RE: Packet filtering stops SMTP

[Purviance, Chad]

This may be obvious but Don also asked "Can you resolve DNS names?" I would
look at the Queue (on the IMS Connector itself) and see what reason it is
listing for non-delivery. If the message is "Host un-known" validate you can
ping by name and connect via port 25.

If the message is "network issues" or the like then review your outbound and
inbound Filters. 

Also, it is not being updated but http://proxyfaq.networkgods.com/ provides
some excellent information on Proxy2.0. I personally use the IIS SMTP as a
relay and leave Exchange pure with a Forward to the IIS box approach.

Sorry for replying directly instead of to the list, Don.

You've hit on the point that I don't understand. When I enable the
packet filtering, I can telnet on port 25 from my Proxy/SMTP relay
machine to my home-account's ISP and manually create an email using
the SMTP commands. But if I send an email from Outlook, it goes from
exchange, to my Proxy/SMTP box, but never gets delivered to my ISP, it
just sits in the SMTP Queue directory. I'm pretty sure I also
connected via telnet from my home and created an email, but no
external email will comes in if I have the packet filtering on. That's
when I tried searching the knowledge base. I came up with articles
Q176947 and Q252877, both of which seemed promising but did not work.
I'm at a loss as to what is going on.

Can you telnet to port 25 from the outside?  Can you telnet from your
mail

Sorry, Don, but maybe you should read the manual. When you run packet
filtering software (or hardware), it stops everything except what you
specifically allow. That means if I add a filter for port 25 (SMTP),
it will
then allow traffic to pass on port 25. So far on my box, I've allowed
traffic on port 25, 80, and whatever ports Ident and DNS use, but SMTP
traffic both in and out still get stopped. Anyone else got any ideas?

Uhhh...  Proxy is a packet filtering software.  A poor one, but that's

it is.  As far as your mail problem, sounds like your filtering
everything
and not allowing any connections to port 25 for SMTP.

Does anyone out there use the Packet Filtering that's built into Proxy
Server 2.0? I'm trying to get packet filtering set up, because
security is
like, a good thing, but every time I turn on filtering, all incoming
and
outgoing SMTP mail stops. I have added the DNS, SMTP, and Ident
filters (as
per Q176947), but still get no SMTP, so I still can't turn the packet
filtering on. Anyone deal with this or have any ideas?

Well I tried it and it worked! 

I added filters on *.zip and *.exe.

The *.exe filter I set to quarrantine, notify, and delete.

The *.ZIP filter I set to quarrantine, NOT notify, and DETECT.

Now when sending or receiving a ZIP attachment that contains an EXE, I
get notified (even though I set it to no) that Antigen detected a ZIP
file, but the ZIP file is passed unmolested to the recipient. I do not
get notified that the ZIP contains an EXE, so apparently the specific
ZIP filter overrides any other filters.

Cool!

So I'll unhumble myself from last weeks discussion where I seemed to be
wrong about Antigen not being able to pass EXEs in ZIPs if EXEs were
filtered. Sheesh!...Like I'd be wrong about something! I knew it all

hosting OWA (IE you didn't allow anonymous) If you don't want to allow
anonymous access to the OWA page then I believe that is your lot.

OR, upgrade to Exchange2000 and It will pass the credentials in an attempt
to find the mailbox (If memory serves).

Sorry for the late response - 

Where I stand right now is that when you type in mail.xo.com, I am
immediately greeted with the challenge box and input user ID/ password. Then
I get the OWA logon, then another challenge with the user ID already
entered.

What I would like to have is mail.xo.com point to the OWA logon, input
mailbox alias, receive the challenge and then email.

Thanks.

Just do a properties of the default.htm document on IIS server which is
hosting mail.xo.com.  Tell it to point to the /exchange directory, a
redirection.  Then it will point to mail.xo.com/exchange without having to
add the exchange.
Is that what you wanted to know?

Agreed that the workaround may sound easy but becomes more difficult when I
add SSL and remove port 80 completely from inbound traffic. Besides, I have
been screwing around with this and figured out half, I want to know the
other.

Do you know what the KB article is or has anyone else actually done this
successfully?

Appreciate the help!

