3 9gb 
drives should do just fine, same disk space AND fault tolerance. If you chose to 
use software level raid you would lose alot of proc. time to it. Hardware level 
RAID 5 with todays RAID controllers you should not see any loose in 
performance.

I 
don't think Microsoft has anything current on hardware configuration, as they're 
not a hardware vendor. On the other hand, Compaq is, and they happen to 
have a guy named Tony Redmond (aka, God.) Tony is... Well, if you 
don't know who Tony is, run, do not walk, to Amazon and get his book on Exchange 
2000. Then search through Windows 2000 magazine for his past 
articles.

At any 
rate, the current Windows 2000 web site has a new article by 
Tony, http://www.win2000mag.com/articles/index.cfm?articleid=20367.The 
article is called: 3 Basics of Exchange Server Performance: Hardware, design, 
and operation give you a solid foundation

I 
think you'll find your concerns adequately addressed. On issues of how to 
actually make Exchange work in the real world, Tony is the 
authority.

RE: Open Relay Link (Content of link)

Title: RE: Open Relay Link (Content of link)

Don't have the link, but here is the content:

January 2000 | Joseph Neubauer | Feature | InstantDoc #7696
Is Your Exchange Server Relay-Secure?
In August 1999, Microsoft released an Exchange Server 5.5, post-Service Pack 2 (SP2) hotfix to address a specific Exchange mail-relaying vulnerability. This fix plugged a security hole that let the Internet Mail Service (IMS) relay encapsulated SMTP messages, even if you'd configured the server to prevent relaying.

Many companies, however, haven't secured their servers. In a quick test of 20 sites, I found that between 60 and 70 percent of them either hadn't applied this security patch or hadn't configured their servers to block relays in the manner that the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) Request for Comments (RFC) 2505 suggests.

If you haven't completely secured your server against relaying, an outsider can use your server to deliver email that appears to have originated from your server and possibly from one of your mail accounts. In the United States and other countries, people periodically debate whether systems' owners are liable if someone uses their system as a relay. The crux of the debate is whether an owner knew about the problem but chose to do nothing about it. Aside from concern about owners' liability, relaying is also a form of Denial of Service (DoS) attack because it takes system resources away from legitimate operations. Relaying is also bad for your company's business because it can generate ill will among your customers.

Let's look at some ways to protect your system against relaying. The sidebar Protect Your Server Against Encapsulated SMTP Address Vulnerability discusses the fix for a specific type of relaying problem.

RFC 2505
In February 1999, the IETF released RFC 2505, Anti-Spam Recommendations for SMTP MTAs. This RFC explains the problems associated with unsolicited commercial email (UCE, or spam) and specifies the functionality that an SMTP Message Transfer Agent (MTA) needs to reduce UCE's effects. RFC 2505 makes 13 recommendations, two of which are most closely related to relaying:

· A system must be able to restrict unauthorized use as a mail relay.
· A system must be able to configure and provide different return codes for different rules (e.g., 451 Temp Fail vs. 550 Fatal Error). Specific return codes let you diagnose configuration problems that are blocking legitimate mail delivery.

If you're using Exchange Server 5.5, you have the tools to implement these recommendations and prevent the unauthorized use of your resources. To maximize your ability to use these capabilities and configure your system's antirelay defenses, you need to be running SP2 or later and the encapsulated relaying hotfix. An alternative to installing the hotfix is to install SP3, which includes the hotfix. In Exchange Server 5.5 before SP2, you could block relaying only by manually editing the Registry.

As Screen 1 shows, two options on the Routing tab of the Internet Mail Service Properties sheet-Do not reroute incoming SMTP mail and Reroute incoming SMTP mail (required for POP3/IMAP4 support)-control mail relaying. The obvious choice seems to be Do not reroute incoming SMTP mail, but this option has several drawbacks, including that it isn't as secure as it might seem. Selecting this option prevents the IMS from relaying messages, but the IMS still accepts the messages and then generates a nondelivery report (NDR) that specifies that the recipient's address doesn't exist on the system. This configuration doesn't meet the second RFC recommendation because it results in an error code that indicates success and generates an incorrect delivery failure report.

If your server is running in the Do not reroute incoming SMTP mail configuration and you have an email account elsewhere on the Internet, you can confirm the flaws in the process I describe above by configuring a POP3 mail client to use your Exchange server as its SMTP host. For example, if you're using Outlook (i.e., a POP3 mail client) and your external address is [EMAIL PROTECTED], on the General tab of Outlook's Internet E-Mail Properties sheet, set the email and reply addresses to [EMAIL PROTECTED] On the Servers tab, set the Outgoing Server to the IP address or domain name of your Exchange server. Compose a message, and try to send it to a friend's address. Exchange will accept the message, but you'll receive an NDR at your external address.

The IMS Help screen states that this behavior is by design, but this feature has two major drawbacks. First, this configuration could allow your system to be the origin of reverse UCE or even a mail flood. Second, the configuration places an unnecessary processing burden on your system.

Reverse UCE. If you set your system to Do not reroute incoming SMTP mail, malicious users can use your system as a launching point to flood another computer system with SMTP messages. Because the messages

What I'm trying to do is the following.

I have a BAD PRIV database running with a lot of WARNING errors. I also have
a GOOD PRIV database running offline. I'll unplug the BAD server and plug
the GOOD server so I'll get my mail going. Then I'll EXMERGE THE BAD PRIV to
pst files extracting the difference between the two and import them back
to the GOOD PRIV.

Can I do this from a central place or I have to go and fix every single
client around?

Thanks,

Title: Inbox with the wrong name





Ok here is one for you guy's


Exchange 5.5 sp4
NT 4.0 sp6a
outlook 98


One of my users (not one of the worst) has managed to rename his inbox on the exchange client.
It now says Group Meeting Schedule something he did for a different folder.


Call me a duce and flame me all you want for being stupid but I for the life of me I can't figure out how to change the name on it.

When I open up the properties and try there it goes ping and doesn't do anything as if I didn't have permissions.
Even Logged on as the exchange service account and couldn't do anything.

  Servers and disks are too fast these days, NTFS for all! 
  
  
  And actually, in the "old" days it was the logs drive that you 
  wanted to be FAT. ;o)

FAT for System, NTFS for LOG and

Okay,
Here is how the God's of Exchange trained 
me @ Marriott International. Mirror your System and Log drives, RAID 
5 for your Data. This is the fastest and most 
efficient.

  Thanks for the input- but there are 
  performance/tolerance advantages if you use RAID1 and0 
  for the OS and Transaction logs (?), and RAID 5 for the 
  IS/DS. I am looking for that exact config for my 7 SCSI 
  drives.

3 9gb drives should do just fine, same 
disk space AND fault tolerance. If you chose to use software 
level raid you would lose alot of proc. time to it. Hardware 
level RAID 5 with todays RAID controllers you should not see any 
loose in performance.

  Config
  I 
  need to set up a new Exchange Server and am looking for 
  anything that Microsoft has written about Exchange 5.5: 
  RAID/Performance. I am being asked why I can just buy a 
  single18G SCSI disk instead of multiple disks with 
  mirroring and RAID 5. (Also want to know why (3) 9G 
  Scsi's with RAID 5 isn't good enough for 
  me.)
  
  I 
  know this has been BEAT TO DEATH, but could someone please 
  direct me to anything that MS has written on this subject so 
  that I can print it out? I am in the Disaster Recovery 
  White Paper and am not finding the suggested Config. 
  It's not in my New Riders 5.5 book either.
  
  Thanks in 
  advance.
