Exchange cached mode

[Scott Schneider]

Just looking for a general consensus. Remote road warriors, is it best
to have them use Exchange cached mode on an Exchange 2003 cluster with a
2003 Outlook client. We are upgrading our clients from Outlook 2002 and
are looking for best practices.

Any gotchas to using/not using cached mode?

Thanks

OWA

[Scott Schneider]

I am running Exchange 2003 SP2 on an active passive cluster. I can get into OWA 
and send new messages without a problem. 

When I attempt to forward  a message it errors out with the following

Internet Explorer cannot open the Internet site 
http://exchange/exchange/username/drafts/"name_of_the_email.EML 
<http://exchange/exchange/username/drafts/> 

Operation Aborted

When I attempt to reply to a message I get a "page cannot be found error" HTTP 
Error 404 File or Directory not found.

I am using IIS on the active node for the exchange virtual server, not a 
separate front end server.

Does anybody have any ideas on where I should look to troubleshoot?

Thanks

RE: OWA

[Scott Schneider]

I have found the answer. After some more testing I found the problem
stayed with IE7 only, IE6 worked fine, confirming the server end was OK.
 
I had to download the s/MIME control under Mail Security while in OWA..

Spiceworks plays nice with Firefox but is slow on IE. We also had
problems with remote scans which has been correctly with the recent
updates.

I've used Spiceworks and mostly liked it, but I seemed to continuously
have problems where it wouldn't finish a network scan, especially when
it is scanning remote office computers.  I also found in the past that
the web interface was painfully slow, but that may have improved.

 

Currently I use the free version of Lansweeper, which I like a lot.
They just released a new version with a lot of useful looking
improvements, but I haven't tried it yet.

Subject: Exchange 2010 in-house vs cloud

 

Our current hardware goes end of life this year. We are looking at
either upgrading our current 2003 Exchange to 2010 and replacing the
hardware it runs on, or outsourcing the Exchange portion to a cloud
service. We have about 10 Wintel servers and would incorporate Hyper V
as part of the upgrade, as I have other servers which also need to be
replaced this year.

 

What I have been trying to find is a general cost per user of hosted
versus in-house Exchange, and the average bandwidth per user required
for outsourced. Anybody know a decent site where I might find that info?

 

Cheers
