RE: Using Forefront TMG to protect Exchange 2010?
We run TMG/UAG in parallel with our existing firewall, and only use the TMG/UAG portion for publishing Exchange and a few web apps via UAG. The best reason for it is that it blocks unauthenticated attacks against your CAS/IIS. Cheers Matt From: Paul Hutchings [mailto:paul.hutchi...@mira.co.uk] Sent: 10 October 2011 11:19 To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: Using Forefront TMG to protect Exchange 2010? Thanks Jamie. In our case we wouldn't be looking at changing outbound traffic flow since our current box is absolutely to our requirements. I wouldn't say there's an issue or anything forcing us to look at TMG. I'm simply aware that it exists and may be a better (by which I mean safer) way to make Exchange available. At the same time I've no wish to keep adding boxes and VM's for little gain.

Hi Paul, We use TMG in our environment, once it's all setup it works fine. I think the main benefit is as you mentioned it will authenticated against your DC before letting any traffic in as per your rules. We've had issues in environments with over 2000 users (memory issues) where the firewall policies wouldn't go into effect and we'd need to restart the services. I guess the answer is it really depends on what you're trying to do. What's your primary reason for considering another solution? Is your current firewall not meeting some requirements?

I wondered what peoples thoughts are on using TMG to proxy Exchange 2010 OWA/RPC/ActiveSync access? We already use a firewall that does SSL inspection and only allows access to the Exchange virtual directory URL's so I'm not entirely sure what benefits using TMG (solely for Exchange) would give us? If I understand correctly, the primary one seems to be that as you're authenticating to the TMG gateway, and if you don't authenticate you simply cannot throw exploit attempts at the IIS that's sitting on the Exchange boxes?

We are using the Autonomy Zantaz digital safe hosted archive for compliance, this is configured on the exchange servers using journaling, to a specific account, we then have a outlook rule that forwards the message to a external email address, which goes down a specific routing group connector to Zantaz, quick and easy to setup up, and works I know some people dislike journaling, but it does the job.

You have a few options; increase the limit, move users off, or find out what is causing it and stop it. My first suggestion is to take inventory of where your databases are as far as named props are concerned, you need to expose some IS counters to see this info, but it'll give you an understanding on whether it's widespread or concentrated on a set of databases (or users). Next start monitoring your event logs. An event ID is logged by default each time a new named prop is added (event id 9873 I believe) and when the quota's been reached (9666, 7, 8, 9). This can help you track down the culprit. Note, the initial limit reached is the default quota...not the limit. My understanding is that when the hard limit (32k) is reached the database will dismount and you will have to restore from backup and move users off. In my situation I found that less than a dozen users were creating hundreds of named props daily for weeks. This was the result of an open source imap client called offlineIMAP. This client is used to bidirectionally synch messages via IMAP. It does this by creating a unique X-header for EVERY message that comes in, as opposed to a single X-header with a specific value. After finding this out I reached out to the users, and being the ridiculously intelligent (and curious) crew they are they crafted a patch for offlineIMAP (http://software.complete.org/software/issues/show/114).

Oggetto: RE: Outlook through VPN issues
Guido,
I've experienced this issue with my laptop users on occasion. It appears that
the problem is with the network that they're on when they try to open Outlook
over the VPN. An example is this - one of my users is in a particular hotel,
connects with the VPN (Windows VPN client, to ISA 2006), and opens Outlook,
they get a timeout - no matter how many times they retry the connection. It
won't timeout resolving username and server. I've had the user then go to a
local wifi (Panera's or similar), and fire it up in the same manner, and they
connect just fine. We all know that once you establish a connection with a
VPN, you should be able to transport any data/port over it, but my only guess
in these situations is that there is something on the hotel network blocking
the Outlook connection, even after the VPN tunnel is created.
When they experience this, I suggest to them to use OWA - either over the VPN
or not - and they're fine with that.

