Ok, I figured out how to view the calendar folder and get to where you were 
talkinga bout ( either ctrl+6 or go/folder list) but I run into one more issue.

We have around 150 people currently on the exchange server and more being 
migrated every day, however when I click add in the permissions tab to add a 
user only about 10 users show up in the global address listany ideas why 
that would be?  Do I have to do something to the accounts to make them show up 
there?

Thanks

No!!! Never use the DELEGATES tab to share your calendar. This will give others 
SEND AS permissions even if your intention was to only let them be reviewers on 
your calendar. Read that first window on the Delegates tab...

Right-click the calendar in the folder list, Select Properties, Select the

I have a strange issue when I and others on our system try and share our 
calendars with others.  In outlook 2007 on exchange 2007 I click calendar and 
then click 'share my calendar' and type in the person I want to share it with 
and then click send, outlook quickly retorts with the response:

"Calendar sharing is not available with the following entries because of 
permission settings on your network:   Do you 
want to send them a copy of this calendar in an email message instead?"  
(screenshot is below)

This is probably a simple thing but when I google search it seems to be a quite 
common issue and I have not seen any clear resolutions to it.

Does anyone have any insight for me?

Thanks a lot!

RE: Exchange with a vitualized DC at remote location?

2008-06-19 Thread Raymond Brighenti
 

Of course it's so not going to be recommended but you could do it.
What's the exact spec of the box you're putting it on?

 

If you have the Logs and DB on separate disks to the VHD of the domain
controller it should fine with enough RAM.

 

Actually if it's system is big enough and only 30 users it should be
fine, heck there's even an MS article on doing it with SBS and TS!
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=8E1B8271-17A0-4
F3A-A379-19ECF37D4229&displaylang=en

 

 

Although seeing in the case of a reboot Exchange will be coming up
before the DC you'll need to make sure it can still see the DC at your
site, it'll no doubt slow booting up and if you rebooted when the link
we down you may find yourself in a bit of trouble :-)

 

If have a DC there is the only thing you need then maybe just combine
the 2, anyway, for 30 users and big horsepower shouldn't be a prob.

Subject: Exchange with a vitualized DC at remote location?

 

Open for thoughts:

 

Perhaps I could move my Exchange server to a remote site / collocation.
Now, I have a dedicated VPN link between the collocation center and our
office, which does have a DC, 2 actually.But exchange will want a
DC/GC to chat with if the link ever fails.  To avoid buying more
hardware and save on collocation costs, what if I just fire up a DC/GC
inside a VMware Server (GSX, not ESX) on the exchange box?  The box has
PLENTY of horsepower, and a DC for 30 users can't need than 512mb of
ram, right?   

 

What do you think?  

Cross posted to Exchange list, sorry.

 

 

Thanks

Sam

RE: Phone Conferencing

We are using Nortel's Integrated Call Bridge.  From an Exchange admin point of 
view it is a royal pain in the...

Forms have to be pulled off of the Call Bridge server and published in to the 
Organizational Forms Library (so users can schedule the conferences via 
Outlook...the form connects to the server.)

The pain comes from the version of the form.  If Telecom upgrades the 
server...puts a patch on it...we have to upgrade the form.  BUT...the form 
won't publish properly to the OFL unless you have a pre-SP 1 version of XP.  
One of the security patches killed the form.  The form works OK for Outlook 
2003 SP1 & 2007 with XP SP1...you just can't publish the form.  Took me weeks 
to figure out why the form wouldn't work after they upgraded.  Nortel tried to 
help, but what we went through was new for them too.  Possibly they've fixed 
the issue by now...

Thanks Michael-

I am using EX2007 so I went to Org Config in EMC and went to Offline address 
book and right clicked the default and clicked update, it warned me and 
proceeded about its business.  That however didn't seem to do anything, when I 
clicked download address book I got a "object cannot be found" error.

However I then went off on my own trying things :)  Under address lists I 
created a new address list and in the criteria specified that all users with an 
exchange mailbox would be in the list.  Done... went to outlook and clicked the 
arrow next to send and receive and it worked, however the Global address list 
is still lacking 95% of the people, but in the dropdown I can now select the 
list I just created and see everyone.

It seems that any new accounts that have been created since our very first 
batch of 10 have not been added to the global address list.  Is there a way to 
create a new default global address list or change the criteria of it or force 
it to add all the new mailboxes.

I love when one problem ends up being something else.

