It looks like they changed it to per user for Exchange 2000, but that may or may not apply to volume licensing. So - you need a Win2K/NT4.0 CAL per user or per workstation (per server or per seat mode), then you need an Exchange 5.5 CAL per workstation (including home machines if they use OWA to authenticate). There was some academic volume licensing in 5.5 where they licensed Exchange per user instead of per workstation. Your best bet is to check out the license agreement your purchased under.

RE: Clustering Exchange
Sorry for the laxity in answering. We run 5 Marathons with roughly 800 mailboxes per. This is w/ 1 gig ram each w/ double 700 processors. Some more, some less. Two others server as Public Folder and relay servers. This is NT4 w/ XCH 5.5. SP3 plus a few post SP3 hotfixes. We also have Trend AV and Veritas Backups on these boxes and that is all. There is NO time between failovers as in reality, Marathon runs like a mirrored-duplex on steroids, if you will. There are also some techniques that have been developed that allows you to shut down 1/2 of the server while you run utilities or what have you on one copy of the IS while the absolute copy of the original is left intact. If what you are doing on the live array fails, you can over-write it over from the stored IS on the side that is shut down. If on the otherhand, whatever you are doing on the active side is successful, you can bring up the second side you were using as a backup of sorts, and let it over-write it. But during normal operation, the Marathon writes simintaneously to both at once. It sees itself as one server, but in reality, it is 2 CEs (I/O) and 2 IOPs (arrays). Our experiences have been good, but know this: XCH is a resource hog, Marathon is as well. You have to run powerfull boxes so that both are confortable or else you will get hammered. We are going over to NT2000/XCH2000 this year's end and will reduce our email servers down to 4, all Marathon. Any issue we have had with Marathons, and these have been minor, have been handled promptly by their support. And as you mentioned, it is expensive. My feeling, from 1000-1200 mailboxes max on a 2 gig ram machine, with 2 times 1 gig mhz processors, 36 gig raid 1 for log files and 90 gig raid 5 for IS, you'll be hard put to find a better configuration.

I have two main complaints about Windows Clustering one, the length of time it takes to dismount and remount the store between nodes is likely to cause time outs with Outlook so effecting the user. Secondly, MS clustering only protects the OS, if you get a corruption of the IS then clustering will not help you. In my experience a clustered solution can just introduce more problems and be more complex to administer then it gives in return.

RE: OWA usage
This is my major complaint is that I have people who travel and they like going into a local library of internet café and getting their emails, fax, and voice mails via the net. When my boss was in Europe last year he must have used 8 different machines. The way I got around it is that I only give a CAL to a machine while it is in use. Once it is no longer in use and not located on a laptop or on site for 24 hours the CAL is revoked. At least that is what is says in my exchange procedure manual and DR plan. Do not quote me and I am not a lawyer but a senior MS local office person told me that what I am doing is within the scope of the CAL.

RE: Is there any anti-signature software? (icm-computer)
Title: Is there any anti-signature software? (icm-computer) 1. Now I am thinking is there any anti - signature software or procedure? You know like anti-virus with a specific type of file filtering? Sounds like an untapped market. There was a little Outlook client add on called 'Clipper' at one point. It was good for removing text within a message, typically requiring a start and stop. Yahoo used to append an ad at the end after a line '---'. Clipper could be assigned to delete the line and following. It disappeared about a year ago. At the server level, I don't think there is a feasible application if for no reason but the diversity of disclaimers. Why, you'd need the drewski plug-in just to strip those speeches he appends to his posts [1]. 2. If I do not want him to get my emails getting to the exchange list - how would I stop that (besides not sending emails)? You mean exempt him from your posts to the forum?

It's almost a year since I used it, but at that point, it was still riddled with bugs and unbelievably slow. However, at least it moved the mailboxes across at least mainly intact and at least most of the time, which the other products didn't seem capable of. If I was put in a similar position again, the first thing I'd do is quit. Seriously. However, if you don't want to do that, I would very seriously recommend that you make no attempt to migrate user data. It just isn't worth the time and money and hassle, not just to you, but also to your users. Leave their Exchange data where it is, leave then with read access to it for reference, and start fresh with empty Notes mailboxes.

Lastly, his use of rules and that of someone I worked with last week reinforces to me - my and other exchange admin lack of Outlook knowledge. More questions on the use of outlook should be added to exchange certification process. Beyond the basics, I have no ideal how notes work or even why I would use them. 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 List Charter and FAQ at:http://www.sunbelt-software.com/exchange_list_charter.htm List Charter and FAQ at: http://www.sunbelt-software.com/exchange_list_charter.htm

RE: Migration from lotus notes
Title: RE: Migration from lotus notes Martin, Thanks for your reply! Quitting was the first thing that ran through my mind however I simply can't afford it with current market situation. Yeah, the mortgage company doesn't like it when you can't make payments for 2-3 months, while you hunt around for a better employer (always took me at LEAST 6 weeks to get a position), who doesn't mind that you up and quit over a difference in corporate purchasing policy. And can't collect unemployment compensation, since you voluntarily quit. etc. The theory is nice; reality is a bit more complex.

Outlook/ExchServ 2000 issue
Hi, Hopefully someone on here can end my hell and tell me how to solve the following. I am not even 100% convinced it is Exchange but not 100% sure it isnt!! We recently upgraded our Exchange Server to Outlook 2000 from 5.5. All went remarkably well, surprisingly enough ;-). In conjunction we use various forms of Outlook, although the PCs concerned use Outlook 2000. The only problem we have encountered is the following :- Our Chief Exec, gives permission to his P.A. to see, add, edit view his Calendar within outlook. It worked before upgrade. After upgrade it didnt, so deleted permissions and renewed them. She then managed to get into Calendar so all seemed well. That was until she discovered she wasnt seeing all appointments in the calendar. I also have permission and having renewed the permissions from the Chief Execs outlook I CAN see all the appointments. I guessed it may have something to do with permissions server side as I have Admin permissions and she doesnt. So I gave permissions to look at the calendar to my colleague who has the exact same permissions as myself He too gets the same problem as the P.A., as in he only sees some of the appointments within his Calendar. Next guess was the individual PCs involved.So got them to log into the PC I use and try it on that. Unfortunately this showed same problem they both could only see some of the appointments (always the exact same ones) as they did on own PCs. Just to make it even more complicated when my colleague AND the P.A look at his calendar in Active appointments they can see ALL appointments. In every other view They can only see some of the appointments. That to my mind nullifys the thought that it is down to permissions. But, hey, who knows. I have checked the view definitions within Outlook and all seems well. Moreover, I still use the default Outlook settings for views, and therefore when they use my PC, they are using the same settings. Any thoughts would be appreciated.

Go to Tools, Services and click on the delivery tab. Do you have Personal Folders or Mailbox - Lastname, Firstname on the Deliver New mail to the following location drop down menu? It seems that you have Personal Folders since your manager can't find his email. You should probably look at using the other delivery method since your mail stays on the server. Think of backup issues etc...You might want to look at offline folders for remote users. For now, what you will have to do is copy the outlook.pst file to the manager's laptop and have him to an import. Rodney Li This message is in MIME format.
