their knowledge base I found a solution that seems to fit the bill
exactly, except it was for a slightly older version than I have. At 4:58
PM Wednesday I sent off a message to their email support team asking if
this would work for my version, figuring I might get something Monday
because of the holiday weekend.

Much to my surprise there was a reply waiting for me this morning. The
person not only answered my question but also made several other
suggestions, one of which ended up fixing the problem.

What great service I thought and then I looked and realized that this

Just another reason to go with Trend.

 I went through 3 reps before I gave up.  I am now doing most of my purchases with 
Zones.  www.zones.com.  They are a smaller outfit but very well run.  I usually get

Good question.  I sent your question to our head sales guy, and here's what
he had to say:

Our experience with customers that have worked with CDW indicates there is
little or no product knowledge within CDW sales.  They sell products based
on price only.  They don't understand integration with other products, offer
no support, tend to allow subscriptions to expire without notifying their
customers and most importantly don't understand product requirements.
Leading to incomplete or incorrect orders.

VARs like FishNet Security, design solutions, deliver products on-time
correctly this first time, offer migration, implementation and integration
services, and provide support and training.

Heard enough sales crap yet?!  :)

I have a client who is using FineLine on a SCO box. Basically all their
e-mail goes to one POP3 account at the ISP. Fineline retrieves that mail
and distributes it to it's own internal e-mail boxes. Clients retrieve
mail from the FineLine server using Outlook Express. The SCO box seems to
have bit the dust. I am trying to get them back up and running as quickly
as possible, MDaemon seems to be an identical product that runs on the
Windows platform. Looks like I can get this up and running in less than an
hour. My other option is to setup ETRN with the ISP, and install Exchange
2000, which is the long term goal here, but it will be much more
complicated and time consuming. I am leaning towards trying MDaemon.

I would appreciate any input. All comments welcome.

UUNet does this for me and it works fine.  They maintain our zone file on
their DNS server and there are two entries, one for my mail server and one,
with a higher cost, that is their mail server.  So if mine goes down it
queues on their server until mine comes back on line.  Had a scheduled power

Not quite sure if this is OT or not - regardless, here it goes. I have
an Exchange mail server in an office with an internal address 192.x.x.x.
All mail is handled by the Netscreen firewall and routed to the
Exchange server. That all works well. I have requested the hosting
company to set up a 2nd rule in the zone file such that if the firewall
from above is down or gone, forward the mail to this single mailbox and
I can pull when the server comes back on-line.

My testing process is to disable the IP address that corresponds to the
mail.domainname.com in the firewall. I then send a test message to the
administrator account and start monitoring the mailbox at ISP to see if
email is arriving. No mail ever arrives. After 15 to 30 minutes, I
re-enable the config in the firewall and watch mail start to flow
shortly thereafter.

So here are my questions:

1. How long *should* it take for this failover process to take affect 2.
Is my testing process flawed as I am disabling the IP rather than
unplugging the entire firewall

Any thoughts or pointers would be greatly appreciated.

All,

I have a question which isn't really Exchange related, but is email
related.

I work for a small electronics manufacturing firm, and they wish to
launch targeted email marketing campaigns to resellers of our products.

The kinds of things that they'd like to do with it will almost certainly
require database integration, such as insertion of personal and company
names, contractual details, validation of type of recipient (foreign vs.
domestic, authorized to sell product line A vs. product line B, etc.).

We'd be sending at most approximately 5,000 at a time, and usually much
fewer than that.

My first thought is Lyris ListManager Pro, but wanted to know if a)
anyone knows of other products that would fit the bill, especially if
it's significantly cheaper than Lyris' offering or b) any opinions based
on actual use of the product, good or bad.


Thanks,

Kurt

I'm seeing a rather strange problem here.  When users attempt to send

there.  I have seen this once before.  Here's what I see happening:

Users on my side are attempting to email people at another domain.  The
e-mail addresses published for this domain are  [EMAIL PROTECTED]
instead of the typical [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a mx record.  They do have a
mx record... and if you email the remote site @domain.com the mail
arrives in a matter of seconds.  However if you e-mail
[EMAIL PROTECTED] it takes hours.

So, the simple answer is to just tell people to e-mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]
However, I need an answer as to why this is happening so that I can
clear our side of any wrong doing.

