RE: E2K10 Web Admin Tool
The capability was present in the E14 beta ECP - but it was pulled before RTM. That's why I asked my original question the way I did. The issue is that there was no way at RTM to identify WHERE the accounts were to be created, and putting them in the default Users container was deemed to be confusing, at best. And an OU administrator likely doesn't have write access to that container anyway. There is an account creation mechanism in hosted Exchange - but it isn't part of ECP, it's part of the hosting console. Regards, Michael B.

RPC/HTTPS issue
Hello again, all... I have a user who gets a repeating login screen on his laptop when I try to configure his email over rpc/https. When logging onto other computers with the same username, it works! What on earth could be stopping this connection on that laptop? I don't even know where to begin troubleshooting. The laptop is XP Pro with Office 2007 all fully patched. The Exchange server is 2003 Enterprise also patched. I sure would appreciate any advice. Thanks! Bill Lambert Windows System Administrator Concuity A healthcare division of Trintech, Inc.

Do such resources exist?
Are there any companies that specialize in supporting Exchange in the following manner: Our in-house Exchange is down, we need an Exchange expert in here within an hour to help us fix it. I work for an SMB of about 400 employees and we have clustered Exchange 2007 and I have been tasked to look at outsourcing options to meet some business requirements, and I was thinking if there was a company that specialized in Exchange DR that might meet our needs instead of outsourcing. If it matters I am in the Portland, Oregon area. David Lum // SYSTEMS ENGINEER NORTHWEST EVALUATION ASSOCIATION (Desk) 971.222.1025 // (Cell) 503.267.9764
RE: Do such resources exist?
Well, sure. There are consulting companies that offer emergency service, as well as independents such as myself. Typically speaking, you are best suited having a relationship with someone first (so that they have some idea about your configuration and that you have a level of trust with them). While it is certainly possible to swoop in and save the day, that level of pressure isn't any fun on either side of the fence. It's very rare these days that onsite is required. I've got clients all over North America and a few in the UK. I've physically met few of them, but have a good relationship with all of them. Regards, Michael B.

Dell ProSupport has a handful of wonderful Exchange Experts that have always helped me out in the past. I have been very impressed how the jump onto your case. They can get MS Support on the phone for free too. Dell may not be your vendor, but you want to check with whomever you vendor is.

RE: RPC/HTTPS issue
Here are a couple Outlook settings that you may want to check both are in the Advanced properties of the Exchange account. 1 - From the Connections Tab-- Exchange Proxy Settings... button - Do the proxy authentication settings for his PC match the other computers? Basic or NTLM authentication. 2 - From the Security Tab - Do the security settings on his PC match the other PCs that do not prompt for authentication?