As you know by default OWA is domainname/exchange, there is a microsoft
article that is floating around in the knowledge base that tells you how to
change that /exchange directory to something else which you can change to
just the default website etc, I think though the easiest way to do it is
just to setup a redirection so that when your users go to email.domain.com
IIS redirects them to email.domain.com/exchange saves stuffing around :)

Setting Default Rights for Calendars of all users to reviewer.

[Purviance, Chad]

Hi all,

    I
have a client who would like to set the default view on all users calendars to
reviewer (1000 users) I know how to do this from a client & as an admin
using the service account and profiles.

 

What I am looking for is a method to do
this automatically OR via a script, EXE, Profile tool, etc. Anything
better then user side setup. ;-)

 

Thanks,

 

Chad P.

It's really not all that involved. First, ask your Internet service provider
to mail you an Unsubscribing Kit. Then follow these directions.

The kit will most likely be the standard no-fault type. Depending on
requirements, System A and/or System B can be used. When operating System A,
depress lever and a plastic dalkron unsubscriber will be dispensed through
the slot immediately underneath. When you have fastened the adhesive lip,
attach connection marked by the large "X" outlet hose. Twist the
silver-coloured ring one inch below the connection point until you feel it
lock.

The kit is now ready for use. The Cin-Eliminator is activated by the small
switch on the lip. When securing, twist the ring back to its initial
condition, so that the two orange lines meet. Disconnect. Place the dalkron
unsubscriber in the vacuum receptacle to the rear. Activate by pressing the
blue button.

The controls for System B are located on the opposite side. The red release
switch places the Cin-Eliminator into position; it can be adjusted manually
up or down by pressing the blue manual release button. The opening is
self-adjusting. To secure after use, press the green button, which
simultaneously activates the evaporator and returns the Cin-Eliminator to
its storage position.

You may log off if the green exit light is on over the evaporator. If the
red light is illuminated, one of the Cin-Eliminator requirements has not
been properly implemented. Press the "List Guy" call button on the right of
the evaporator. He will secure all facilities from his control panel.

To use the Auto-Unsub, first undress and place all your clothes in the
clothes rack. Put on the velcro slippers located in the cabinet immediately
below. Enter the shower, taking the entire kit with you. On the control
panel to your upper right upon entering you will see a "Shower seal" button.
Press to activate. A green light will then be illuminated immediately below.
On the intensity knob, select the desired setting. Now depress the
Auto-Unsub activation lever. Bathe normally.

The Auto-Unsub will automatically go off after three minutes unless you
activate the "Manual off" override switch by flipping it up. When you are
ready to leave, press the blue "Shower seal" release button. The door will
open and you may leave. Please remove the velcro slippers and place them in
their container.

If you prefer the ultrasonic log-off mode, press the indicated blue button.
When the twin panels open, pull forward by rings A & B. The knob to the
left, just below the blue light, has three settings: low, medium or high.
For normal use, the medium setting is suggested.

After these settings have been made, you can activate the device by
switching to the "ON" position the clearly marked red switch. If during the
unsubscribing operation, you wish to change the settings, place the "manual
off" override switch in the "OFF" position. You may now make the change and
repeat the cycle. When the green exit light goes on, you may log off and
have lunch. Please close the door behind you.

RE: OWA box doubling as an SMTP relay host?...

[Purviance, Chad]

Making the following assumptions:
1. You are running IIS 4.0 or IIS 5.0 on the OWA box
2. You have the latest service pack & hot fixes.

I personally use the SMTP relay services of IIS on my front-end OWA boxes as
this keeps the Exchange server from being directly exposed to the Internet.
It also prevents the odd issue of ESMTP connections through PIX firewalls
(were SMTPFIXUP is being used).

The relay setup in IIS is pretty straight forward.

In a recent dialogue there was a pointer to the site
 as a reference as to why POP3
connectors for Exchange are crap.

I took a look there (don't need any POP3 stuff but just wanted to check out
the site) and I saw an article with instructions on setting up the SMTP
service on an IIS box as a relay to/from MSExchange.  We have an OWA box
already live but with the SMTP and other unused stuff currently shut down.
Seems to me I once heard someone say that the SMTP service on an NT box
can't be used once OWA is installed and running.  Is this true?  Or is it
even a good idea to consider this OWA server doubling as a mail relay (while
other options are being considered)?  Any pro's / con's / issues /
warnings?

