days  - and if he's right, and it's a hotfix, they'll refund
your card.  So just short circuit the search, and ring PSS anyway - tell
'em the symptoms, and ask 'em for the hotfix.  If they've got one, you
get it and your fee back, and your boss off your back.  If not, PSS (not
you) prove him wrong, and the $199 he gambled is gone.  Either way, so
is the problem.

When you ask him to gamble his $199, he might suddenly not be so sure
about a hotfix you don't have.

Let us know the outcome.

 I don't know.  Everything is running fine on that server.  We 
 occassionally have problems backing it up and occassionally it's slow 
 and we have to reboot it but I blame all of that on Backup Exec.  This

 server has a 1gb of ram and the store.exe uses 75% or more of that and

 according to this new Sys Mgr who has every certification they make, 
 that's NOT normal.  I've been asked to totall re-vamp this server 
 because he's alarmed upper management that it's going to die in 60 
 days if we don't do something.  He said that there are new patches or

  I know that Exchange is designed to take up ALL THE RESOURCES it 
  wants and then NOT release them until another application 
  specifically requests it. But, if it's supposed to release resources

  to other apps and it's not that could be a problem right?
 
 
 
   There might be.  Check their websites to be sure before you tell 
  him
   that there aren't.  Those products have had memory leaks in the 
   past, and you don't want to overlook them.  Regardless, store.exe 
   will use up just about all available RAM hotfixed or not; it's by 
   design.

   Forgive for being ignorant but what is PSS?  I've tried to explain

   this to him I've showed him several emails from this forum and 
   others but his remarks are, I don't believe that.  Exchange 5.5

   has been out 6 years and I know they've fixed this by now.  He 
   doesn't believe
 
   me at all. Nice huh, when you're management don't take you 
   seriously.
  
   So, he has me searching all sites and forums for hotfixes that he 
   swears he saw.  They're might be some for Backup Exec and for 
   Groupshield but not for Exchange 5.5 SP4.
  
  
  
  
  
  
There are always new hotfixes.  However, except for security 
hotfixes,
  
you are not supposed to install them without guidance from PSS.
   
The behavior you describe is normal.  Forward this to your 
systems manager.

 Don't forget to restart the IMS as well as the IS after you do change

 I've already read the faq  an plenty of Q articles, and in my opinion,
 that article (and most others) only relates to exchange 5.5.  I do not
 have routing restiction button under the routing tab.  Q169683  refers
to
 putting a # sign infront of any routed domains - do I do this when
adding
 the routed domain - ie #domain.com inbound  ?
 My problem is the software they are running is old - SBS 4 and
exchange 5
 sp2.  I cannot get the upgrade (to SBS 4.5 which includes exch 5.5) in
the
 UK as it is discontinued and you cannot technically upgrade to SBS 2k
- it
 is a fresh install.
 
 I've turned routing off for now  as I found that it was not necessary
and
 also switched the IMS off over the weekend but when the IMS is on, the
 administrators mailbox is filled with ndr's as the relay is no longer
open
 and the queue gets clogged ensuring no legit mail gets sent out.  Not
only
 that but I am still open to reverseUCE apparently.
 
 Can anyone help me with this - I need some hands on advice.
 Thanks

Your point being? 
I have read almost all I could find on this problem (inc the faq) - this

We are running SBS4/exchange 5 sp2 NOT exchange 5.5
The article in the faq and q169683 relate to exch 5.5.  I cannot see any
routing restrictions tab in the version of each I am running.
The article q169683 may help - do I put the # sign in front of the

#mydomain.com  inbound?
For the time being, I have turned off rerouting but I am still getting
ndr in the administrators mailbox, plus all the messages in the queue
which is putting a strain on resources and preventing legit mail going
out.
It would be nice if the problem was read properly rather than just being
dismissively told to read the faq.
Please don't say upgrade to exch 5.5 because it apparently isn't
possible if you are running sbs4.

I've just started at a new company and their systems are in a bit of a
mess.
On one site (different domain), they are running NT SBS 4 with exchange
5
sp1.
Their mail server is being used as a spam relay.  The free upgrade to NT
sbs 4.5 (and thus exchange 5.5) has been discontinued in the UK so
cannot
do that.  Installing SBS2K will take too long.
I've checked technet and the only article I could find relevant to
exchange 5 was  q199656 however it doen't make much sense to me.  DO i
need to install exhc on another server - what if I don't have one?
Any ideas anyone?

ndr in the administrators mailbox, plus all the messages in the queue
which is putting a strain on resources and preventing legit mail going
out.
It would be nice if the problem was read properly rather than just being
dismissively told to read the faq.
Please don't say upgrade to exch 5.5 because it apparently isn't
possible if you are running sbs4.
Thanks
Rob

Subject: exchange 5 relay/spamming


I've just started at a new company and their systems are in a bit of a
mess.
On one site (different domain), they are running NT SBS 4 with exchange
5
sp1.
Their mail server is being used as a spam relay.  The free upgrade to NT
sbs 4.5 (and thus exchange 5.5) has been discontinued in the UK so
cannot
do that.  Installing SBS2K will take too long.
I've checked technet and the only article I could find relevant to
exchange 5 was  q199656 however it doen't make much sense to me.  DO i
need to install exhc on another server - what if I don't have one?
Any ideas anyone?
thankns
Rob
