RE: Locking down RPC; winexch2k
Unless I'm mistaken, in order to let a front-end server communicate to back-end server servers (exchange and ad), a variety of ports are needed... Including one negotiated port for RPC. Usually this ends up being 1026 on my server, but it's possible to lock it down to one high port and allow that port only through the FW to the internal lan. Yah? Excerpt: If you want the features that require RPCs, such as authentication or implicit logon, but do not want to open the wide range of ports above 1024, you can configure your domain controllers, global catalog servers, and all other back-end servers to use a single known port for all RPC traffic. For more information about how to restrict RPC traffic, see Microsoft Knowledge Base article Q224196, Restricting Active Directory Replication Traffic to a Specific Port (http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=3052ID=224196). My question is, does back-end servers above refer only to exchange servers or all win2k servers on the LAN? -Yanek. -Original Message- From: Andy David [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Posted At: Thursday, September 18, 2003 11:02 Posted To: Exchange Conversation: Locking down RPC; winexch2k Subject: Re: Locking down RPC; winexch2k Why the need to do this? - Original Message - From: Yanek Korff [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Exchange Discussions [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, September 18, 2003 11:00 AM Subject: RE: Locking down RPC; winexch2k In an effort to sound stupid...

Disabling Departed Users
In Exchange 5.5, when a user departed we'd disable their accounts and continue collecting mail for them so their supervisors could look at anything business related. In Exchange 2000, if we disable the account they can no longer receive mail. The event logs say: Disabled user /O=[blah-o]/OU=[blah-ou]/CN=RECIPIENTS/CN=[userid] does not have a master account SID. Please use Active Directory MMC to set an active account as this user's master account. So what's the appropriate procedure for disabling accounts yet allowing the user to continue to receive mail in a 2k domain? Or do I have something screwed up? -Yanek. - This electronic message transmission contains information that may be confidential or privileged.

E-Mail disclaimers; exch2000
Following KB articles:
317680 - Add a Disclaimer to Outgoing SMTP Messages in Visual Basic Script
288756 - SMTP Transport Event OnArrival Does Not Fire For MAPI Messages
I've followed the procedures in the above two articles and can't seem to get
a disclaimer working. If I telnet to my secondary server's port 26
simulate an SMTP conversation the message does get to its destination with
the disclaimer... but no disclaimer under MAPI.
I'm confident Virtual Server 1 is listening on 25 sending to the same
server on port 26. The secondary virtual server is listening on 26
sending to the external mail relay. The SMTP Event sink is registered on
the secondary virtual server.
Did I miss something?

I walk around to everybody's desk and change it for them? Also unacceptable. I load their profile and change it there? Nope, I don't want to do that either.

RE: No more free/busy data?
The answer is because they know a lot more about their calendars than you do! Why would a user want some lowly e-mail admin controlling how much information they show?? Because users generally don't have a clue? Frankly I'm surprised this hasn't come up before. We often have users scheduling meetings months out. And we want to ensure that when users do this, free/busy data for that individual is available. I've found documentation elsewhere about how to change this value for everyone.

RE: modprof utility
I still don't follow. During the installation of Exchange 2000 in the AD domain, I -specify- the org name and site names. Let me go over this step by step and make sure I'm following... Exchange 5.5 is currently installed on a member server in the ABC domain, and I have the following configuration: Org Display Name: ABC Org Directory Name: ABC Site Display Name: BAR Site Directory Name: BAR I can freely change the org and site display names to, say, XYZ and FOO respectively without affecting users or anything else (question 1)? Now I also have a Win2k AD domain called XYZ. I can bring up a Win2k server in the XYZ domain as a member server, install Exchange 2000 and I can tell it that it's the second server in an org and it will make its ORG name XYZ and its Site name FOO? Or do I have to specify a new org of name XYZ and a site of name FOO? (question 2) And if I use this procedure there will be no remnants of either ABC or BAR in AD or Exchange 2k anywhere?

