exchange discovery
hello iam working on a project where i need to discover all the exchange servers(both 2000 and 5.5) in the whole network. i tried out this by querying to MX records on DNS but this is not enough bcoz MX records give only the server names listed. can anyone guide me the way where i can find all the servers on the network like broadcasting a RPC call on to the network for some services advertised by the exchange servers regards raghava _ 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: exchange discovery
I would just look in Exchange manager, or at the services on the servers, maybe look at the network documentation, best bet would be to ask one of the network admins. If you dont have admin rights on the network, what project would require you to know of all the Exchange servers? I try to avoid teaching how to Hack.

RE: exchange discovery
Well you have some Exchange 2000 servers, so you have an Active Directory. All Exchange servers can be found in an OU with the same name in Active Directory. You can view this manually using MMC. If you require this information to be retrieved programatically, check the Resource Kit (can't exactly help you here). Milton is right, without administrative rights, you mightn't get very far ... -Original Message- From: Darisi, Raghava [SMTP:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, January 24, 2002 3:48 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: exchange discovery sorry iam not a hacker. see the scenario is like this, iam designing a tool which first gets all the servers running exchange on the networkput them in a combo box rest of what is not relevant to discuss.ok thaks for ur help raghava -Original Message- From: Milton R Dogg [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, January 24, 2002 10:09 AM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: exchange discovery I would just look in Exchange manager, or at the services on the servers, maybe look at the network documentation, best bet would be to ask one of the network admins.

Re: exchange discovery
The easiest way would be to use a call to the directory to get this list of all sites and all servers in those sites. This does assume, however, that there is only one organization rather than the possibility of many that are not officially known. There is a similar call to 2K but it goes to the AD instead. It's documented in MSDN. - Original Message - From: Darisi, Raghava [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Exchange Discussions [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, January 23, 2002 6:18 AM Subject: exchange discovery hello iam working on a project where i need to discover all the exchange servers(both 2000 and 5.5) in the whole network. i tried out this by querying to MX records on DNS but this is not enough bcoz MX records give only the server names listed. can anyone guide me the way where i can find all the servers on the network like broadcasting a RPC call on to the network for some services advertised by the exchange servers regards raghava _ 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] _ 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]
