Subject: Selective Wipe of ActiveSync devices
Good morning all,
What is everyone using for their corp. environment to do selective wipes of
ActiveSync devices that aren't owned by the company? I'm currently running
Exchange 2003 SP2 with plans to upgrade to 2010 later this year. With that in
mind would I be better off upgrading to Exch 2010 first?

Basically, the author uses the *nix strings command to find readable text and then slices and dices the output a bit. It's very much like what Kurt proposes, but takes into account that the Exchange logs are not pure text. Looks very useful, actually.

Riddle me this: Added three additional mailboxes to Outlook 2010 to assist HR with something. Later, removed those three mailboxes from the profile. Next day, noticed they still show up on the left under my list of mailboxes. Check additional mailbox tab in the profile, not there. Right-click to close, and get a notice saying to remove from the profile. Go back to the profile, they don't appear as additional mailboxes, nothing to remove. Make new profile, they're still there. Go to new computer with Outlook 2010 and log in for the first time, make new profile, and they as still there as well. It appears the server side is somehow making these mailboxes always show up in my list. Anyone know why? They don't show up in OWA or Outlook 2007, so I'm guessing it's an Exchange/Outlook 2010 feature? Thanks Outlook 2010/Exchange 2010 SP1/Win7 32bit.

Throughout our discussions and interactions with GFI, we have been continually impressed with their dedication to quality, customer service and superior performance throughout the company. Both companies are similar in their attitudes and practices with regard to customer service, product quality, strategic vision, organizational styles and culture.

These areas include vulnerability assessment, patch management, data leakage prevention, hosted/cloud-based technologies, and MSP solutions. No specific plans have been made yet in terms of product integration strategies, but we are working with the GFI team to identify areas where their technologies would complement our offerings. In addition to the technology side, GFI provides additional resources in terms of capital, management expertise, systems and new markets that will continue to propel our products and our teams to the highest level of achievement possible. For the time being, both companies are hard at work, integrating the various sales, marketing, finance, and technology teams. Our goal is to make the combination of the companies as seamless as possible to you, and we will continue to provide you with updates and information as we work to combine the organizations.

No in place upgrade option. It's a swing migration. First I really hope you mean LCS2005sp2 (standard?) and not the one without the sp. They are really different products. Patch it. All the way. Patch the clients. There are specific patch levels you need to be at or higher. Second, you want ocs2007r2. (I assume standard) where you can put most of the likely roles on one server. Third. Prepare yourself Somewhere in the product development cycle there was a decision to change which AD container LCS/OCS stored it's information. In the newer version by default it's stored in the configuration container. This prevents some issues larger installs but there is a point in the upgrade when preparing the schema extensions where you will have the opportunity to run some vbscripts to move your existing stuff to the new location. You 'can' choose not to do this. (because it's scary as hell - copy check delete old) Go through the pain. Because if you do not do this now, then you will pretty much be stuck with it forever. OCS2007r2 moves more into AD then LCS had. Do it now while there are relatively enough people at MS familiar with it. Once you've extended the schema, etc, build the new server. Make sure the certificates all work etc, right click and move users. It's simple at that point.

RE: Microsoft office 2007 ost limit.
Currently I have no mailbox size limits on 250+ users (This is being resolved soon!) Many users have 15GB or higher OST files and we have not really had any issues. I did have a user with an 18GB OST which became corrupt following a user impatience issue (power off without shutdown) and Outlook would not start afterward. The fix was a new Outlook profile and allow cached mode to rebuild the OST. I have another user with an 18GB OST with over 15,000 items in his inbox (not in folders). The machine specs are very good, so Outlook performs fine, however, I have warned him of the inevitable.

I'm not sure you're going to find anyone here who can give you a definitive answer that OST's are OK at X gigabytes, but start to blow up at X+1 gigabytes... Whether Microsoft set the default maximum based on performance concerns, or file stability concerns; or neither; or both... I can't say. Seeing how Microsoft increases the default max OST size to 50GB in Office 2010 should tell you they feel comfortable supporting up to a 50GB OST. I'm not sure what tweaks they've made to the OST format in 2010... Whether the change means anything to an OST under 2007, again I can't say. What *I* can tell you is that I have some users with OST's that are near the 20GB limit on Office 2007. I've never once had a problem with the OST file itself. Even if I did, I'd just delete the OST, tell the user to clean up their mailbox and then re-download from the server... Outlook performance certainly does suffer if the PC is not up to the task of handling the large OST though.

