User has to enter pre-Windows 2000 login to Exchange 2010

Entered the password several times and locked out her account. We deleted her mail profile and tried to recreate it, but was prompted for username and password, and again locked out her account. This was using usern...@domain.com as the username.

I've had the same issues since we migrated to Exchange 2010 and that was on SP2. Backup Exec 2012 (and Backup Exec 2010 before I upgraded) always failed on Exchange DAGs here. This is a VMware environment. Exchange is on Windows 2008 R2 servers. My environment is simple: two CAS servers, two DAG servers. I opened a support request with Symantec about the issue. The response I received is: I would like to inform you that exchange 2010 SP3 is not yet supported by the latest version of BE at the moment. By not supported I mean that BE has not been tested with Exchange 2010 SP3 officialy. Support for the same may be expected in upcoming releases. About the VSS writers, BE calls them during the backup to take a snapshot of the databases and logs. But due to some reason the writers fail again and again and cause the backup job to fail inturn. In this case, I would suggest you to contact Microsoft Support to fix the VSS writer issue. Once fixed, you can continue taking backups successfully. Just make sure that the Advanced Open File Option is not selected in the backup as it is not recommended for exchange. Well...that sucks. I didn't know about the advanced open file. so I'll disable that and give it another try. So, what are you folks using for backup? The vss writers are always stable, at least when I check.

I have been clicking the System state and the three boxes in the Exchange Group (log files, Mailbox and Public stores) As far as I can tell my backup looks fine. If I run NTBackup I can see the folders in the catalogue. I always felt this would be fine for disaster recovery, (which it probably is). The mailbox store has grown pretty large and my backups are now around 250Gb. However, it looks like one of our users has lost a whole chunk of email and didn't notice inside the deleted retention period, which on our server is 7 days. I don't want to restore the whole mailbox as I am going to go back a few weeks (just to be sure). If I run NTbackup, it does seem to offer anything other than the server it all came from, ie it just seems to want to overwrite everything. This is my ideal scenario: 1. In active directory, create a dummy user account, without a mailbox 2. Us NTBackup to Restore the mailbox store from my backup to a different database somewhere. 3. Connect the mailbox from my restored database in active directory, to the dummy user. 4. Connect Login as the dummy user in outlook, backup the missing emails to a .PST file. 5. Restore the .PST into the live user account 6. Retire rich and famous I know 6 isn't possible, but how about 2? Or is there a different route to achieving this? I really cannot take my server off-line for any long periods or roll-back all my users email, without finding a pitch-fork wielding mob outside my office. Any help appreciated.

Archiving policies and X500 addressing
I'm starting to believe that, judging on the huge amount of unanswered questions on various forums (including Microsoft), that the Exchange 2010 retention and archiving policies are just plain buggy. We assigned a retention policy to another group of users and the archiving part isn't working for one of them. In searching for a solution I ran across several references to adding a X500 address to the mailbox based on the legacyexchangedn. Does this make sense? Has anyone here tried this or had to do it?

Retention tag on archive folder
Exchange 2010, Outlook 2010. If a user creates a mail folder under the Mailbox and assigns it an archive policy, then a folder will be created in the Archive with the same name. If the user tries to set a retention policy on the archive folder, the next day it reverts back to the policy of the folder under the Mailbox.

Retention policies not appearing for single mailbox
Exchange 2010. I have one user who I'm trying to assign retention policies to his mailbox and they're not showing up. He has the same retention policy assigned as several others. I have him set up for Personal Archives as well. The archive mailbox is showing up, but none of the retention policies or tag options. I set him up 2 days ago, so the managed folder assistant should have run, but I went ahead and kicked it off manually today (Start-ManagedFolderAssistant username) and still no joy. This was a mailbox that was migrated from Exchange 2003. He's got other problems with the mailbox as well in that if he saves an email in his Drafts folder he can no longer send it. We have tried deleting and recreating his mailbox and we still see the problem, so is something screwy being retained in AD?

RE: Been a long day today, but I won...
Sweet. Congratulations Kurt! -Original Message- From: Kurt Buff [mailto:kurt.b...@gmail.com] Sent: Wednesday, January 30, 2013 12:42 AM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: Been a long day today, but I won... So, it's month end, and our UK office is noticing that emails are not processing outbound from their office. All of their emails come through the US server, to be delivered wherever, and there are some big emails (4-8mbytes) with proposals and orders and such, and they're getting desperate. Lots of little emails are stuck in queue too, though if left alone they seem to trickle out, while the big messages go to retry status. It's already been a long day for me, having been woken up at 3am because they switched over to a new DSL provider, and couldn't log into the router to set up the PPOA configuration. (pay attention - that's a clue...) While I'm trying to troubleshoot this, the nominal IT manager above me is freaking out and deleting messages from the outbound queue on the UK Exchange server, restarting services multiple times, rebooting the UK server, and generally showing all of the patience and investigative skill of a 4yo. I leave the office at 18:00 to pick up my son at daycare, and arrive home and start ignoring everything else except the problem with Exchange. (I have a very good wife, and I deeply appreciate her patience with me!) I get frustrated, and turn up logging on a bunch of Exchange services, then bounce both the UK and US servers remotely, just so I have a clean starting point in the logs. Finally I notice a 4000 message from MSExchangeTransport on the US server (along with some 4006 messages from the same source on the UK server), and hit paydirt.

