Yeah those won't be affected.

RE: New accounts not showing up in GAL
This quote from MS Q319065 is what scares me. If you perform a rebuild operation, all proxy e-mail addresses are recalculated and all address list memberships are verified. Perform a rebuild operation if you make a change to organizational policy on SMTP addressing (for example, if you change from a .com to a .net location or if you change the DNS domain name). A rebuild operation may take several hours; Microsoft recommends that you perform this operation only when the network is quiet -Original Message- From: Varghese, Wilson Sent: Tuesday, January 28, 2003 9:08 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: New accounts not showing up in GAL Hehe..

Unable to reply or forward to email in OWA, Exchange 2000
Exchange 2000 in a native mode child domain. OWA server setup as front end server in DMZ. 5 exchange 2000 servers scattered across the world, one in each remote office. For one office, they can't forward or reply to emails in OWA. All other remote offices are fine. I've tried logging in as one of the users from my machine and I can't respond or forward emails either. But I can from my own mailbox. looks like this is happening to everyone in that particular office. The users have the same rights and everyone else. Anyone have any ideas on what I should check?

Indexing on Exch2k Sp2
I swear I get the weirdest errors.. Anyone have an issue with indexing all of a sudden stop working? All of a sudden the last 4 days are not being indexed. I checked to see if it was paused but it wasn't. It's scheduled to run all the time and it used to display new messages within a few minutes of receiving them. But the last message I can pull up with a search is from the 22nd of this month. Search on support site with indexing pulled up 56 articles but none seem to be what I'm looking for. What's the normal procedure for something like this? Do you just delete the index and recreate? Only change I've made is adding more Exchange servers to the environment. But these servers are at different locations around the world and currently they do not have any users on it. Christ, things like this are so frustrating... If anyone can point me to someplace that might have some information that would be great.

Is there a way to put multiple smart hosts in the General Tab on the SMTP connectors? I have two bridgehead servers I want to use to send messages to. One in CA, one in Indiana. Can I put both IP numbers in there enclosed in []? If so, what's the separator? Comma, semicolon, or space? Also would this work in a fail over situation? If this, can't be done..

need help with setting up a recipient policy
Hello Everyone, There are two domains with two different exchange orgs. One is exchange 2000 (xxx.com), one is 5.5 (yyy.com). We are in the process of migrating users from the 5.5 domain/org to the 2000 domain/org. We have an SMTP connector setup currently to send all emails to yyy.com from our org through a VPN connection. We just migrated about 20 users from one remote office onto our exchange server. (dumped their emails into a PST and imported them into a new account at xxx.com) We put [EMAIL PROTECTED] as their primary SMTP address, but added [EMAIL PROTECTED] so they can still receive emails to the old address for a while. Well now people that send them emails are getting a bounce message with the following.. X-Display-Name: lastname, firstname - MOVED. I tried to create a new recipient policy but I don't know if I'm doing it right. Anyone have a step by step on how to do this by chance?

RE: Server Protect on an Exchange Server
Actually this is right. I had Norton virus scanner and the Exchange version running on an old Exchange 5.5 Server and when we got hit by a virus, it ended up quarantining the log (or was it the DB, can't remember) file and killing the exchange server.. So if you do scan with a file level virus scanner, exclude the Exchange, DB, and log directory. wilson -Original Message- From: Chris H [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, August 30, 2002 4:38 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: Server Protect on an Exchange Server I was having a discussion with someone on a Security List the other day who said it was nonsense to NOT run AV on an Exchange Server.

w3svc causes error 36
I was asked by MS PSS to : 1. Uninstall IIS 2. Reinstall IIS 3.

RE: Exchange 2000 SP3
We are running: Two GC/DC in our SF office for the root domain, and one child domain with a GC/DC also. Exchange 2000 is on a win2k sp2 server in the child domain. We have three exchange server, all win2k sp2, with exchange 2000 sp3. One is our primary server in SF, one is an OWA server in the DMZ (front end server) and one in our Walnut Creek office (this server has zero mailboxes so far) Outlook client is, Outlook 2000. I'm not sure where the message gets stuck at, or if it's one particular message that blocks the whole queue and prevents the rest from being picked up. If you can give me some pointers on how to check if the message is in IS or categorizer queue, that would be helpful. But we do know that if we restart the IS, everything works fine for a couple of hours and the process starts all over again. MS is having us dump everything and send them the log files and they are forwarding it to their debug team. Let's hope this gets resolved fast because I got some pissed off users and managers.

RE: HELP, can I change the name of the exchange server?
Thanks Kanee, My reasoning for removing the original server right away was because of the damn bug.