OT: Anyone looking for a Small Business customer in Tulsa, OK?
For the last 7-8 years, I have been remotely supporting a small business in Tulsa Oklahoma. (I am in Kentucky and hit Tulsa 4-5 times a year for my Real job). I setup a small server (SBS2003) and an 831 Cisco Router for cable access about 5 years ago. (On a VERY SMALL budget). There are about 4 users with fairly recent PCs. The customer is concerned with the age of the server and is ready to upgrade. They also need someone for occasional onsite and remote support issues. There is also some legacy software that needs some TLC and is used via RDP directly on the server itself via the administrative RDP. (Since no Terminal Services sessions on SBS2003) For budgetary issues, my thought is that a new server would use W2K8, and run SBS2008 in HyperV and run another W2K8 server for RDP. (Using Swing method to move from SBS2003 to SBS2008) My hope is to drop out of the loop after providing information and introductions. Shoot me an email off list if interested. -- Bob Fronk b...@btrfronk.com

RE: RPC / HTTPS troubleshooting
Certificate expired??? From: Benjamin Zachary - Lists [mailto:li...@levelfive.us] Sent: Sunday, December 27, 2009 9:43 AM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RPC / HTTPS troubleshooting I have a 2003 server with exchange 2003 on it. Its been running rpc/https for over a year and last week it just stopped working. Doing an rpcdiag just shows Disconnected after I get asked for credentials. It works over a vpn. I went back through the initial setup and that didn't work, so I rebuilt the firewall and that didn't do it. The odd thing is that I can goto https://mydomain.com/rpc/rpcproxy.dll I get popped for credentials (no cert error) and then prompted to download/save the dll file. In IIS logs I see the MSPRC 501 messages, which seem to be the same messages that happen when I connect to the vpn or from outside the firewall.. Any ideas where else to look? Or what would the difference be between vpn and nating? I was thinking maybe the 6001-6004 ports but doesn't really make sense. Thanks in advance

Subject: inetinfo.exe memory keeps growing
Exch 2003 ent sp2 on server 2003 sp2
I have been having an issue with inetinfo.exe memory usage growing. I have been
working with Sunbelt tech support as I run their Vipre email security. The want
me to create a hang dump to analyze this which will mean letting it grow until
it basically crashes. I am looking for other solutions. If I restart the smtp
service and leave it alone it will grow slowly until it hangs email delivery at
around 1.6 gig. This might take a week to get that high although I haven't
allowed it to grow that much again. I've just been restarting it on a regular
basis. I don't see very much in the outbound queues or event viewer that point
to anything obvious. I've got perfmon running on the smtp service but I am not
sure what I am looking for.
Any ideas from anyone or am I looking at a possible PSS call to figure out what
is causing this?
thanks

RE: OUTLOOK 2003 VERY SLOW OPENING
Are you running Vista 64 bit? Is this a Dell PC? Bob Fronk P Please print only as needed. From: Murray Freeman [mailto:mfree...@alanet.org] Sent: Monday, June 29, 2009 5:24 PM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: OUTLOOK 2003 VERY SLOW OPENING I've done some research before posting this issue, and can't find any good suggestions, so I'm going to the Source. We have Exchange Server 2K3 running on a Windows Server 2K3 and use the Outlook 2K3 Client. Recently we are having significant slowness upon opening the client first thing in the morning after logging into the network. Later in the day, if opening the client after closing the client, the client loads very fast, within a few seconds. We'd surely like to determine the cause of the slowness or at least a fix. Since we have staggered start times here, it's not like everyone is opening the client at the very same time. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Murray

We have just started discussing archiving, and while compliancy is a goal, I suppose it would be nice to reduce the size of the store. I would think that once you have enabled any archiving solution, you will be reducing your store? Won't messages that people are keeping now be archived (moved out of the store) thus reducing the size, and allowing for lower mailbox limits? Thx From: Eric Hanna [mailto:eri...@sunbelt-software.com] Sent: Tuesday, May 05, 2009 11:15 AM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: Exchange archiving In my experience, the load on the Exchange server tends to depend on how many mailboxes are being journaled, the amount of journaling mailboxes, and how much traffic is being ran through the Exchange server. Based on these factors, I would say you will probably see about a 5-15% increase in utilization (rough estimate but is what I generally see). As for how granular journaling is: Exchange 2003 is set on the store level while Exchange 2007 can be set at the mailbox level. Lastly, my 2pennies worth for the archiving: There are lots of solutions out there for archiving from open source to products like Symantec Vault. Enabling journaling for Exchange archiving is a popular way to go as it ensures capture of inbound and outbound traffic instead of interacting with individual mailboxes. While this gets your compliancy side, it doesn't do anything for your store sizes. Products like SEA (yes, a shameless plug) are able to archive your journaling mailbox (and only keep a copy for the archives) and also archive mailboxes individually. This will get your compliancy side as well as getting your information store reduced. While all solutions serve their function, it really depends on what you want to accomplish while archiving. Are you looking for archiving as a compliancy solution and/or do you want to get your information store sizes down? Is it more beneficial for you and your company to use a hosting company or would you like to keep it in-house?