RE: Cannot Move Ex2003 Mailboxes
How many mailboxes are you talking about? Is it feasible to export items to a PST and then migrate the mailbox? -Original Message- From: Phil Hershey [mailto:phers...@agia.com] Sent: Friday, December 14, 2012 4:54 PM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: Cannot Move Ex2003 Mailboxes In trying to move a number of mailboxes between a pair of our Exchange 2003 servers, the task will fail. The success:failure ratio is about 4:1. The moves are set to skip corrupted items, generally 100, and generate a report. On the moves that fail, the HTML report that's generated has the 3rd line - moveMailbox mixedMode=false maxBadItems=0. This leads me to think that the bad items setting isn't working. Unfortunately that's not the sole issue, as if I re-run the move against the same mailbox, it will fail again, but not at the same point. For instance today in moving a mailbox, it successfully made it's progress through the 3.8k messages in the Inbox and started on the Sent Items, where it apparently failed at 6056/29898. On the second attempt however, it failed in the Inbox at 718/3920. I found an article saying that putting the 2 servers on the same subnet would solve this, but that was not the case.

RE: Resolved, sort of: More retention woes
We're back to being resolved, but I'm still perplexed. I renamed the folder in the exported PST file and then imported it into the Personal Archive. It has now been there for 2 days and has retained the policies and emails. We're now going to try renaming the folder in the Personal Archive to the original name and see if things start disappearing again. If everything stays good, then I wonder if because we have a 45 day deleted item recovery, is it possible that a newly imported PST being the same as a folder that has been deleted, somehow pick up the retention policy from that deleted folder? And that by renaming the folder, Exchange somehow sees it as a new object? Strange, I know. And if I had more time, I'd play around with it more.

RE: Restoring a folder to a specific folder in the personal archive
I think I sorta figured it out as well, though it's not working the way I hoped. It was to restore a folder in the Personal Archive that was deleted by a retention policy. I was concerned that if I didn't specify a target folder that it would merge the imported mail into the existing folders. New_MailboxImportRequest -Mailbox user -Filepath \\server\filename.pst -IsArchive -TargetRootFolder foldername It creates the imported folder under the folder I specified as the TargetRootFolder. Not what I wanted, but I now see that I can probably remove the TargetRootFolder and it would import the pst into the root of the archive. Thanks! Paul -Original Message- From: Michael B.

RE: Exchange DAG restore to recovery database
Here's further clarification on what I want to do. We're testing retention policies. A particular user wanted to be in on the test group. Said user did not set up retention tags. Said user waited until after 45 days before discovering stuff disappeared. Said user wants his stuff back. So I don't need to recover the DAG as the DAG. I need to recover the database so I can export said user's stuff to a PST. -Original Message- From: Michael B.

RE: Retention policy not deleting
One of the issues that I ran into with retentions is that I didn't realize that to apply the tag to the folder you either had to right-click on the folder and go to the properties there, or highlight the folder and click on the Folder tab and click on Policy there. If you are trying to set it by going to the Home tab and using Assign Policy it will only apply to the email that is currently highlighted. Could that be what's going on with you? -Paul From: Heaton, Joseph@DFG [mailto:jhea...@dfg.ca.gov] Sent: Friday, October 26, 2012 2:08 PM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: Retention policy not deleting Exchange 2010 SP2 RU3 I have created 3 retention policy tags. One for Inbox, one for Sent Items, one for deleted items. I've created a single retention policy that uses these 3 tags. I've assigned this policy to a few mailboxes as test subjects. The policy seems to be working to a point, all messages in those mailboxes in those folders are marked that a retention policy is being applied, and when the message expires. What is not working is the actual deletion. I have the policy set to Permanently Delete messages after 90 days. There are many messages in these boxes that are older than 90 days, but they are not being deleted. I have done a little research and see that there may have been a bug at some point, but that was back in 2010. Has this issue been fixed? Or does the policy not delete anything except after 90 days (in my case) from actually applying the policy? I need to know how it's really supposed to work, and whether or not what I'm seeing is what I should see, or if something is broken.

