Can't perform a Differential on Exchange 2003
Every time I now try to perform a diff, it attempts to mount the media I am about to write to, then when I finally cancel it says you can only perform a diff after a full. I ran the full yesterday. Anyone know what this is about? Thanks! jlc
RE: Can't perform a Differential on Exchange 2003
Double check to see that your FULL backup job is modifying the archive bit ??? It's possible to run a full backup without modifying this bit, so the next incremental or differential thinks that nothing has been backed up yet _ From: Joseph L.

RE: Can't perform a Differential on Exchange 2003
I just ran a full after I sent the first email, and now I was able to create a diff (Just like every other time during testing). So there is something that happens at night that fsck's it up. I wish I would have seen this email before I started my daily snap (a redundant backup, I run a VSS snap of the two drives with logs and db's and simply rsync them off), I just started the snap after the full and diff completed and its partly through now. Currently the Archive Attr is on for *every* file, and I didn't check before I ran the snap:( The only other process's that run at night aside from the VSS Snap are Online Maint and VIPRE Email Security. I'll try a diff after the snap is done and see if that is affecting it, otherwise I will re-run a full and look at what is happening.

Exchange 2007 Certificates
We are currently using an Exchange 2007 self signed certificate that will soon expire. Since we have a small amount of users that are getting a hub transport certificate error anyway, we just planned on replacing the self signed certificate with one from our own internal CA. Is that a big deal? Should we look at an external CA instead? Would I need to remove the self signed certificate BEFORE installing the new certificate? Anybody else been through this? Enough questions? Thanks all, Rob
Re: Exchange 2007 Certificates
You can buy a cert from certificatesforexchange.com for $30 or a UCC cert for $60 (its cheap, just do it!). No you don't have to remove the old cert, you just install and enable the new cert for the services you want to use it for.

RE: Exchange 2007 Certificates
Do I need two certificates??? One for the internal Hub Transport Servers and one for the Edge Transport Servers in the DMZ? Our big concern right now is the internal certificate, since it's the one (Hub Transport Server) giving us errors. Perhaps I should just use our internal CA to replace the Hub Transport Self Signed Certificate and purchase a separate certificate from certificatesforexchange for our (DMZ) Edge Transport Servers? Or, would one certificate placed in the right place take care of Hub Transports and Edge Transports?

RE: Exchange 2007 Certificates
Right now, I'm just using a self signed certificate for INTERNAL use only. S, from what I've just been reading, it sounds like I only need to worry about a public CA if I have external client access from the Internet (beyond our firewall), which we do NOT. POP3 and IMAP4 Outlook Web Access Outlook Anywhere Exchange ActiveSync Autodiscover Domain Security Since I'm just worried about INTERNAL communication, I guess a public CA is not currently a concern. The reason this initially came up was because a few of our users are receiving some certificate errors. This CA Root certificate is not trusted. Issued to our_hub_transp...@our_domain.commailto:hub_transp...@our_domain.com Issued by our_hub_transp...@our_domain.commailto:hub_transp...@our_domain.com Valid from 11/03/2008 to 11/03/2009 I have no idea why our Self Signed internal certificate says it's not trusted for a few users, especially since it work for 95% of the company, and it has NOT expired yet! I do know that EVERY user that has the issue is using Outlook 2007. The certificate warning has never popped up for an Outlook 2003 user.

RE: Exchange 2007 Certificates
You can use wildcard certs, no problem. I've deployed them to several clients. The only funky thing is that you have to configure the OutlookProvider, specifically the EXPR provider, to properly use a wildcart cert, otherwise Outlook Anywhere will fail.

RE: Exchange 2007 Certificates

defrag
I googled and got more confused, so I figured I'd open myself up to ridicule and maybe start a fight in here. running E2k3 on W2K3 servers. On one of my mailbox servers the data partition that has the ex db files shows 96% fragmentation. (looking at file fragmentation using windows sys tools defrag util). I've seen posts that say the util will skip the .edb file so it's ok to go ahead and run, but I think I've actually seen defrag hang on an .edb in the past. What do you recomend/use IF ANYTHING to do file level defrag of files on a partition with exchange files on it. I am NOT asking about defraging the exchange files. Thanks for any insight. jeff

Exclude contacts from GAL
I am running Exchange 2007 SP1. I am being asked to exclude contacts that were created in AD from appearing in the GAL. From what I have read, it is not a good idea to modify the query for the GAL. I also have not found instructions on how to do it if I ignored the warnings. So if we want to exclude contacts from the GAL without modifying the query for it. Is there a way to?

iphone / active sync / Calendars
Hello, We have on Iphone belonging to the one person I can't tell no! The newest iPhone version supports multiple calendars. This person has multiple copies of his calendar in outlook, and now they show up on his phone. He does not want this! I see no options for selecting what calendars sync via activesync, outlook or iPhone. All the buzz I find via google searches is isn't the multiple calendars great and no discussions of how to control what synchronizes! I've tried removing these from the My Calendars in outlook 2003,. I tried renaming the calendar folders, the rename of the folders sync'd Any suggestions short of deleting the extra folders from his exchange mailbox? Running Exchange 2007sp1 on Windows Server 2008. Thanks! Tom Cass
Re: iphone / active sync / Calendars
In the iPhone 3g (not an older iPhone), go to Settings/Mail, Contacts, Calendars/ scroll to the bottom of the screen, then select Default Calendar. There is also the option to select the Default Email account a little way up the screen. Selecting the last entry under Exchange gets you the ActiveSync'd Exchange calendar.