Recommended Hardware; 500 users
At some point we're going to be migrating to Windows/Exchange 2000 and need to ensure we're getting the right hardware. Assuming we'll be getting Dell hardware, might someone offer a suggestion? Specifically, we want to: 1. Provide for Exchange conferencing services to satellite offices Proc/Mem/Disk requirements? 2. Provide Exchange mail service for 500 users Proc/Mem/Disk requirements? The IMC will likely go on its own system with a 10/100 NIC, while the other two will be on a GigE network. We're leaning towards dual Xeon proc for both these systems with 2GB memory. Likely 2x18GB drives for the conferencing server and the same for the mail server... but an external drive array to accommodate storage needs. We'd like to provide 1GB mailbox quotas and 30 day deleted item retention. Comments?

RE: Alternative to UNIX procmail in Exchange
Hey Tom, you're going to feel kind of dumb high-centered on a log in that Ferrari. Sendmail is just as powerful and far more flexible than Exchange - in certain areas. Chaining a Sendmail server in front of an Exchange server is a valid solution, as is Ed's idea. I'm not sure I'd really compare Sendmail Exchange. I'd say Sendmail is an MTA and Exchange is a groupware platform. The original issue was procmail. I'm not familiar with Ed's suggestion: configure mail-enabled users. What we ended up doing for the few that wanted (a) to use procmail or (b) to be able to use mailboxes mounted off a UNIX filesystem was: 1. Create a mailbox for everyone. 2. Create an custom recipient (Internet E-Mail) user@unixmailserver 3. Set mail to be delivered to both mailbox custom recipient The users are then responsible for creating a rule in Outlook which deletes all E-Mails of type message (moves to deleted items, set deleted items to get flushed every night). Messages left in inbox are meeting requests, etc, which must be handled using Outlook. They know they have to go to outlook to do it becasue they receive a text-type meeting request in their unix account. It seems to satisfy the unix folks. But if you've got a huge organization, this may not be administratively practical... -Yanek.

Forwarding Posts from PF
Exchange 5.5 SP4, NT4 SP6a Having read something similar in another thread, I must ask... Mail sent to mailing list (currently using ReddfishListServer) is sent to all recipients specified for that list including PF Solaris server running Mailman for web archives. This works pretty well -- people who are subscribed to the list read the messages when they arrive. Those who are not subscribed read the PF. HOWEVER, those who read the PF and POST to the PF sometimes think that others will see their message... this ends up not being the case as the message is not forwarded to the list. Is there some good way to correct this? ie. Mail to DL - PF, post to PF - DL, without loops. -Yanek. _ 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]
RE: Alternative to UNIX procmail in Exchange
Considering that the Outlook Rules Wizard is merely a shadow of what procmail can do, I suggest setting up a separate sub-domain with its own MX and routing mail there on a per user basis. That system can continue to use Sendmail. Dunno your environment/infrastructure though so it may not work well in your company. -Yanek. -Original Message- From: Samir Arora [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, February 21, 2002 12:58 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: Alternative to UNIX procmail in Exchange Gurus, We have moved our messaging environment from Sendmail to Exchange and lot of unix users believe that they have lost capability of procmail in new environment .

Permissions for Public Folders
I'd like to ensure that mail from external sources can get into a public folder, but users by default can only read the contents. I don't understand the difference between Anonymous and Default permissions -- am I correct in assuming that if I set Anonymous to Contributor and Default to Reviewer it will work as I wish?

Public Folders Mailing Lists
As with many companies, we have a number of users who all subscribe to similar mailing lists. I'd like to bring some of these lists under one umbrella by subscribing public folders to the lists instead of the individual users. This is a reccomended strategy, correct? I seem to remember reading about it on this list a while back. Several questions, however: 1. Where can I get more information about setting this up? 2. If the folders are subscribed, do the users need to subscribe anyway to post to those lists? 3. Is there no way to have a (#) printed next to public folders for new messages? 4.

What's the right way to use eseutil to gain disk space? I'd appreciate any non-flaming advice, pointers, docs, etc. I find the archives non-intuitive -- or maybe I'm looking in the wrong place?

RE: Virtual Domains with the same Users
2. Users are in two DNS domains: Add one more SMTP address to all the mailboxes.You can use a directory export/import to achieve this. That was the approach I took initially, and then discovered I could have just set up the one domain [the new one, presumably] to route to the other domain. in the IMS routing tab. Saves having to muck with users' SMTP addresses. -Yanek.