Thanks again, Wilson -Original Message- From: kanee [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, August 15, 2002 10:52 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: HELP, can I change the name of the exchange server? Right now renaming a e2k server is hard. Since it uses AD renaming the netbios name is not a good idea unless you are very familiar with ADSI edit utility. IT seems simple enough to change the netbios name but I am not sure that all instances of that name will get changed in the AD structure, its just like renaming a domain, right now you can rename a child domain but you have ti do a lot of stuff thru adsi edit to make it work because not all instances of the domain name get changed in the AD structure, not to mention the changes in the registry. That's why they have made it easier to rename the child domains in .NET. But I moved a exchange server from ny to ma, changed ips put it into a completely different ip scheme and it worked like a charm, given that changing an IP is much easier than renaming, but I think you should be ok to rename as long as you make sure the new name has an account in the domain, all your wins records are updated and your dns records are updated. But if you are so concerned about the bug on the old server, once you move all the mailboxes to the new server, why don't you just remove the old server from the site, that way the old server is totally out of the picture. JUST MAKE SURE YOUR MX RECORDS ARE POINTED TO THE RIGHT SERVER, ALSO IF YOU DO THIS AND REMOVE THE OLD SERVER OUT OF THE SITE THEN YOU MIGHT HAVE TO MANUALLY EDIT ALL THE OUTLOOK PROFILES. SO I SUGGEST MOVING ALL MAILBOXES OVER TO NEW SERVER, MAKE THE MX RECORD POINT TO NEW SERVER THEN MAKE SURE YOU HAVE MAIL FLOW FOR A DAY, IN ONE DAY MAKE SURE ALL YOUR CLIENTS CONNECT TO EXCHANGE SERVER, THIS WAY ALL THEIR OUTLOOKS ARE UPDATED AUTOMATICALLY WITH THE NEW SERVER NAME AND THEN REMOVE THE OLD SERVER OUT OF THE SITE.

RE: Really annoying when you disable an account.
Well that kind of sucks. That's what I was hoping you weren't saying :P Crud... what's the point of disabling an account if you have to create a temp account to associate with the old mailbox? Since you can only have one account associated with a mailbox, I will have to create a lot of accounts to do this. Wow, how lame. Thanks a lot for the help though. wilson -Original Message- From: Tom Meunier [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, May 03, 2002 9:49 AM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: Really annoying when you disable an account.

Go create another, active account named Zaphod Beeblebrox and associate that mailbox with it. Note that it doesn't have to be named Zaphod Beeblebrox, it could also be named Peter Tosh. -Original Message- From: Varghese, Wilson [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Posted At: Friday, May 03, 2002 11:10 AM Posted To: MSExchange Mailing List Conversation: Really annoying when you disable an account.

NDRs on disabled accounts
How do I turn off the NDRs that keep coming for user accounts in AD that were disabled? I don't want to delete the mailbox just yet, want to keep it around for a few months, but the NDRs keep popping up. If the only way is to remove them manually from all the groups, then I can do that but was wondering if there was a check box I'm overlooking.

status of emails in a dismounted Information store
Anyone know what happens to emails that are being sent to an account that is in a dismounted store? I tested this out, but the emails just vanished. I created a test store, and moved a test mailbox to it. I then sent test emails which delivered fine. I then dismounted the store, and sent more test emails. I didn't get any NDRs so I assumed it's being queued someplace? Well I brought the store back up, but the emails are not in there and after an hour, it's still not in there. No NDRs still either. So what happened to these emails? Thanks in advance.

RE: Help with mail enabled Public folder
Thanks Craig. I need to sit down with those guys and go through this also. Just wish they weren't so damn defensive whenever you ask them a question.. Just an FYI, when you type in the address and do a ctrl+K in your outlook (internal users) you get the public folder icon next to the name in the search window. (the little yellow folder with an envelop on it). So you know you are sending it to a public folder. Wilson -Original Message- From: Dupler, Craig [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, February 18, 2002 3:01 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject:RE: Help with mail enabled Public folder Remember, all (well most) SMTP addresses are relative. It's not that there is no such thing as a FQN or FQA, it's just that the combination of MX records and relay host pointers can move mail with identical addresses via numerous routes. There is a difference between saying that a specific address is no longer valid, and the process by which an address gets resolved and the message delivered has changed. One of the tools that you need, is a happy chart. Working with your network engineer, lay out exactly how name resolution and delivery works. Do not combine any steps. Your flow should read something like . . . Client Path . . . 1. Message picked up by MAPI services from Outlook. 2. Message received by Exchange Server MTA. - if address is in AD format, MTA attempts internal delivery - if address is not in AD format, it is handed to a gateway assigned to that format. Exchange Path . . . 1. blah blah 2. blah blah X.400 Path . . . 1. blah blah 2. blah blah Digital fax path . . . 1. blah blah 2. blah blah SMTP Path . . . 1. gateway receives message from MTA 2. Gateway looks up name of its relay host. It is (write it down here!) 3. Gateway calls its DNS server (write it down the name here!*) for the IP address of its relay host 4. Gateway opens port (probably 80) on its realy server 5. blah blah * note that if the IP stack on your gateway server uses a static address, then the DNS server's numeric IP address is likely specified in your network stack's property sheets. If however you are using DHCP resolution, your gateway server gets the address of its DNS server updated each time it is booted, so you should lay out the details of exactly what your DHCP server does, and so on. The idea is to make sure that every last minute detail of houw your system works is in a map in your hands. You have to have that map. It is extremely important. Your job depends on it. Once you have a detailed map of how your system works, then tracing the problem will be straight forward. You simply follow the dots until you find one that isn't connected. It is asking too much to simply know every last detail without having ever mapped it out. -Original Message- From: Varghese, Wilson [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, February 18, 2002 2:38 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: Help with mail enabled Public folder Hmm.. users do type in [EMAIL PROTECTED] which resolves to same name.

