RE: Ok, ok, I give
Steve Why do you need to use etrn at all? - Your MX records should be primary - your firewall then secondary your ISP - if your primary is not there then it will go to secondary who will keep trying primary by itself until the messages expire. There is only the need for ETRN if you need the messages delivered immediately once the link is back, otherwise they will deliver on their own. Hope this is helpful Cheers Simon -Original Message- From: Clark, Steve [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: 25 October 2001 05:21 To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: Ok, ok, I give Server is online all the time, DSL is sketchy. The primary MX is set to my firewall. However, if the DSL service is down or I reboot the router, mail will not be delivered. In the past, I had the ISP deliver the mail to my primary MX when it is avail. If it is not avail, it is delivered to the second record in the MX record - my ISP. In turn, I pull the mail using the POP connector. This only happens in rare occasions but it provides for failover if the circuit is dead.

HTML outlook 2000 outbind printingproblems
Hello, We have problems printing e-mails in HTML format under Outlook 2000 on a HP4100DTN with a Jetdirect 610N. The e-mail will be send to the printer. In the printerwindow you can see the e-mail displayed as Outbind://XXX Where the X is a long row of numbers and letters. This thing will then block the printer until you manualy deleted the job. Even deleting the job takes 5 min. I looked around on the internet and found the following : Problem with Outlook 2000 printing to HP8150N Printers http://www.swynk.com/friends/hobbs/ Here is a tidbit that will save you hours of frustration and keep you blood pressure down. According to HP there is an Official Problem with Outlook HTML 2000 printing to the 8150N Printers http://www.hp.com/cposupport/printers/support_doc/bpl10149.html http://www.hp.com/cposupport/printers/support_doc/bpl10149.html This effects the 8150s with the J4169A Built in JetDirect cards. There is a OCR Firmware update from HP.

Can somebody help ?? What this is about ?? Are there other people who had the same problems ?? We found a work around, but its annoying to do it all the time : You open the HTML email under forward and then you print. You don't have to forward it really, you can close the forward after printing. Thanks in advance for any help.

RE: Remote connectivity problem Using the Outlook client.
It was my understanding that that was not enough. They must also log into the machine itself with the network credentials -- even if they let it time out as start up. There's a Q article about this somewhere -Michèle Immigration site: http://LadySun1969.tripod.com Our new 2001 Miata: http://members.cardomain.com/bpituley Tiggercam: http://www.tiggercam.co.uk - I can bend minds with my spoon. - -Original Message- From: Robin Lawrie [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, October 25, 2001 3:30 AM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: Remote connectivity problem Using the Outlook client. Are the users home machines that they're logging in from on the domain or are they standalone machines? If they are on the domain, are the usernames and passwords that they log onto the machine with the same as their network username and password? If not, or if the machines are not on the domain, then it could be that when Outlook starts and tries to connect to the Exchange server, it is passing the credentials of the locally logged on user to Exchange. Exchange doesn't recognise these users and so doesn't allow a connection. What you need to do in Outlook is define what network logon credentials to use. In Outlook on the users home PC's, select Tools, Services. Select Microsoft Exchange Server, then click Properties and select the Advanced Tab. Where you get the drop down box for Network Logon Credentials, select None and ok everything. Now, when you start up Outlook, you will be prompted for your username, password and domain. Enter your network details and you should get in.

Are the users home machines that they're logging in from on the domain or are they standalone machines? If they are on the domain, are the usernames and passwords that they log onto the machine with the same as their network username and password? If not, or if the machines are not on the domain, then it could be that when Outlook starts and tries to connect to the Exchange server, it is passing the credentials of the locally logged on user to Exchange. Exchange doesn't recognise these users and so doesn't allow a connection. What you need to do in Outlook is define what network logon credentials to use. In Outlook on the users home PC's, select Tools, Services. Select Microsoft Exchange Server, then click Properties and select the Advanced Tab. Where you get the drop down box for Network Logon Credentials, select None and ok everything. Now, when you start up Outlook, you will be prompted for your username, password and domain.

RE: Is there another way of clearing Exch Transaction logs ?
Hi Robin, Committed transactions in the transaction log file are copied to the database when one of the following occurs: * The checkpoint falls too far behind in a previous log file. If the number of committed transactions in the log files reaches a certain threshold, ESE will flush these changes to disk. * The number of free pages in memory becomes too low, possibly affecting system performance. In this case, committed transactions in memory are flushed to disk to free up pages in memory for system use. * Another service is requesting additional memory and ESE needs to free up some of the memory it is currently using. ESE flushes pages from memory to the database and then updates the checkpoint file. * The database service is shutting down. In this case, all updated pages in memory are copied to the database file. Bear in mind that pages are not copied from memory in any particular order and may not all be copied at the same time. The random order in which the pages are copied back to disk means that if there is a system crash while pages are being written to disk, the database file may have only portions of a committed transaction updated in the actual file. In this event, when the Store.exe process is started, the transaction will be replayed from the transaction log files and the database will be updated completely. My question is - why can you not do an online Backup? What reasons are there for not doing one? Are they failing for some reason? If possible, its nice to get the Backup Software to commit the logs to the DB :) Simon Weaver NT Domain Administrator Ext. 5544 Tel: 02392-705544 (Direct Dial) [EMAIL PROTECTED] -Original Message- From: Robin Lawrie [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: 25 October 2001 01:34:PM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: Is there another way of clearing Exch Transaction logs ?