You said you can Telnet out on Port 25 but you didn’t say if it was by

The messages in Queue have a failure status. What is it?? IE Host unknown,

what is going on.

 

The SMTP fix-up will kill you on Exchange to Exchange SMTP connections,
but not non-exchange. Kill it or but a non ESMTP server in front as a relay like
IIS.

 

Try TELNET 209.43.20.203 25 

 

Then 

 

Try TELNET MAIL.IQUEST.NET 25

 

The responses should be 220 iquest3.iquest.net ESMTP

 

If the first works and not the second, you probably have a DNS issue on

automate forwarding all mails in a mailbox to an ext a ddre ss





 





Since
you have these e-mails in a .pst file, I think you can create a rule which
would forward the message to his new e-mail address. Although  normally
rules would run when the messages arrive, you can use them in the inbox (RUN
NOW).





 





The
challage would be to create a rule which would cause each and every e-mail to
be forwarded. Well, it may not be possible to create a rule to include all, but
maybe you can create more than a few. For example, if you  create a rule
which includes "SENT TO", you may clear most of the messages.
Looking at the messages you may come up with some 'creative' rules :)

Hi Williams,





 





I have setup
the custom recipient for his New Zealand address sometime ago and using
the Alternate





recipient to forward
mails to the new address.  Now he is requesting me to forward all his old
mails





to the new address. 
At first I have export his mailbox to a personal folder and ask the
administrator





at New Zealand to
download it from out ftp server.  The problems lies that Waikato Univ in
New Zealand





is using Mac and have
problem converting the pst file to Mac format.





 





Going into Outlook and
forward mails one by one is tedious, he must has thoundsands of mails.





Is there any tools
available for me to do this?  Otherwise the option left is for me to look
for a Mac,





install Outlook in Mac,
export out to Mac format then send to him again.  In Singapore here we





hardly used any Mac and I
do not have one within the comp centre here.

Create a custom recipient
with his New Zealand address.





Go to his mailbox
properties, Delivery Options, and select the custom recipient as an alternate
recipient.





Hide both from the GAL.





 





Exchange2000:





Replace 'custom

Go to AD Users and

RE: OT (sort of): Exchange Utilities and Platform Statistics

Subject:OT (sort of): Exchange Utilities and Platform Statistics

Afternoon to All!

I'm hoping some of you on the list can assist me with a question or two on
MS Exchange. Our company, currently on GroupWise, is looking to make a
migration to a different messaging environment. Some of the reasons behind
this involve doing "blast" fax & e-mail services internally, costing those
services back to our internal clients (a.k.a revenue generation for us), as
well as utilizing (IMHO) a more effective platform for unified messaging
services (integration of fax and voicemail resources).

So, I need to find two things:

* First, our management is pretty well sold on Exchange, but is questioning
wether Novell still has enough market share and product resources to be a
messaging player. Putting bias aside for a sec, does anyone know of
statistics on how many seats each major product has in the market today
(e.g. Notes, Exchange, GroupWise, SendMail (unix/linux derivatives))? Any
pointers on where one might find them would be helpful.

* Second, does anyone know where I might find Fax-over-IP software that will
integrate with an Exchange environment? I would normally think you could
find connectors to run Fax traffic from this resource through your company's
PBX or Telecom switch, but ours won't currently support it. I'm open to all
options, including outsourced solutions like Fax2Me.com and Proteus, but
would like to focus on FOIP software that runs with exchange.

Any assistance you could provide would be most helpful.

TIA,

Steve

RE: Problem resolving the name of an Exchange 5.5 server when set ting up a new user

[Purviance, Chad]

Try doing a NET VIEW \\IP or NET VIEW \\Servername 

If IP works (lists shares) and Servername doesn't, you have a NETBIOS name
resolution issue. Either setup WINS or preferably setup DNS with Host (A)
records for your Exchange server, Domain controllers, Domain name (same IP
as controllers), etc.

If neither work, you have NETBIOS blocked or disabled (being Win2K do NOT
turn off Netbios over IP)

Let us know,

RE: Unwanted server ...

/Bias Plug
Also, I build my labs in VMWare workstation so they stay clean, you can
nicely run 4 virtual servers live on one box with or without external
network connectivity.