The problem apparently has weeded itself out by the user deleting the appointments. We'll keep an eye on it and see if it occurs again (and it probably will as he still has 2 devices and will still try to manage his calendar using 1 or both of them). Thanks to everyone that chimed in! -Paul -Original Message- From: John Matteson [mailto:john.matte...@gmail.com] Sent: Monday, October 01, 2012 7:13 PM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: Meeting requests keep coming That should be DELETE the profile (dam you autocorrect).

RE: TMG NLB
Not sure if any of this applies to your environment or not. We run NLB on some of our servers and have occasionally run into problems after updates. In those cases we had 2 NICs on each server with different IP addresses and would show up as one or both connections being on the Public domain. To correct this we had to set up the weak/strong host model again. Because some of those servers traversed subnets we also had to set up routing. Sometimes after updates we would lose those routing settings and have to set them up again. Paul From: Candee [mailto:can...@gmail.com] Sent: Tuesday, October 09, 2012 4:46 PM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: TMG NLB Argh! I updated 9 Servers Saturday. Two were 2010 Forefront Threat management Gateways SP1, in an array - NLB. yesterday I found that the array was broken, and the host manager gone. This morning, I uninstalled the NLB on the host manager, rebooted, and reinstalled it. The NIC disappeared entirely from the server. The server admin reinstalled the VMWare tools, and the NIC is back, but I can't get it to join the cluster. I was able to connect the second host to the Forefront database; but that's as far as I can get. I've added the IP addresses back, etc, and so on. Any suggestions before I call PSS? I know there's another service pack and updates for the TMG servers, Thanks all.

Recovering items from a specific folder
As expected, now that we are testing retention policies we have a user that filed some of their email in the Drafts folder and was deleted with recovery. We tried searching through OWA Recover Deleted Items, but this user has over 7,000 items and couldn't come up with a specific enough search string to narrow it down. It would be nice to be able to add a column for Folder deleted from. I've found on the web where, at least in previous versions of Exchange, that you could go to a link similar to: https://exchange.server.com/owa/user/drafts/?cmd=showdeleted However when I try this it comes back with a Bad request error. Is my syntax wrong? I've found it this way several places. Or is a different way to do this?

RE: Recovering items from a specific folder
So, am I to understand that if DumpsterAlwaysOn wasn't set up in the registry then I can't recover from the specific folder it was deleted from? Even if they're running Outlook 2010?

Meeting requests keep coming
Running mix of Exchange 2003/2010. User's mailbox is on the 2003 box. User is running Outlook 2010. He's saying that he keeps getting meeting requests that have him as the meeting organizer and no response is needed. He'll get the requests, delete them, but then get them delivered in his Inbox again later. I tried my Google-Fu, but wasn't sure how to even phrase what was happening. He has 2 delegates and neither one of them are resending it. He also said that he isn't the organizer of the meeting and neither are the delegates, but someone else entirely. We did upgrade him from Outlook 2003 a month ago, but he said this started last week. -Paul --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to listmana...@lyris.sunbeltsoftware.com with the body: unsubscribe exchangelist

So now I understand that the changes to the ISA server were made after the log files started indicating a problem. So cert problems like this happen?

RE: Certificate Errors
Sorry I’m sounding needy here, but I’m not in the office and trying to troubleshoot this remotely. I ran the Enable-ExchangeCertificate command as below. The errors are no longer showing up on the server. We’re still having OWA issues with at least one server. Looking at the logs on the ISA server we’re seeing: ISA Server tried to delegate credentials, but the Web site does not accept the credentials provided by the authentication delegation scheme configured in the Web publishing rule EX2010 Autodiscover-OA. Verify that the credentials delegation scheme configured in the Web publishing rule matches an authentication protocol enabled on the published Web site. The connectivity verifier Farm: Exchange 2010 - CAS Servers reported an error when trying to connect to https://TELSTAR1.scvl.com/. Reason: No connection. Automatic certificate enrollment for local system failed to enroll for one Computer certificate (0x800706ba). The RPC server is unavailable. ISA Server was unable to establish an SSL connection with ###.###.###.###. No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it. Any help would be appreciated.

