RE: Appointments.
OK. I changed the Calendar options Publish setting to 0 months, and indeed, you now can not see what is on the users calendar that you are trying to schedule an appointment with. But, what I'm trying to do is get that calendar blocked out entirely, so it is impossible to even send the person a meeting request. I don't think it can be done.

I'm confused. Are they Making Meetings? That just sends a request for a meeting that is either accepted or denied by the recipient. Are they able to write directly on the calendars? They should not have more than Review rights to each others calendars. If people aren't placing things in their calendars because they are personal (but still happen during work hours) they should learn to use the little private check mark for their calendar items. This then only shows on free/busy that you are NOT AVAILABLE during that period. It gives no other information.

RE: Circular logging?
I know it's a bad idea, but for some reason if we don't backup on the weekends which we usually don't, some of our clients fill up 3-5 gigs of hard disk space. So I had to turn it on in a few places. I don't manage huge (over 250) user bases in exchange for most of our clients, so not sure how important it is for more simple installations.

RE: DCs, Exchange and not recommemnded?
We all know it works .. That's not the question. The question is what paper MCSE+I student is consulting them stating it is a good idea. Especially since he/she is also getting less work out of it by only installing one server and not two. You may really want to re-consider your consultant as not just uninformed but a bad business person that probably wont be around for too much longer :). If I had my choice I would probably put 3 servers in every client we do. Considering even a base server of any importance is 2-3k, and our installation is about 2k, it gets pricey pretty quick and not everyone can afford it. I could always find ms papers to support putting everything on its own server. I would be hard pressed to find one that recommends all-in-one. Oh wait! I could sell SBS 2000 :) List Charter and FAQ at: http://www.sunbelt-software.com/exchange_list_charter.htm

A mail box server will benefit for the ability to have a roll forward recovery. Where you can restore from Back then roll the current logs from the time of back up against the database.

They should not have more than Review rights to each others calendars. If people aren't placing things in their calendars because they are personal (but still happen during work hours) they should learn to use the little private check mark for their calendar items. This then only shows on free/busy that you are NOT AVAILABLE during that period. It gives no other information.

Usually, default IIS install will have a "default website" with Exchange being a virtual under that. You can have the virtual on ssl OR/AND http, and the parent being one or both or either. They are not linked. We have a web site running as the default web site. It is set up using anonymous access and no encryption. Exchange is a virtual folder under it, using Basic Authentication. I've been testing some of the time with SSL required and sometimes not.It will be running on SSLbefore I announce OWA to the world. Server listening on 443 does not necessarily mean that the IIS is doing it. OK In the IIS on the OWA server, is the virtual for exchange pointing into the proper exchsrvr dir on the 55sp4 box? Does it have rights into that dir? The OWA webaccess dir is/should be: c:\exchsrvr\webdata (ymmv). If local, then no share needed on the Ex box. If using a separate IIS server, then you'll have to have the dir shared. I'm pretty sure this is set up correct. The web access directory is right and I am able to accessmy mailbox using http. It seems everything from the OWA server to the Exchangeserver is OK. If you want the ssl, then the owa server MUST be addresses with https. If the "cannot find server" comes up on https but not http, then I would start looking at whether or not the IIS is ssl enabled for the Exchange virtual site. I'vechecked "Require secure channel (SSL)" in the Secure Communications dialog box of the Exchange virtual directory. Is there anything else I'm missing to enable SSL? http://10.x.x.xgets you IIS default site or OWA? Sorry, I was pretty unclear. http://10.x.x.x gets me to the default website. http://10.x.x.x/exchange tells me I must use a secure connection. If I uncheck the "Require secure channel" box, http://10.x.x.x/exchange gets me OWA, and after logging in, I get to the Exchange server. https://10.x.x.x/exchange brings up a dialog box noting an untrusted certificate. This is expected and normal as the certificate is coming from my own Certificate Server (actually, the same OWA box). After I accept the certificate, the next screen is the "Cannot find server or DNS error". If I try a refresh, IE just spins forever. A new browser window will repeat the process.

