Removing Newsgroups
Hi all, I was wondering whether anyone come across an easy way to remove newsgroup listings from ex2k? I had originally set up a newsfeed, which then downloaded 25000 newsgroups onto our server. When I try and delete the roots of the newsgroup hierarchy it kills system manager, and generates huge volumes of logs. I am assuming it is to do with the volume of exchange objects being deleted in one go, because I can delete individual newsgroups without any issue. Any Ideas? Thanks in Advance Kieran Fitzgerald List Charter and FAQ at: http://www.sunbelt-software.com/exchange_list_charter.htm

For some reason, the M: drive has been changed to amvex.com instead of my domain amico.com. The drive is M:\AMVEX.com\MBX\, according to the Exchange resource kit it needs the SMPT for that address, (Amvex) in this case. I simply added [EMAIL PROTECTED] to a user as a secondary address and it now works. Problem I need to change this back to amico.com, can that be done? The main domain is amico.com, however I'm also hosting an other company called Amvex and need to be able to continue receiving mail for Amvex. If I can change the M:\ to M:\amico.com\MBX, I can add secondary [EMAIL PROTECTED] addresses for Amvex since the users are few. How to I change the M:\ drive?

Security Analysis for Ex2k?

permissions problems!!
Whilst playing with my permissions on my ex2k server, I managed to deny 'everyone' access to the one server in our site. Obviously without thinking that it would lock out the users who were explicitly granted access!! Hence I now have a dead exchange server. Does anyone know how to help?

RE: Urgent Running out of Drive space
Maybe if you use your exchange server as a print server, spool files build up in the system32\spool folder. Also maybe your service pack uninstall folder in the winnt? Also also sometimes what you see as taking up 1gb in explorer might be using more disk space due to fragmentation and block size of the disk... Another thing is to check the size of the user profiles Regards, Kieran Fitzgerald -Original Message- From: Jason Dwyer [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: 16 January 2002 01:10 To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: Urgent Running out of Drive space Hi all, I have a little problem, my C drive on my exhchange server is down to 9mb...

RE: owa 5.5 & ex2000 native
I was working on a way of making custom outlook forms available to our web users without re-inventing the wheel and learning how to develop Web Storage System forms for OWA2k. Obviously I only came up with the idea of installing an ex5.5 OWA server & outlook form converter after I had switched to native mode... I did remember when I had the domain in mixed mode you could use either OWA5.5 or ex2k to access ex2k mailboxes.

However, these solutions do not need to be replaced and can be used in a native Exchange 2000 Server organization. The problem is that you are talking about a NATIVE E2K configuration. IF E2K is native then where is this E5.5 ? The information above is valid only if you have a Mixed Mode environment. I hope it helps.

Kind Regards Kieran -- From: phil levine Sent: 14/05/2013 00:49 To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: ActiveSync connection issue I am working with a company that has about 1500 activesync devices.

They occasionally receive an unable to connect error on their device. Looking at the CAS servers there are no 3007 or 3014 errors saying that the servers are dropping connections.