OWA and large attachments.
I was wondering if anyone else have issues sending large attachments with OWA (on Exchange 2000)? I can send a 1mb attachment via hotmail or yahoo in about 15 seconds, but when I try the same thing with OWA, it just hangs there for several minutes.

RE: OWA and large attachments.
Ok, I logged on locally to the OWA Server and I could attach files fine, even big ones. One major difference seems to be the server is using IE 5.0 SP2, and the laptops are using 5.5 sp2. I will check and see if 5.0 on the desktop will work, to see if this is just a 5.5 issue. Anyone else with 5.5 sp2 that can test this? Just want to see if this is with all IE 5.5 or just our setup of it.

One could do it two ways - stupidly or neatly. The stupid way would be to pull the data from the OWA U/I. The neat way would be to build an extension to the OWA server that made the synch data available to a browser plug-in, which in turn would update any of several local stores. A good implementation would support the following stores at a minimum: .OST Pocket PC and Pocket PC 2002 Palm/Handspring I doubt that it is worth doing a .PST synchronizer. If you stop and think about it, it is really lame that a PDA can't call Exchange, look at the store contents in a browser, and then synch anything that is worth the bandwidth cost (time and money). This is especially true if you consider something like a Stinger phone.

Exchange 2k OWA in a DMZ
Here is the deal: We have a exchange 2000 front end and back end server. The front end server was working great as an OWA server when we did the setup and initial testing. (inside our network). Soon as I moved it to the DMZ, Exchange services wouldn't start on this server. We even went to the hassle of putting an any rule on the firewall so nothing was blocked from the Front end server (DMZ) to the internal network, and from the internal network to the front end server. Been working on this for over 2 days now and can't seem to figure out why Exchange can't access AD to start. LDAP communication is happening both ways, I can log in to the server, etc.. Another kicker is, when I tried to uninstall exchange 2k on the front end server, it says it can't connect to AD or doesn't know what site it's in... WTF.. Anyone have any ideas? Please? Thanks in advance...

RE: Exchange 2000 - unable to mount mail stores
If you moved mailboxes from your 5.5 to 2000, then you probably lost your single instance of all the attachments.. that could be a reason for your increase in DB size. Also during mailbox moves, a lot of log files are created, I turned on circular logging during the mailbox move process so it wouldn't create so many log files. Then turned circular logging off after I was done. As for not being able to mount your store.. There can be 100 reasons, check all the event errors and see if any of them point you in the right direction.

Forest and domain prep
Does anyone know if there is a formula to calculate the amount of time it will take to do a forest prep and domain prep for a Exchange 2000 migration? Or can someone give me some numbers on how long it took you to do it when you did the migration?

RE: Forest and domain prep
Thanks Kim, We created a test lab environment to try out many different scenarios. One thing we really couldn't judge was how long forest prep would take because during some of our tests, the time ranged from 30 minutes to 2 hours for no apparent reason. So I was afraid that it could take all weekend on the production servers. Also if anyone knows... I am going to create a native mode child domain so the delegations, distribution lists, etc will come across properly during the in place upgrade. Does this sound like a valid method? We tested out so many different ways to minimize the impact on the end user and we finally had to break down and do the following method: 1. Offline backup of current Exchange 5.5 (currently it's a NT4 BDC Cluster) 2. Dump Public Folder permission dump with PFADMIN. 3. Shut down current Exchange 5.5 (fall back if everything fails) 4. Restore database onto a new Win2k (non DC), Exch 5.5 staging server and bring it up 5. Create Native Mode child domain (so DL's and delegations can have a place to be stored. TechNet says that these will be lost if there isn't a native mode domain available) 6. Do an in place upgrade of 5.5 to Exch 2000 (this is what everyone is nervous about) 7. Cross our fingers and toes and bring up the server 8. If everything works, we will build a Win2k, Exch 2k cluster server on the SAN and join it to the current Exchange Site. 9. Migrate users to the new Cluster server and shut down the staging server. 10. Move Public Folders and import the PFADMIN dump of permissions. 11. If things fail during any of these steps, we will just plug the old NT4 Cluster back in and users will get their email access back. Since the site will remain the same, we won't have to visit the users desktops, which is a big advantage. Anyone have any recommendations on this plan? Maybe something I'm missing or some steps I can skip? Thanks a lot for your help and hope everyone is having a good Friday.