OK.  We are using OWA.  Apparently, each time the Exchange Server is
rebooted, it randomly assigns
ports for the directory and information store by default, therefore, the
ports that the client will use must
be statically mapped.  Following the OWA instructions, I made the following
registry entry to TRY and
accomplish the static mapping.

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\MS Exchange
ServerDS\Parameters:

From here, I selected EDIT - NEW - DWORD VALUE.  I then typed in TCP/IP port
for the ENTRY and
typed the port number in under VALUE.  I also did the same for

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\MS Exchange

However, each time I reboot, a new port number is assigned.  Has anybody
else had this problem?

Subject: big problem with my DR procedure

Well, I did another restore the other night of Exchange 5.5 sp3 and realized
that the primary NT account permissions DO NOT transfer over.  I can access
all mailboxes as administrator, but the user ownership is gone.  Also, the
permissions at all levels are gone and have to be recreated.  I/We never
checked to verify permissions before this, as we just tried to access a
mailbox as administrator, so I am just wondering if anybody knows right off
what the problem might be.  

My thoughts, which might be wrong, but nonetheless going to speak my mind,
is that we can't redirect the directory when doing a restore and because of
that, permissions aren't being copied.  So, please let me know whether I am
right in my thoughts, or completely off-track.  So, whether I am wrong or
not, how do I copy permissions and restore them to a test server?

TIA, 

 Mike Zatkalik

Would we see much extra performance?

Potential issue with this security patch.  Running NT 4.0 SP6a and Exchange
5.5 SP4.

Issue is with an older version of IE on the exchange server. We were running
IE 4.01 SP1.  The patch applies fine but upon reboot there is an error
message

procedure entry point wnsprintfa could not be located in the
dynamic link library shlwapi.dll

See MS knowledgebase Q284706

The error manifests itself with OWA (outlook Web Access) users not seeing
any text of their emails.  They can logon fine and see the subject lines -
but clicking on the message brings up a white page.

Resolved (with help from MS tech support) by backing off the patch,
installing IE 5.5 SP2 and re-installing the patch.  This takes several
reboots.

Subject: ARCSERVE for IBM 1/2 DAT 35/70MB drive...Administrator rights
on Exchange 5.5.


I can't seem to get ARCServe to back up my (WINNT 4.0 SP6) Exchange server
5.5 SP2 data files.  I get an error message that tells me that the files
were not copied onto tape and that I should check  to make sure I have
Administrator rights on the files.  I tried to log into Exchange Server
under the same administrator password and there's no problem.  I logged into
the Service Account and made sure I was Administrator there too.

But, When I tried to install A/V software I couldn't log in as Exchange
Administrator either.

Where do I look to resolve my password problems?  I suspect the Exchange
Administrator account is corrupted. Also, one of my users lost his word
functionality and even though I've scanned his machine with two different
antivirus programs, I can't find any viruses or worms, which brings me back
to Exchange Server.  Unfortunately, I can't install an A/V program for
MS-exchange until I resolve the Exchange Administrator account which won't
let me install the A/V software.

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance.

MS01-044

2001-10-30 Thread Mark Kelsay

MS01-044 15 August 2001 Cumulative patch for IIS 4.0/5.0

Has anyone applied this patch to a server running Exchange 5.5 sp4 and IIS
4.0?  I am building a new server and I am wondering if there has been any
issue with this patch before I apply it and put it into production.

OWA on an internal box with SSL.
You could use your existing internal OWA box, just install a certificate.

Subject: OWA in DMZ?


Hi all.  I'm new to the list, so apologize if this is a duplicate post. 
What's everyones opinions on an OWA 5.5 (NT4) box in the DMZ?  Primary
Exchange server is 5.5 (NT4) behind firewall (using NAT) and OWA is
already installed on the same box for internal use.

Need to make OWA available external.  What is the best way?
OWA in DMZ?
OWA in DMZ with SSL?
Use OWA on internal box? (how?)

Tried to install OWA on a test DMZ box, but it failed because it wants a
domain.  My DMZ boxes are in a workgroup.

Opinions, thoughts, suggestions?  Thanks

RE: Moving to Antigen

Title: Message



I have 
used both products on workstations and servers and found Norton Corporate 
Edition to be the better product. But I will say that I am currently using 
Norton and have not used NAI for about a year and a half. Might have 
improved.

Inheriting someone else's mess always stinks.