It seems like most solutions involve enabling journaling on the exchange server and having the server grab a copy of every email that is sent and received. Then (with a hosted solution for example), the copies of emails get securely sent over the internet to the hosting company's servers where we can log in and view/retrieve them for an archive period. Depending on the length of archiving and the amount of data, cost seems to be around $300 - $600 month. I assume in-house solutions (where you have the journaling service send copies of everything to your own in-house server) is also an option? In either case, how do I know my server can handle enabling journaling? There has to be some major performance impact? Also I assume you can enable journaling on a single (or couple) of test mailboxes? Is this what others are doing? Thanks ...

RE: Report spam
I am not familiar with Ironport, so I would say you are right about contacting them directly. I am not so much concerned with reporting spam as blocking it. After a few hours of training the barracuda pretty much runs itself and Ninja catches any leaks. I use different vendors due to the different engine thinking. Each of these products scans for spam and viruses, but use different definitions and engines, so if one misses, the other is likely to catch. (Note I said likely). Also, adding RBLs in the barracuda stops tons of SPAM. Ninja will do all this by itself as well, and I have some small clients that use Ninja exclusively. On my small clients I also use JEPS. http://www.proxmea.com I highly recommend this in addition to Ninja for small clients. JEPS does take some tuning, but really works well, even only the free version. Ninja and Barracuda have an outlook plug in that allows users to classify spam. I don't use these plug ins because I have found that my end results are so good, the users don't need to worry with spam.

RE: A/V Scanning
You need both. You want to catch what you can at the gateway, but whatever slips by the gateway and into the store can be caught when definitions are updated. Otherwise, new viruses could get past the gateway undetected and you would never find them without store scanning. JMHO Bob Fronk [EMAIL PROTECTED] From: Roger Wright [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, November 07, 2008 9:14 AM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: A/V Scanning Need some thoughts on anti-virus scanning. If all email is scanned at the gateway, is it still advisable to have scanning software for the information store? I'm thinking that while it adds more depth to the protection, it really doesn't do much unless it uses different engines than the gateway. Any concensus on this?

HELP Okay, I used to think my users were crazy. Scratch that.. I still think they're crazy, but some weird things are going on with multiple people, so I don't think it's just a simple user screwed up issue. For the past few months, several users have been having issues in Outlook (2003) where they either start a new email, or hit reply, and it ADDS an address to the To: field at random. It seems to be an address that an email was previously sent to from that account. What's bad is that it happens with customers. So, for example: 1. I send an email to, say, Joe, talking about how we're having trouble with a job for customer A. 2. Joe replies to my email, yet somehow, a random email address (typically another customer, like customer B) is magically added to the To field. 3. Customer B replies with a WTH??? email. 4. People look at me with extreme frustration Any ideas what could be causing this? I don't think it's that they're accidentally hitting a key and it's using autocomplete to put a name in. The user that it happened to twice today swore that she checked the To field several times before sending the second email where this occurred (because obviously she was very nervous after it happened the first time.)

Understanding CAL
I have read and received conflicting information about licensing for OWA only access. So... I would like find out how members of the list handle this. Recently I have been asked to add users that will never log in to a company owned PC. They will use their personal computers or customer owned computers to access OWA. If I am currently licensing per device, do I need to get user licenses for these accounts?

Exchange VPN DNS issue
I am sure I am missing something simple here, but I have looked at everything I can think of and have not found the solution. Here is the setup: At my house, I have commercial Internet service with static IPs. I have a Cisco 2811 with AIM VPN module, with a VPN to the Cisco Concentrator at my office. I have an AD setup with SBS2K3 on a separate domain. In order to be able to access my work network I have added a forwarder for that domain in my SBS DNS. Everything works great. Except for one thing: I cannot send email from my personal domain to my work domain. If I remove the forwarder, I can send email to that domain fine. I can telnet from my home to the work Exchange and drop an email that way. I can ping work Exchange machine. I have tried adding a host record on my SBS to send the email to the Internet rather than the VPN, but that does not seem to fix the issue. I tried to add a static record on the SBS DNS to the work Exchange. Did not help. The error is Could not deliver the message in the time limit specified. Please retry or contact your administrator. #4.4.7 Do I need to setup another connector and point it to a relay within the work network? Any Ideas?

When I have used VPN access from home, I use that profile with no problem or interference from my SBS server, but, then, again, I am not using some fancy schmantzy Cisco VPN, but the plain ole MS VPN. I have now got my laptop only set up to use RPC, which, after some initial problems getting connected, and a rebuild of the laptop to remove a long lingering problem that affected exploerer.exe in certain situations, it works just fine. The laptop was the one on which I used the VPN on the most. I also pop mail down onto my main desktop, and I had to set Exchange to allow me to relay from here. The only pain in the butt is that anything I send through the work server, I need to choose the work account to send it with. I used to be able to just send replies without having to set the account, and never had to set anything when sending to another user on the work Exchange. If I do not set it, I get an NDR that the message is undeliverable. However, it is different than what you get, You do not have permission to send to this recipient. For assistance, contact your system administrator.