RE: Message deleted in one mail box but not the other - weird occurre nce
The message that your having trouble with has been written using a custom form. When you send an email, your using a form. The form is the message form. Outlook, (all versions I think), gives you the ability to design your own forms and to use them instead of or as an alternative to the built in forms. For other users to be able to use a custom form though, it needs to be installed on the recipients machine. In your case, your don't have that form hence you cannot view the content. You should try to speak to the recipient to see if they can send the message as a normal email using the built-in forms. Don't know why you can't delete the message though although if you can't see it in the questions mailbox then maybe it has been deleted ;-) Robin. -Original Message- From: Ellery July [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: 25 October 2001 14:17 To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: Message deleted in one mail box but not the other - weird occurre nce I got this message from a friend.

RE: Learning material
Stay on the list. Watch what your admins are doing. Second guess them (not to their face) with questions to this list. Lots of smart people here and there are usually a couple of ways to solve problem. When you see a problem they are having put it to the list and then see what they come up with. We (people on the list) are always right. Go to http://www.win2000mag.com/ and read the stuff on exchange. It is usually a quick read 2-4 pages but informative. About 50% of the stuff in there either starts on this list or gets discussed on this list - Antivirus API, Instant Messaging to name a couple. Go to Microsoft online seminars. Listen to all the exchange stuff which interests you. There are hours of useless stuff but also hours of good stuff. Lastly, see if they can give you more small stuff to control like making sure the exchange antivirus is updated and working or assisting with restore/disaster training. I tried to give you the free stuff obviously there are books, classes, and setting up you own exchange system at home. ellery july Technical Lead Northwest Area Foundation 332 Minnesota e-1201 St. Paul, MN 55101 email - [EMAIL PROTECTED] phone - 651-225-3895 fax - 651-225-7695 -Original Message- From: Jolley Lee @Consult [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, October 25, 2001 4:58 AM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: Learning material I am new to this list and don't get to work with Exchange except for the clients.

You have probably already created the accounts for NT/2K so that's half the battle. If the users already use Outlook, then they are half way there. You will have to make some changes on the user's profiles such as delivery to their Exchange mailbox instead of the personal folder they have been using. the way users are though, I would let them keep their personal folders for referencing old mail and start them fresh with new exchange mailboxes. Just my experience and opinion. Hope it helps you.

The sound of toilets flushing
I've been diligently working building an Exchange recovery server with the same site and org name as my production server. This server is a member of my domain, named differently from my production Exchange box and has NT and Exchange 5.5 on it at this point. Just found out from AaaarghServeIT that their software will only restore the Info store to a server named exactly the same as the one it was backed up from. Their solution is to REMOVE my production server from the network, build and name my recovery server the same as my production box, add it to my network, restore and recover as necessary, remove that from my network then add the production box back in. As Don Ely once stated, I now have sparks shooting out of my eyes. Is it possible to use NT backup over the network to back up the info store from the production server then restore it over the network to a recovery server of a different name?

Not necessarily. I use ARGGHHHserve 6.61 and I was able to restore to a server w/different name. Admittedly, I didn't restore the DIR, but you can restore the others. You should restore the PUB and PRIV together, and I had to muck around and run some of the utilities, but eventually got the store restarted and was able to get into a mailbox.

At present I am running Backup Exec with differential backups and so have turned off Circular logging. This has also been suggested in some of the reading I have done on exchange. As a result, more log files are being written in the mdbdata directories. Ideally, I would like to move these and all other logging files to the d: drive and I would like to know, should this be done only when there are no users on the system, will this improve or adversly affect the operation of the exchange server and will Backup Exec have a problem backing up the exchange mailboxes if these files are moved in the middle of the day. An error showed up on Bup Exec yesterday that it could not backup the Information stores because the log files had been moved or deleted after I tried to move a users mailbox and import it on to the Exchange server. This filled up the c: drive (he had 2000 messages) with loging files in mdbdata and shut down the Exchange services. So I moved the log files to the d: drive temporarily to get exchange running. If I move them back c:\ will fill up again and down the service. Also, How can I find out how big the information store is for a particular user? What a mess! Thanks.

RE: Relay
Another interesting thing. If I do an NSLookup (set type=mx) on their email domain it returns an IP address for the mail exchanger. If I do this on any other domain it gives me an FQDN and then gives the IP of the FQDN later on in the information returned. I tried to do a reverse lookup on their IP and it does not resolve. They can send to us and I can send to them from my Hotmail account. Would this be any reason that I can not send to them from my Exchange server?

At present I am running Backup Exec with differential backups and so have turned off Circular logging. This has also been suggested in some of the reading I have done on exchange. As a result, more log files are being written in the mdbdata directories. Ideally, I would like to move these and all other logging files to the d: drive and I would like to know, should this be done only when there are no users on the system, will this improve or adversly affect the operation of the exchange server and will Backup Exec have a problem backing up the exchange mailboxes if these files are moved in the middle of the day. An error showed up on Bup Exec yesterday that it could not backup the Information stores because the log files had been moved or deleted after I tried to move a users mailbox and import it on to the Exchange server. This filled up the c: drive (he had 2000 messages) with loging files in mdbdata and shut down the Exchange services. So I moved the log files to the d: drive temporarily to get exchange running. If I move them back c:\ will fill up again and down the service. Also, How can I find out how big the information store is for a particular user? What a mess! Thanks.
