RE: Greg's Utterly Fascinating Views on Ethics
Greg, please crawl back under your rock and die now. We REALLY REALLY REALLY do not care about your position on this or ANY other issue anymore. You have stated it 50 times now so PLEASE move on! This was amusing at first, but this silly ass thread was finally starting to die and now you go and start it again with this bloody drivel. JUST STOP POSTING IT HERE! That's all any of us want. This is the Exchange Admin List. Not the IT Ethics list. Go back to your rock, create the IT Ethics list, and then post whatever the hell you like THERE! I might even be inclined to subscribe and post my thoughts on the matter. YOUR POST DOES NOT BELONG ON THIS LIST!

They are so fascinated that every time I post something to this list, they bring it up. In the interests of trying to move past this, you can get your fix of my crazed views on ethics in the form of a free monthly newsletter, The IT Ethics Newsletter. Details can be found at http://www.infonition.com/ethics I have not yet covered the Conflict of Interest topic but I'm sure that it will come up eventually. Until then, here is how I see the two sides. Greg: Accepting direct gifts from third parties, especially significant gifts such as large dollar items and titles, presents a real or perceived conflict of interest between an IT professional's client (either the customer or company that he or she works for) and that third party. This is why companies have limits on the type and dollar amount of gifts that employees can accept from third parties. Because MVP is primarily a title and titles are priceless, there are obvious grounds for a potential conflict of interest. And it does not matter if the conflict of interest is real or perceived. The whole point of ethics and conflict of interest rules is to help keep people from getting into ethical trouble and to remove even the specter or impropriety. The Other Side: The MVP title is not unethical. In fact, it does not matter what you do or who you accept gifts from or what the type or dollar amount of those gifts, it will never, ever constitute a conflict of interest. Furthermore, there is really no such thing as a conflict of interest. This whole conflict of interest nonsense is, in fact, an evil plot propagated by the secretive Illuminati. Obviously, the Illuminati have corrupted Greg's brain and the brains of all of the corporations that have rules against accepting gifts. Don't become another victim! Even if God himself comes down and points out that something is obviously a potential conflict of interest, argue with God because the Illuminati have obviously gotten to him. _ 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] _ 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]

In the case of the 9.1 install (no hot fixes needed), I actually migrated the two mailboxes on the server back to the 5.5 server, uninstalled Exchange 2003 and formatted the box before trying again with a new server name. I then installed Exchange 2003 on it, created a test mailbox and sent it a few messages, and then installed BE 9.1 on the new server and rebooted. Even with a clean install on the server it cannot see the stores. The reinstall attempt with BE 9.1 on the exchange server its self was my project yesterday trying to debug it.

RE: 5.5 and OSX - Mac Outlook connectivity
Those options all work, however if you system has gone X native and Outlook is the only holdup, ditching it is for the best. For best results, turn IMAP on on the Exchange server and then use either Entourage or the build in Mail.app to access it. I have seen weird things happening with 10.3's Mail.app and outr Exchange 5.5 server so I moved our users to Entourage and it works without a hitch.

Mail related Windows 2003 DNS question.
We run split brained DNS here. We have Windows 2000 server for our public zones and as we just upgraded, Windows 2003 DNS for internal zones. Our internal DNS is configured (I believe correctly) to do root lookups for all zones except for the ones that we control. If appears to do the fine for everything except MX records. This is obviously keeping mail from flowing outbound. To get mail flowing again, I have pointed the internal DNS to forward to our external public DNS servers to do the same root lookups. This works flawlessly. As we will soon be upgrading our public server to Windows 2003, can anyone offer suggestions to get the new DNS servers doing root lookups on their own? All the docs that I have seen and a TechNet search lead me to believe that they are setup correctly to do the root lookups (and DO in fact do them for web browsing).