First Exchange 2000 server in Exchange 5.5 environment (on 2K domain)?
Hello - I have an Exchange 5.5 environment currently, with one Exchange 5.5 server on an NT 4.0 server, and another Exchange 5.5 server on a Windows 2000 Advanced Server. The domain is running in mixed mode with the Windows 2000 Advanced Server as the Domain Controller and the NT 4.0 server as an old NT 4.0 domain Backup Domain Controller. I intend to add my first Exchange 2000 (Enterprise) server to this environment. At first, I want to test it by adding an Exchange 2000 server on to another Windows 2000 Advanced Server, so that I can create a test mailbox on the new Exchange 2000 server, work with it, then migrate real mailboxes to it. What advice would you folks give me as to anything special I need to do to add my first Exchange 2000 Enterprise server to this environment? Or is it as easy as just install the Exchange 2000 Enterprise server on a Windows 2000 Advanced server system, and tell it to join the existing Exchange environment? Many thanks! -Jay List Charter and FAQ at: http://www.sunbelt-software.com/exchange_list_charter.htm

Usually, default IIS install will have a default website with Exchange being a virtual under that. You can have the virtual on ssl OR/AND http, and the parent being one or both or either. They are not linked. We have a web site running as the default web site. It is set up using anonymous access and no encryption. Exchange is a virtual folder under it, using Basic Authentication. I've been testing some of the time with SSL required and sometimes not. It will be running on SSL before I announce OWA to the world. Server listening on 443 does not necessarily mean that the IIS is doing it. OK In the IIS on the OWA server, is the virtual for exchange pointing into the proper exchsrvr dir on the 55sp4 box? Does it have rights into that dir? The OWA webaccess dir is/should be: c:\exchsrvr\webdata (ymmv). If local, then no share needed on the Ex box. If using a separate IIS server, then you'll have to have the dir shared . I'm pretty sure this is set up correct. The web access directory is right and I am able to access my mailbox using http. It seems everything from the OWA server to the Exchange server is OK. If you want the ssl, then the owa server MUST be addresses with https. If the cannot find server comes up on https but not http, then I would start looking at whether or not the IIS is ssl enabled for the Exchange virtual site . I've checked Require secure channel (SSL) in the Secure Communications dialog box of the Exchange virtual directory. Is there anything else I'm missing to enable SSL? http://10.x.x.x http://10.x.x.x gets you IIS default site or OWA? Sorry, I was pretty unclear. http://10.x.x.x gets me to the default website. http://10.x.x.x/exchange tells me I must use a secure connection. If I uncheck the Require secure channel box, http://10.x.x.x/exchange gets me OWA, and after logging in, I get to the Exchange server. https:// https://10.x.x.x/exchange 10.x.x.x/exchange brings up a dialog box noting an untrusted certificate. This is expected and normal as the certificate is coming from my own Certificate Server (actually, the same OWA box). After I accept the certificate, the next screen is the Cannot find server or DNS error. If I try a refresh, IE just spins forever. A new browser window will repeat the process. I've tried a full reinstall of IIS, OWA and Cert Server, but I've got the same problem, so it must be a configuration issue.

Repost: Win2k and NT4.0 Domains Exchanging Mail
I didn't get a response the first time. Thought I might try again... I need to consolidate two separate email domains to a single domain. The configuration is as follows: Domain 1. Company.com NT4.0 Domain Exchange 5.5 SP4 (6 Servers in 6 sites) 1000 users Domain 2. Sales.Company.com W2K Exchange 2000 (Singe Site, Single Server) 100 users The situation is as follows the company.com domain is a large established domain with 1,000 users. There is a plan to convert it to Windows 2000 next year. So upgrading it to 2000 today is not going to happen until the larger Win2K migration occurs and Active Directory is rolled out. Sales.Company.com sprung up as a rogue site without authority from the corporate IT group, but the office has done well, and now politically in the organization has some clout. They setup as Win2K from the get go, and only have about 100 users. The corporate IT group doesn't really want this to happen, but I've been asked to push through the following: 1. everyone in both domains needs a company.com email address 2. A single global address list replicating between both sites 3. Public Folder replication between the two sites 4. We can't put up a domain trust between the two domains (political reasons) How would you do this? I am not extremely familiar with the Active Directory Connector (or even Exchange2K), but it's my understanding it can be setup to talk with exchange 5.5 without setting up a domain trust. Will it also allow the GAL to replicate properly? Last does anyone know a way to replicate the public folders? I've seen some references to ADC sucking on the list, are we about to go down a road we shouldn't. Even if we get it working will this be problematical in the future? I don't want to get stuck with a solution that only works part of the time.

(Yeah) My question is: Is the method described in Q155216 the best way to move an Exchange server? I will be upgrading to Exchange 5.5 Enterprise in this move, however, I want to have the same computer, organization, site name etc. to keep the impact on users to the minimum. Neither the old, nor the new server is a PDC or BDC. After reading this article through several times I believe that this is the way I want to do this, but would like to have that confirmed for you guys and gals on the list.