Returning true on * seems like a rather effective exit strategy to me.

Whether this strategy is agreeable to all users of the service is another
matter.  But, in my view, users of any service would be wise to read the
applicable T&Cs and any warrantees of fitness *before* signing up.
AFAIKT, the exit strategy employed by this free service fell well within
its bounds.

No!!! Never use the DELEGATES tab to share your calendar. This will give others 
SEND AS permissions even if your intention was to only let them be reviewers on 
your calendar. Read that first window on the Delegates tab...

Right-click the calendar in the folder list, Select Properties, Select the 
Permissions tab and set your desired permissions there.

I have not seen that but I typically share calendars either through Delegation 
or by setting the permissions on the Calendar folder.

To Add someone as a Delegate
>From the Main Outlook Window From the Tools menu Select Options
Click on the Delegates tab
Click the Add button and set the appropriate permissions

To directly change the Calendar Permissions go to the Properties of the Calendar
Click on the Permissions tab
Click the Add button and set the appropriate permission level

Do these options work?

RE: Hub Transport can't talk to Active Directory.

2008-06-19 Thread McCready, Robert
Will uninstalling the Hub Transport role and not re-installing it with the 
recoverserver switch affect the mailbox servers?  Right now, I have the mailbox 
servers restored in the lab along with all the data in each storage group.  I 
am able to open mailboxes with no issues.  We started the lab with a copy of 
Active Directory from the production environment and then restored each of the 
Exchange Servers with the recoverserver option.  We wanted to keep everything 
as close to production as possible.  The only problem right now (that I'm aware 
of), is mail getting stuck in the queue on the Hub Transport server.

I just want to make sure uninstalling the Hub Transport isn't going to cause us 
to have to rebuild the lab?

Thanks.

No, you can survive just fine without a hub transport server, it wont affect 
your mailbox roll at all (you just wont be able to send/receive email without 
it).

One of the nice things about 2007 and the role based architecture is that you 
can add/remove server rolls (and servers) without affecting other services.  
This type of thing should be a real quickie, uninstall and then re-install.

But like MBS said, the recoverserver option is for recovering servers from DR 
instances.  That would mess up your lab :)

access to public folder calendar only

2008-06-19 Thread Laurence Childs
Hi

 

I have a client who has asked for the following

 

They have moved a PC in to a 'meeting' room where they want to have a
generic log in so that any member of staff can log in to it

 

That log in should ONLY be able to make entries in to a calendar or
calendars in Public folders to make bookings for other meeting rooms

 

Is there a way to set Outlook 2000, or another mechanism, so that it
does not access any mailbox and only this (or these) calendars in the
public folders for this one particular user

 

Environment

 

Server:

MS Exchange 2003

 

Client:

MS Windows 2000 Pro SP4+

MS Outlook 2000

IE 6

 

Cheers

 

Laurence

RE: Exchange with a virtualized DC at remote location?

Thanks Ray.  I do have Logs and DB on separate Disks, but I don't have
another disk that I can set aside for just the VHD.   I do however, have
another server there doing a completely separate role, perhaps it makes
sense to put the virtual DC on that...

Of course it's so not going to be recommended but you could do it.
What's the exact spec of the box you're putting it on?

 

If you have the Logs and DB on separate disks to the VHD of the domain
controller it should fine with enough RAM.

 

Actually if it's system is big enough and only 30 users it should be
fine, heck there's even an MS article on doing it with SBS and TS!

F3A-A379-19ECF37D4229&displaylang=en

 

 

Although seeing in the case of a reboot Exchange will be coming up
before the DC you'll need to make sure it can still see the DC at your
site, it'll no doubt slow booting up and if you rebooted when the link
we down you may find yourself in a bit of trouble J

 

If have a DC there is the only thing you need then maybe just combine
the 2, anyway, for 30 users and big horsepower shouldn't be a prob.

Open for thoughts:

 

Perhaps I could move my Exchange server to a remote site / collocation.
Now, I have a dedicated VPN link between the collocation center and our
office, which does have a DC, 2 actually.But exchange will want a
DC/GC to chat with if the link ever fails.  To avoid buying more
hardware and save on collocation costs, what if I just fire up a DC/GC
inside a VMware Server (GSX, not ESX) on the exchange box?  The box has
PLENTY of horsepower, and a DC for 30 users can't need than 512mb of
ram, right?   

 

What do you think?  

Cross posted to Exchange list, sorry.

 

 

Thanks