Then, if the other members "need" an AD server to mess with, you can copy
the folder yours is in and let them destroy the virtual server copy ...
leaving yours intact.
/bias plug

Doesn't answer your question, but it may prevent it after the rebuild and
yes you can build VMWare servers in the live network and snap them out to
test ... 30 day eval, best $300 I have spent on the lab. I have now replaced
my 3 lab Compaq 1850 servers with 1 Dual PIII with 1.5gig ram. :-)

Hello,

My first post here - hope I don't break any rules.  

We have a lab setup that we're testing an Exchange 2000 upgrade in -
others are also using this lab, so if we have a machine one day, it
could be gone the next.  That happened to us mid-testing adding a new
server to the organization and moving mailboxes to it.  Now we can't get
rid of the bogus server because some mailboxes had been moved to it.
Anyone know of a way to forcibly remove a server from an organization?
Do I just bite the bullet and rebuild from ground zero?

RE: Moving an Exchange 5.5 server to a new domain.

[Purviance, Chad]

Another thought, unless the content of the existing domain is an issue.

1. Build the new Win2K DC as an NT4 BDC in the old domain.
2. Promote him to PDC
3. Build a second BDC (could be a desktop) and /net accounts sync
4. Pull the second BDC off the wire during migration as safety
5. Upgrade the new PDC to Active Directory with proper DNS

Test Test Test

I would recommend a lot of testing off-line first, but that is the basic of
the upgrade procedure. Done correctly you do not need to move the Exchange
server at all and the users will never know they moved.

Again, done right. If you lack the experience, it may be worth your time to
bring in a good consultant to assist as design is 90% of a good AD ... maybe
95%

Why not just do the following:

1)create a trust between the two domains
2)follow and test the service account migration instructions in Q266041
3)change the Exchange server's domain membership

No need to take it offline or run DR procedures.  So long as both domains
are in place and the trust exists, you just have to make sure the primary NT
account for each mailbox actually matches what it should (currently) be.

Subject: Moving an Exchange 5.5 server to a new domain.


I've searched the archives, I've even searched the KBase, and TechNet but I
haven't found a good answer to this dilemma I am going to face in the next
few months.  So I have to ask the experts.

I have a client that is going to create a Windows 2000 domain to replace the
current NT 4.0 domain.  The plan right now is to have both domains running
concurrently, and as we replace the workstations, have them join and use the
new domain.  I plan on creating the exact same user names as they currently
exist, but here is the real challenge.  The PM wants to move the current
Exchange 5.5 SP4, NT 4 member server from its' current domain into the
Windows 2000 domain.  Of course we will activate the Active Directory
connector and point all of the mailboxes to the accounts in the new domain.

The plan to accomplish this looks something like this:
1.  Stop all Exchange services.
2.  Change the startup configuration to manual.
3.  Remove the server from the current domain.
4.  Add it to the new W2K domain.
5.  Change the service account to the service account in the new domain.
6.  Start the Exchange services.
Of course we will do an offline backup of the exchange databases and logs.

The reason the PM is looking at doing it this way, is because the client
will be undergoing a migration to their MRP/ERP environment and she wants to
minimize the trauma as much as possible.  Otherwise we would scrap the idea
of moving the server from one domain into another, and just migrate them to
Exchange 2000.

After boring you with all of this background information, I come to the crux
of the matter.  Will this work?  Please point me to the correct resources
that will help me make this happen as painlessly as possible, if this plan
is totally bogus.  I have talked with a couple of my colleagues about this
and they can't see why it won't work, but they don't have the level of
expertise that you all have.

Yes, It can be
sent to anyone as if it is coming from you on the FROM: line, and no you can't
prevent it because SMTP doesn't require proof of sender. BUT, if they

 The reply address is  [EMAIL PROTECTED] which is probably a
 collector of good addresses IE they hit reply to complain and the real
 sender validate it as a good address.
 The first server appears to be from a host at 202.110.213.141
 bounced off an open relay at 206.162.177.235. I am not taking the time to research,
 but you can at www.samspade.org if you
 like.


 

With the reply being a .RU I is another fine
piece of Asia SPAM ... not the canned variety.