RE: Exchange 2003 RBL
I have to agree to both points. That's why we setup a cheep Xwall box in front of our Exchange servers. We have it using several lists and some custom filters to tag spam before delivering it to exchange. Our users can then use the tags to create server side filters for their mailboxes as THEY wish. While I would love to not have the spam traffic hit my network at all, the only effective way to do that is with the blacklists in blocking mode. Doing that is just not acceptable in a business environment. On the other hand, my Exchange 2003 lab server that receives my personal mail has those RBLs turned on in full blocking mode. My main personal account was getting about 200+ spams a day and maybe 5-10 real mails before I turned on the RBL blocking in Exchange 2003, since then it has cut it to maybe 10 spams still making it to my box, and frankly if some real mail bounces, my friends and family know how to get me another way. --- Miles Holt, MCP Network Engineer Summit Marketing [EMAIL PROTECTED] 770-303-0426 --- Show me a completely smooth operation and I'll show you someone who's covering mistakes.

Opnion on Server Size
I have 3 field offices with about 80 users each, that currently have HP E60 servers deployed running Exchange 5.5 with no complaints. Those servers are P3 500 single cpu's, with 512mb ram, and 4 18.2GB 7200rpm disks running raid 5. Currently we don't have any speed issues. To simplify our coming upgrade process to Exchange 2003, I am considering reconfiguring the following server spec for each office, and shipping them to the offices, and them moving the mailboxes to the new servers. I am looking to buy the following spec: Dell PowerEdge 400SC, P4 2.8ghz with 512mb ram. For storage, I am going to install an SATA raid controller for mirroring and 2, 120gb SATA disks. I think this spec should do quite nicely for my users at these sites, my only doubts are that there might not be enough disk performance to keep them happy. Thoughts?

What is the Current thinking on OOF to the Internet?
Looks like it is that time of the year again, strong pressure from the top has arrived trying to mandate the use of the Out of Office and auto response to the Internet. Even though we have helped cause mailing list storms in the past when it was forced on for a sales convention (thus leading to it's current banishment) once again users want it enabled.

RE: Looking for advice/idea on fixing a non ideal Exchange 5.5 Or g
Cool, thanks for your insights Ed. The more I was looking at it yesterday after I asked the question, the more I was thinking the same thing. I can see no reason for us to have more than one admin group unless we go an buy another company or four, and that sure doesn't look to be in the cards. I have one other migration question. The admins before me, created a recipient container for each of our sites users. That works, but is messy as you can move the users from RC to RC as needed (they didn't know how to build address book views). I have put off fixing this as I don't really have the time to spend exmerging out mailboxes to pst's and then recreating them. Is this something I should try and fix (ie: move all users into one RC) or just migrate in place and then use better tools/features post migration to make the changes? --- Miles Holt Network Engineer Summit Marketing [EMAIL PROTECTED] 770-303-0426 --- -Original Message- From: Ed Crowley [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, April 03, 2003 12:32 AM To: Exchange Discussions 1.

RE: Can anyone recomend a good networking list
On a inter-related note, how about a good list for VoIP. We are looking to replace our PBX this year and are looking at gear from Cisco at the moment. I'm trying to get a better idea of their products pro's and con's vs. Avaya and get a great network upgrade in the process.

Personally, I'd do Foundry or Cisco. Since my current employer has a long relationship with Cisco, that's what we're using. -- Roger D.

Some might recommend Enterasys (http://www.enterasys.com) as well (used to be Cabletron) as well. They haven't, IMO, kept up with the others in technology. I'd completely concur, however, that the 3Com gear should go. We ditched ours a year and a half ago (in favor of Cisco) and haven't looked back. -- Roger D.

There is 1 main distribution point where the servers and routers are. When I took over a year ago the entire campus was 3Com. A 3Com layer3 switch for routing and 3Com layer 2 switches and hubs for distribution. I added a low cost 3Com layer3 switch to separate the admin network from the residential network but I am kind of unhappy with it. I am looking for a good modular layer 3 4 switch with GB copper and 100BaseFX fiber capability. So far I have spec'd out the HP Procurve 5300 series and as soon as I have 10 or 12 hours to figure out all the parts, I want to look into Cisco's offerings. I think Cisco will be far more expensive than I can afford though. I was wondering if anyone can share experience with HP's gear and their service. I am also hoping that I can get some recommendations on other manufacturers who have this type of gear. The only ones I know of in this area are 3Com, HP and Cisco but I know there must be others.