Yes a month has flown by already. So on the topic of defragmentations, exchange does this nightly because it is awesome. Got that part. Now if I have 2GB of free space after this nightly process takes place, that is all white space that exchange uses before the priv.edb would grow larger? Is this an accurate statement or way off?

Usually, default IIS install will have a "default website" with Exchange being a virtual under that. You can have the virtual on ssl OR/AND http, and the parent being one or both or either. They are not linked. We have a web site running as the default web site. It is set up using anonymous access and no encryption. Exchange is a virtual folder under it, using Basic Authentication. I've been testing some of the time with SSL required and sometimes not. It will be running on SSL before I announce OWA to the world. Server listening on 443 does not necessarily mean that the IIS is doing it. OK In the IIS on the OWA server, is the virtual for exchange pointing into the proper exchsrvr dir on the 55sp4 box? Does it have rights into that dir? The OWA webaccess dir is/should be: c:\exchsrvr\webdata (ymmv). If local, then no share needed on the Ex box. If using a separate IIS server, then you'll have to have the dir shared . I'm pretty sure this is set up correct. The web access directory is right and I am able to access my mailbox using http. It seems everything from the OWA server to the Exchange server is OK. If you want the ssl, then the owa server MUST be addresses with https. If the "cannot find server" comes up on https but not http, then I would start looking at whether or not the IIS is ssl enabled for the Exchange virtual site .

This error occurs when logging on from internal as well as external clients. My clients are win2k and win98 using assorted versions of IE. I do not have friendly IE error messages turned on. Browsing locally on the box fails with the same error. My server is a front-end Exchange 2000 sp2 box that relays incoming/outgoing mail and supports SSL connections to OWA. I am using the IIS lockdown tool. The box is on the inside of a firewall only allowing port 25 and 443 connections to the server. ftp, telnet, etc services are disabled. wwwpub and the proper exchange services appear to be running. There have been no recent changes to the server (this was working last night) The server has been stable. neither event logs or iis logs are being particularly enlightening This error is so general I am having trouble finding anything relevant on Google Web or Groups.

Now if I have 2GB of free space after this nightly process takes place, that is all white space that exchange uses before the priv.edb would grow larger? Is this an accurate statement or way off?

Groupwise Migration and tasks
I've run into a problem during two GW to Exchange migrations. Both migrations were fairly small organizations. Coexistance was not an issue, so we simply ran the GW migration tool. In both instances, things went fairly smooth using the GW Migration tool, however, the tasks didn't seem to come across correctly. In fact, the tasks didn't come across at all.

Usually, default IIS install will have a "default website" with Exchange being a virtual under that. You can have the virtual on ssl OR/AND http, and the parent being one or both or either. They are not linked. We have a web site running as the default web site. It is set up using anonymous access and no encryption. Exchange is a virtual folder under it, using Basic Authentication. I've been testing some of the time with SSL required and sometimes not. It will be running on SSL before I announce OWA to the world. Server listening on 443 does not necessarily mean that the IIS is doing it. OK In the IIS on the OWA server, is the virtual for exchange pointing into the proper exchsrvr dir on the 55sp4 box? Does it have rights into that dir? The OWA webaccess dir is/should be: c:\exchsrvr\webdata (ymmv). If local, then no share needed on the Ex box. If using a separate IIS server, then you'll have to have the dir shared . I'm pretty sure this is set up correct. The web access directory is right and I am able to access my mailbox using http. It seems everything from the OWA server to the Exchange server is OK. If you want the ssl, then the owa server MUST be addresses with https. If the "cannot find server" comes up on https but not http, then I would start looking at whether or not the IIS is ssl enabled for the Exchange virtual site . I've checked "Require secure channel (SSL)" in the Secure Communications dialog box of the Exchange virtual directory. Is there anything else I'm missing to enable SSL? http://10.x.x.x http://10.x.x.x gets you IIS default site or OWA? Sorry, I was pretty unclear. http://10.x.x.x gets me to the default website. http://10.x.x.x/exchange tells me I must use a secure connection. If I uncheck the "Require secure channel" box, http://10.x.x.x/exchange gets me OWA, and after logging in, I get to the Exchange server. https:// https://10.x.x.x/exchange

You may really want to re-consider your consultant as not just uninformed but a bad business person that probably wont be around for too much longer :). If I had my choice I would probably put 3 servers in every client we do. Considering even a base server of any importance is 2-3k, and our installation is about 2k, it gets pricey pretty quick and not everyone can afford it. I could always find ms papers to support putting everything on its own server. I would be hard pressed to find one that recommends all-in-one. Oh wait!