 

Unfortunately, your best bet may be to prepare
a canned response stating the e-mail didn't originate from you and the real
information can be found in the header. The chances of getting off their list is
minimal, this is how they make their money.

Yes, It can be sent to
anyone as if it is coming from you on the FROM: line, and no you can't prevent
it because SMTP doesn't require proof of sender. BUT, if they look at the
headers they will see it never touches your server so you can at least prove it
wasn't you. This unfortunately is a very common method to get the nasty
responses sent to someone else.

RE: Restore of Data Drive

[Purviance, Chad]

First, you shouldn't loose the Volume if you lost a Raid 5 set.

Second, yes. If you have lost the Database, this is an IS DR situation and
if the Directory was there too ... then you are restoring the entire server
BUT it should play your logs back so you shouldn't loose anything Assuming
you did a hot backup with NTBACKUP or an Agent.

Our Exchange 2000 server had a power failure.  The

C Drive - Win2000 O/S - RAID 0 - Exchange logs
D Drive - RAID 5 - Exchange Store

The D Drive (RAID 5) partition is damaged and requires
a rebuild.  I have performed several recovery
procedures for Exchange but always with either the

Modifying AD with a CSV Import (Or a proper CSV to LDIF script)

First, apology if this has been answered a few times, I spent the last 2
hours going through my archive, found some great info on William's wife and
Performance errors but not a method to automate the creation of the LDIF
from a CSV for LDIFDE.

Basic issue is an NT4 to AD upgrade, the Last name and First name fields are
blank and the NAME field isn't the Display name. In Ex5.5 this would have
been easy BUT this is a GroupeWise / NDS site with NT as app servers :-(

I have heard of using the CSVDE to export, modify with Excel, use a Word doc
with Mail merge to create the LDIF, then import with LDIFDE ... but I hope
there are other cleaner methods.

Nick,

    Not
necessarily "no real purpose" many external IE not owned by you.
Mail servers will use your MX record to find the Mail eXchanger
for your domain, this is its purpose. I have found it is ALWAYS better to
properly define the host (A) record for your mail server, and the mail
exchanger (MX) correctly pointing to the host. This is DNS 101 rules IMHO.

Obviously, it is a
special record that points to your mail server, but what it really represents,
I think, is a route for SMTP traffic.  If you have multiple servers
accepting email for an SMTP domain, MX records can be assigned costs with a
relative relationship to assign priorities to certain mail routes.





 





In a single server
environment it may not seem to make much sense to have a separate DNS resource
record to indicate where the Mail Exchange Server is.  But some companies
have multiple routes, some companies have email hosted elsewhere.

I am trying to upgrade an NT4.0 Exchange 5.5 sp6
server that is in use full time to a Windows 2000 Exchange 2000 machine.

The exchange 5.5 server has been used for some 5
years with no problems. The old server was misconfigured to with a different
netbios name from mx record, with aliases in the user mailboxes.

I ran the exchange server migration wizard and
migrated the messages to the new mailboxes without errors or warnings.


What I have and would like to know... 

oldserver 


netbios
= some_name 
dns =
another_name.subnet.domain.edu 
mx =
mail.subnet.domain.edu 

newserver 


netbios
= newname 
dns =
newname.subnet.domain.edu 

 

I would like to move the mx record and start getting
the mail delievered to the new server...am I going to have problems?

Is there a way to syncronize the 2 servers so that
mail is delievered between to 2 servers to the old and new mailboxes?

I am afraid that I might miss some messages durring
the mx record changeover and will need to syncronize them. 

I am also worried about the mailbox rules people have
defined.

will assume the following:

The attachment is an imbedded OLE object
like a picture or spreadsheet and not a file.

The reply address is sending as RTF which
would include the object.

When sending, the address is listed as
basic text or Outlook decide and Outlook chooses basic text.

 

Now, if she is attaching an actual file
from the attach file option ... I am stumped. ;-)

RidNextRid - How to increment??

[Purviance, Chad]

Title: Message









Hi all,

    This is more AD then
Exchange but I am at my wits end and banging my head on the monitor isn't
helping anymore.

 

I need to increment the RID count on a DC either before moving to AD or
immediately after the DCPromo. 

 

Background:

Former NDS4NT integrated domain, when we pull the virgin BDC all SIDS (and
RIDS) are unique but the RID count is approx 6000 less then the last RID used
causing conflict as we begin to add users.

