Moving DBs to new location via powershell
Chaps, Is there a way to move the mailstore DBs in exchange 2007 to a new location via the powershell? We need to schedule a transfer in the small hours of a Saturday morning and I figure that powershell is the best way, if possible, of doing it.

Hi Olly, You should be able to do this with the move-storagegrouppath cmdlet. i.e. move-storagegrouppath -identity SG1 -LogFolderPath:d:\newsgpath -SystemFolderPath:d:\newsgpath -force (this stops it prompting you to confirm) Regards Phil _ From: Oliver Marshall [mailto:oliver.marsh...@g2support.com] Sent: 04 June 2009 10:19 To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: Moving DBs to new location via powershell Chaps, Is there a way to move the mailstore DBs in exchange 2007 to a new location via the powershell?

RE: Outlook Anywhere - Externally
Hi James, If you want to use Integrated auth on the RPC/HTTP site, you'll need to configure the firewall to use Kerberos Constrained Delegation, since if you're using FBA at the firewall's Web listener you can't delegated NTLM, and fallback to basic on that listener will only support basic delegation.

GAL Export
I am trying to export our GAL to a .csv file. We are a 2003 domain, and we are running Exchange 2003. I found this article from Microsoft that says to use csvde: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/555397 I used the syntax they provided and subbed in my domain info: csvde -r (objectClass=user) -d dc=subdomain,dc=domain,dc=com -l displayName,proxyAddresses -f c:\users.csv However, when I look through the csv file I see that it has exported user and computer objects, even though the objectClass only specifies user objects. Is this to be expected? Or am I doing something wrong? I ran this from the command line of the DC as a Domain Admin. The particular DC I used is not a GC. ~ Ninja Email Security with Cloudmark Spam Engine Gets Image Spam ~ ~ http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Ninja~

VIPRE
I know this is a sunbelt list but I would like to hear some opinions of VIPRE and how you compare it against other AV, anitmalware products. I currently use TrendMicro and have no issues with it. It has caught most virus' that come through and missed a few. I know VIPRE is cheaper and uses little processing power when it runs. What i am trying to figure out is any downside to moving over to it. I know when i used counterspy when it first came out we used to run into problems where it would quarantine files it shouldn't have like windows associated dll's or something like it. Has this changed? we sometime deal with some development software and i don't want to get a bunch of calls if the software is too aggressive after an update. Hope that make sense. I appreciate any input you may have. Regards, David ~ Ninja Email Security with Cloudmark Spam Engine Gets Image Spam ~ ~ http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Ninja~
OWA Light Vs. Premium (Exch2k7)
Hello, In OWA Light, we have several users that can move mail objects from their inbox to tasks, but are unable to in OWA premium. The error received is when attempting to move the object in OWA Premium is; The item or items could not be moved to the folder you chose. Choose a different location and try again.

RE: VIPRE
I've had VIPRE Enterprise on my church's network for 6+ months without issues. This was an upgrade from AVG Pro. It has already prevented several malware infections from casual web browsing. I've just switched from McAfee to VIPRE on my 180+ node network here when my McAfee maintenance expired. It's catching stuff that McAfee ignored, is MUCH easier to manage, and runs noticeably lighter (except when scanning). I've had none of the issues others have experienced and recommend it highly. One of the biggest advantages is Sunbelt's superior US support.

RE: VIPRE
I've replaced Trend with it on two relatively small networks. I like it much more than Trend. I would suggest that you run a couple of scans with it set to do nothing, just to see what it will pickup. After that you can adjust it to clean, quarantine, or delete based on the type of file it finds. I think they could improve their approved program list. Both installs have a long list of things that should have been on the list, but were not. \\Steve// From: David Baca [mailto:dbaca.gr...@yahoo.com] Sent: Thursday, June 04, 2009 6:54 PM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: VIPRE I know this is a sunbelt list but I would like to hear some opinions of VIPRE and how you compare it against other AV, anitmalware products.