Oggetto: RE: Outlook through VPN issues
Guido,
I've experienced this issue with my laptop users on occasion. It appears that
the problem is with the network that they're on when they try to open Outlook
over the VPN. An example is this - one of my users is in a particular hotel,
connects with the VPN (Windows VPN client, to ISA 2006), and opens Outlook,
they get a timeout - no matter how many times they retry the connection. It
won't timeout resolving username and server. I've had the user then go to a
local wifi (Panera's or similar), and fire it up in the same manner, and they
connect just fine. We all know that once you establish a connection with a
VPN, you should be able to transport any data/port over it, but my only guess
in these situations is that there is something on the hotel network blocking
the Outlook connection, even after the VPN tunnel is created.
When they experience this, I suggest to them to use OWA - either over the VPN
or not - and they're fine with that.

Having checked on my sql cluster I agree with Peter, the MAC address will be the MAC address of the physical NIC in server that is running with the virtual IP address of the cluster.

If you can guarantee that, it can be anything you want, aside from all zeros. More properly, the MAC address has to be unique within the broadcast domain. For most of us, that means on all the inter-connected Ethernet switches on the same VLAN, but not across routers or point-to-point links. (P-to-P links don't even use MAC addresses, or ARP.) The MAC address cannot be all zeros, all ones (that's broadcast), or a few other reserved addresses I forget the details of. There's even a range of MAC addresses reserved for locally administered addressing. Back before the world settled on twisted-pair Ethernet, some NIC manufactures would assign the same MAC address to multiple cards, so long as the cards used different technologies. So you might, for example, have the same MAC address on a 10BASE-T card and a BNC or Token-Ring card. Makes things interesting on heterogeneous bridged networks. (The university campus network I started on had at least one of pretty much every network technology ever invented.) An IP address should be associated with as most one MAC address for things to work properly. Otherwise ARP will return inconsistent results, yielding bad crazyness. (A single MAC address can easily have multiple IP addresses, however.) Generically, clustering technologies often screw this up, since you've got multiple physical machines in charge of a single IP address. They cluster software is supposed to manage that, but sometimes it don't. -- Ben ~ Ninja Email Security with Cloudmark Spam Engine Gets Image Spam ~ ~ http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Ninja~ ~ Ninja Email Security with Cloudmark Spam Engine Gets Image Spam ~ ~ http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Ninja~ _ This e-mail (including all attachments) is confidential and may be privileged.

RE: Exchange 2007 roles
Thanks, I spent a lot of time yesterday thinking exchange 2007 would be the best route, as I was going to provision it as a VM on our ESX cluster, I found that it wasn't as straight forward as I thought, as we wanted to run the MS Iscsi SW initiator within the VM so we could provision the Luns for the exchange database and logs on our Netapp filer, so the database and logs are replicated to the remote site for BC/DR. Although running the MS Iscis initiator within a VM is now supported there are a lot of caveats, mainly around NIC drivers Having finally come to my senses I called Microsoft PS and spent £398 on Critical Issue case, then spending a very long night on the phone with Microsoft PS, we finally have managed to stop the exchange server BSODing every 4 hours. It seems there were 2 applications tied into the winlogon process, which was BSOD's (PCAnywhere and Desktop Authority/Scriptlogic) we removed both of these from the server and any registry entries associated with them, rebooted the server and it has now been up for 7 hours. It's time to start planning for exchange 2007.

At the present moment we have a exchange 2003 server as a back end and another as a front end/bridgehead box with both supporting around 20 users, There are also other exchange servers within the exchange org, on other sites. Due to what looks like windows issue the backend server blue screens every 4 hours. Rather than continuing to try and fix the problem, which having spent 16 hours on it so far is not getting me anywhere, I was thinking about deploying exchange 2007.

Exchange 2007 roles
All, I'm hoping that I can borrow the collective intelligence of the group, to help me with this.

Due to what looks like windows issue the backend server blue screens every 4 hours. Rather than continuing to try and fix the problem, which having spent 16 hours on it so far is not getting me anywhere, I was thinking about deploying exchange 2007.