The RidNextRid value is a System only and I
have attempted modify with ADSIEdit and LDIFDE import
logged in as system (cmd.exe as logon.src method) to
no avail.

 

PSS has been called and escalated, but no solution yet.

 

Any help appreciated.

RE: delay when sending messages from exchange 5.5 to exchange 200 0

[Purviance, Chad]

We witnessed this also, a bizarre approach but mail bound for Exch2K from
the outside IE Internet, would queue on the 5.5 side until a message was
sent from an Exch2K mailbox to an Internet address. Then all Internet
inbound mail would stream into the Exch2K store. Our delay was "until you
sent a message" the oddity was anyone could send the message and everyone
would get their inbound.

We only stayed this way for 24hours as me migrated over quick, new server
same site, no value in staying on 5.5.

But try the approach, send a few messages into Exch2K from Inet, wait 20
mins, send ANY message to ANYone on the net and see if the queues clear.

My solution was to move everyone over and decom the 5.5 box.

NO, it still has delays when receiving messages from outside the corporate

Multiple as I am a consultant, but as for Dell.

We have had 3 SavA server down issues with Dell Raid controllers (Adaptec

sets as the Mirrored sets on the same channels were fine. One didn't mount
the RAID5 container because TCP/IP didn't come up (bad 3com switch) and the
others lost the data on the set from corruption.

Mostly with the 6450, 2550, and 2500.

RE: E2K Cluster

I have many working nicely but would agree whole heartedly. If you must have
99.999 then this is the way to go on very good fiber equipment.

BUT, using the Compaq approach of multiple identical servers attached with
Fiber and no local storage (boot from the SAN) with an extra server online
and hot. Allows you to quickly (under 5 mins) move the Server (all LUNS) to
the online box and get the server back up.

Just my $20 ... opps 2 cents

Hardware is key.  Top quality only.

Active/Active clusters are excessively annoying and limited (1900 users
per node supported).  Active/Passive clusters in my opinion are the
better way to go if faced with clustering.  Overall, they are
unneccessary, expensive, harder to recover in the event of a disaster
(the nodes share the database, unlike a *real* cluster), and lower your
ROI.

Just my thoughts.

Subject: Life Insurance Spam with
strange addressing

 

 

Has anyone seen a recent crop of Life Insurance spam
coming in with strange addressing? Last week we received the 2 emails. Normally
I wouldn't be concerned with spam like this, but if I look at the addressing it
is coming from a valid address (of course it has to be of two executives...)
and then delivering to staff.  The first message reads from
[EMAIL PROTECTED], to [EMAIL PROTECTED] but was delivered to staff. The second
message reads from [EMAIL PROTECTED], to [EMAIL PROTECTED], and again was delivered
to staff. The thing that really makes me wonder is that [EMAIL PROTECTED] no
longer works here and her email address is hidden from the address book.

The headers indicate that the messages are coming
from our mail server, but obviously we aren't sending our self spam. Is there a
way to spoof this? Possibly a worm?

I've found references to the subject lines on Google,
but no one mentions the addressing issue, only that it is spam. 

These are the subjects: 
$250,000
policy for only $8.50/month! 
Best
Life Insurance, Lowest Cost.

Umm ... no, exactly opposite.

The config data is written to BOTH the drives and the controller. I would
NEVER take the Raid HW with me on a Dead server with an identical Hot unit
on a new Dell or ANY Compaq.

Old Dell raid controllers ONLY wrote the config in the controller .. if you
lost a controller you lost the set with or without good data on the drive.

My advise is if you have a RAID card, swap it along with the drives. The
card contains a lot of Config info regarding your arrays, and it is nice to
bring that with you.

That's what I was saying. I guess the only way to find out is to try it.

If all hardware was identical, I think you could pull it off, as a general
rule w2k doesn't like being moved, unless doing a rebuild.

A co-worker & I were discussing what IF's the other day. One of the question
that came up was. 
What if the win2k Exchange 2k server had a hardware failure like the cpu
burned up,but the drives were still ok. Could we move the drives out of that
server & into another server (same model & hardware) We went around & around
on this. We still don't have a 100% yes or no. What do you all think?