We are currently running on Exchange 2010 SP2 RU1 and I have been working on setting the accepted attachment size to 175MB. The proper values have been set on TransportConfig, ReceiveConnector's, SendConnector's, and user Message Size Restrictions. Outlook clients connecting with MAPI are able to send larger size attachements. My problem is Mac Mail clients that connect via EWS and OWA. I followed the following instructions for increasing attachment size in EWS and OWA. (I did changed the various values to be 175MB in the specified unit for the setting) 1. Increase the Global Transport configs for both MaxReceiveSize and MaxSendSize. This can be done through either the EMC GUI, or powershell (set-transportconfig) 2. Modify the /EWS web.config , system.web httpruntime maxRequestLength=5 *this value is represented in kb* 3. Add new value to the the IIS7 applicationhost.config , underneath system.webserversecurityrequestfiltering, add a new line named as follows : RequestLimits maxAllowedContentLength= 5000 / *this value is represented in bytes* 4. Modify the /EWS web.config, httpsTransport maxReceivedMessageSize=5000 *this value is represented in bytes*authenticationScheme=Anonymous. 5. Restart IIS. And detailed description on how to increase the size to 50 MB: 1. Edit C:\Program Files\Microsoft\Exchange Server\V14\ClientAccess\Owa\web.config and update the maxRequestLength value to 51200 2. Open a command prompt and execute the following commands: cd %windir%\system32\inetsrv appcmd set config Default Web Site/ews -section:requestFiltering -requestLimits.maxAllowedContentLength:5120 appcmd set config Default Web Site/owa -section:requestFiltering -requestLimits.maxAllowedContentLength:5120 3. Edit C:\Program Files\Microsoft\Exchange Server\V14\ClientAccess\ews\web.config and change the maxReceivedMessageSize value to 5120 underneath the EWSMessageEncoderSoap11Element / 4. IISreset to apply the change After making these changes OWA access now allows for the larger attachments. But Mac Mail clients are still receiving Your message exceeds the maximum size allowed by the Exchange Server error message when trying to send any attachment over 90MB. Does anyone know where I should look next for increasing attachment size in EWS? Also looking for tips on how to track down error messages in Exchange regarding email submission being rejected.

RE: Certificate Errors
I'm in the ISA server, looking at the Firewall Policy. I've opened the properties of each, gone to the Authentication Delegation tab, and clicked Test Rule. Each policy passes completely except one, which is for our Autodiscover. All the rules pass for that except for rpc and unified messaging on port 443. We aren't running Microsoft UM, so the last part doesn't surprise me, but is the rpc part of the UM as well and probably why it's failing? -Original Message- From: Maglinger, Paul [mailto:pmaglin...@scvl.com] Sent: Thursday, July 19, 2012 7:31 PM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: Certificate Errors I hate to ask but can someone point me in the direction to check that?

RE: Recover 2010 DAG CAS?HUB/Mailbox member to a single CAS/HUB/Mailbox server?
I made a statement 7 seven places down that I believe may have changed how you're reading this where I said everything was gone. I meant all the Exchange servers were gone. In this test we could still recover AD. As such, AD still believes that the original database names exist so I can't create a new database called that and there isn't a need to create the new user, right? With these circumstances is the Dial Tone Recovery feasible? -Original Message- From: Michael B.

No. Stand up a new server on an isolated network having the same name as the exchange server. Install AD with a matching domain name. Install Exchange with a matching organization name. Create a matching mailbox database name (or a recovery mailbox DB - doesn't matter). Create the user in AD whose mailbox you want to recover. Restore the mailbox DB. Associate the mailbox with the mailbox in the DB. This is the same way you do PF recovery. There are a number of variations on this depending on exactly what you want to do. -Original Message- From: Maglinger, Paul [mailto:pmaglin...@scvl.com] Sent: Tuesday, July 17, 2012 5:46 PM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: Recover 2010 DAG CAS?HUB/Mailbox member to a single CAS/HUB/Mailbox server?

I've installed Exchange on the server and the EMC brings up the names of my original databases (on the DAGs, which of course are all failed). I can't remove them using EMC or Powershell because Exchange thinks they're still out there somewhere. I had to remove the server using adsiedit, so I'm thinking that the mailbox databases are in there as well and would be deleted in a similar manner? I thinking that I need to do this if I restore the database from tape it will restore the database under the original name. If so, the way around this would be to restore to a recovery mailbox, then copy the files to the new database and log directories and rename them to the new names.

RE: Recover 2010 DAG CAS?HUB/Mailbox member to a single CAS/HUB/Mailbox server?
We're doing restores from tape. Initially when we brought this in we were told that if we had DAGs that tape backups were unnecessary. This was explained as if we had a 3 member DAG with at least one member off-site then the only thing we had to worry about would be database corruption, and that could be covered with a lagging database on the third member. Paranoia told me that we should at least backup the databases. We currently have a three member DAG but we haven't yet moved the third member off-site, so the potential exists that the Exchange servers could be wiped out if the building was hit. I'm trying to work through what I'd do if this would happen. I initially thought I could use restoreserver, but that isn't working the way I thought it would. Right now I'm looking at Database Portability. -Original Message- From: John Matteson [mailto:john.matte...@gmail.com] Sent: Monday, July 16, 2012 9:30 PM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: Recover 2010 DAG CAS?HUB/Mailbox member to a single CAS/HUB/Mailbox server?