Troy, You are right with your assumptions. Thanks everyone for your help. Cheers Matt -Original Message- From: Troy Meyer [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 18 September 2008 16:46 To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: Exchange 2007 roles First, co-existence should be no issue. We had some silly telephony stuff that forced us to keep an Exchange 2000 server around for a lot longer than we planned (its still here). It hums along with two user accounts on it and everything else is 2007. As for your infrastructure, let me see if I understand you correctly. You have multiple AD sites connected by some sort of WAN link You have Exchange mailbox servers at multiple sites You have FE servers at multiple sites (converting to CAS) You are running DNS RR for external FE addresses for redundancy This sounds like a good setup, but I think your DNS RR for OWA wont work like you want it to in 2007. I believe that the autodiscovery service will always re-direct your OWA users to the CAS server closest to their mailbox, so the remote-site OWA server wont actually do much except harass folks logging into it and point them to the local-site OWA server and have them re-login. This would create redundancy if the local-site OWA server was down for some reason, but it can frustrate users a bit when they get re-directed and have to login a second time. Also I think Neil was right, having your CAS as a HT wont hurt it, but I don't think it will really see a lot of action.

Re: Exchange 2003 SP2 iSCSI
I've done it with exchange 2000 and 2003, no problems, although I would make sure all your iscsi traffic is on a seperate VLAN, that isn't routeable. If you wan to do it on the same nic, as client connections put in in a dot1Q vlan port. Nail all the nic ports to gig and the same with the switch, don't let autonegotiation try to sort it out, it always fails. Also investigate flow control, on both the nics and the switches, are set to the same. As for jumbo frames, we saw significant improvement in IO to the Iscis arrays, over standard gig ethernet. If you are going to implement jumbo frames, only do it for Iscsi, its not worth the grief trying to do it for clients. Also make sure everything supports jumbo frames, the cisco3750 switches need a reboot after enabling jumbo frames. We have been using netapp iscis arrays for years providing iscsi luns to exchange, sql and now vmware. If you implement carefully, I cannot see you having any trouble.

RE: E2k7 Unified Messaging and Avaya
Matt, We just made the decision to go Modular Messaging, although we are still on Exchange 2003, we looked into UM a lot, but found that the feature set is still very basic, compared to MM 3.1 With connection to the PBX with MM, you have the option for H.323 based ip trunks or Qsig via E1 or T1 card in the server, both options work well. We currently have a number of networked Avaya S8xxx PBX's worldwide running CM3 to CM 5, all using 2 Avaya MM systems ( 1 in the US and 1 in the UK) to be honest the installation experience really depends on the person you get, I have seen a lot of people who do not understand MM trying to install it failing, but if you get someone who knows what they are doing, it makes a great difference. If you want any further info, please feel free to contact me off list.

RE: How to programmitically capture delivery failures.
You could look at Genius Connect, it allows outlook to sync with a sql database, we use it to keep our mailing lists up to date. http://www.geniusconnect.com/geniusconnect.asp Cheers Matt From: Campbell, Rob [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 14 March 2008 21:27 To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: How to programmitically capture delivery failures. I'll look into them. I have to get anything that's not from an already approved vendor through an approval and risk assessment process before I can install it on a production machine. Right now I'm just trying to get something reasonably reliable in place and working as soon as possible. Running them to the queue seemed like the quickest way to be able to do that. I understand this is more of an administrators solution to the problem, than a developoer's solution, but for the moment I don't have the luxury of getting to wear that hat for as long as it will take to do it the right way. From: Michael B. Smith [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, March 14, 2008 4:07 PM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: How to programmitically capture delivery failures. I gotta go back and recommend the Lumisoft library. You can pull those messages down using either POP-3 or IMAP and process them. The library also has easy ways to deal with MIME encoding (which I've found invaluable). All that being said, the Exchange 2007 libraries for dealing with MIME are well documented and slightly easier to use than Lumisoft's library. However, by using the Lumisoft solution you can develop a solution NOW that will work on both versions of Exchange Server. ObDisclaimer: I am not associated with Lumisoft in any way. He fixed a bug in his library for me once, and that's the only contact I've ever had with the author. I've just had great luck with the solution - especially when building applications in PowerShell and C#. Regards, Michael B.

Well, I can pull the delivery failures out of the mailbox using the \\.\backoffice file:///\\.\backoffice file path, but it's not pretty. Using it also means I have to find another solution soon because I'm in the process of getting rid of those E2K3 servers. It seems like the hard part is getting them out of the mailbox. I'm considering sending them to a dead-end queue, and pulling them out of there as .eml files using the EMS export-message cmdlet. As far as getting them to the queue, I was thinking of either sending them from (or just re-directing the returns to) a non-authoritative domain, setting up a send connector for that namespace, and dead-end it (maybe smarthost it to an unreachable address). All the returns should collect in that connector's queue, and then it's just a matter of using the EMS cmdlets to export them, and keep the queue cleaned up. Thoughts? From: Michael B.

Kurt, Good luck with getting help from your ISP regarding BGP, unless it is one of the bigger ISP's they won't tend to give you BGP. We usually end up with one of the following: A full Internet routing table, which requires a decent size router, such as a Cisco 7204VXR Just the Default route, eg 0.0.0.0 Or nothing at all, and then we use object tracking feature in Cisco IOS to track a remote IP address and change the routes based on availability of the IP address. BGP is not for the faint hearted, if you want to learn more, the Cisco website has some good public examples. http://www.cisco.com/en/US/tech/tk365/tech_configuration_examples_list.h tml Have fun Matt -Original Message- From: Kurt Buff [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 11 January 2008 06:31 To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: Re: Spam Filter / Anti-Spam On 1/10/08, Edward B.

Without filtering, you'll send routes from A to B, and vice-versa. ip as-path access-list neighbor ... filter-list Google for AS 7007; that'll shed some light on the importance. :-) Eddy You're a bad boy, Eddy. Why did you do that? :) Seriously, it's clear I have a bit to learn aobut this stuff. I'll be enlisting the help of our new ISP when the time comes.

RE: Blackberry question
But you can buy more Cals, upto 30, I have no idea how much they are though. Available from the blackberry store J https://www.blackberry.com/purchaseonline/Login.jspx If you speak to your mobile provider, you may be able to get the BES out of them free of charge, or at least a very much reduced price. As far as I know they is no difference in the versions apart from the number of users that each will support. From experience supporting blackberry isn't that hard, as long as you follow 2 rules: RTFM when installing, and following the instructions. Make sure the cdo versions on exchange and the bes server are the same version. As for day to day stuff, there isn't a lot to do apart from archiving logs, it usually just works If your exchange server isn't stress you may get away with installing BES on the same box, although not supported, I have never had any problems getting it to work.

RE: Blackberry question
This may be the start of another WM vs Blackberry Rant J Having used a blackberry since there were first released, there is only one choice. If you look how blackberry has evolved over the last 6 years, from my opinion MS and the WM devices manufactures are way behind on the curve. On a regular basis I test new devices as they come on to the market, and so far as yet none of the WM devices come close to the user experience of a Blackberry, both in simplicity to use and stability. Battery life on WM devices sucks compared to any blackberry. As for Manageability, the ability to blank devices remotely as long as they have a network connection is fantastic, and the control that the administrator has over the device is second to none, and is simple and easy to implement.

RE: Blackberry question
Cheers Don, just what I needed a Boxing day slap down J I slightly agree blackberries are for stupid people, but I can guarantee to hand a blackberry to anyone (including my wife) and for them to be able to use it without any user training or frequent calls back to the service desk. Some WM devices do have their place, but in this world of just having one device, a blackberry will always be my first choice J Matt From: Don Ely [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 26 December 2007 22:41 To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: Re: Blackberry question Inline On Dec 26, 2007 2:38 PM, Davies,Matt [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: This may be the start of another WM vs Blackberry Rant J Having used a blackberry since there were first released, there is only one choice.
