On Fri, Aug 20, 2010 at 8:14 AM, Richard Stovall rich...@gmail.com wrote: What about multiple domains? - You can add multiple domains as 'alias domains'. They behave similarly to multiple email domains in Exchange recipient policies. Just add the domain names and those email domains are available to anyone. I'd consider it for $dayjob, but we've got several users here with 4 or 5 email addresses in different domains from which they need to be able to send and receive independently of one another. I haven't dug too deeply, but on the surface it appears that those users would be charged 4 or 5 times the nominal per user fee. - In that case you would use 'groups'. Groups have email addresses but there are no charges for group email addresses. Add who ever you want to a group and the mail is routed. Does anyone know what Google Apps or the hosted Exchange services do in this situation. (I know I can add multiple domains in Google Apps, but I don't see how to isolate a user's a.com and b.com correspondence from one another without having different user accounts.) A year ago I set up Google Apps for the non-profit school where I volunteer, and it's been a huge success. There is only one email domain, and because it's K-12, it's totally free. If Google charged them $50 per user for it every year, they'd almost certainly be on SBS.

Server has two physical drives, OS on C: and Exchange on D:. D: is reporting bad sectors so can't image it. If I recall correctly, can't I get a backup of the stores then uninstall and reinstall Exchange on healthy drives and then restore the Information store?

Re: Exchange 2003 OWA works for some domain users but not all.
All accounts are Domain Users and in same OU. All admin accounts work, most domain user accounts but 2 out of 60 or so. Additionally there is one account that after entering https://mail.DomainName.com/Exchange/UserName and then supplying netBIOSDOmainName\Userid and password fails. But clear the explicit UserName and hit enter on the remaining implicit address, OWA shows the correct users OWA. Weird eh? Using IE8 and cache is cleared between each userName try.

Symantec has been heavy on the client and the server for quite a while. Avoid it if you can. It's particularly heinous on the server, IMHO.

Exchange 2000 OWA is open.
I just picked up a client that has a Windows 2000 environment with Exchange 2000,everything fully patched and running well. 150 users, everything is behind Netgear FVS328s WAN wide, there are VPNs to five remote sites and the domain is WAN wide. Employees occasionally connect via HTTP to Exchange OWA using Windows Integrated Authentication; no SSL. There is evidence in the Exchange security log that unwanted folks are trying to gain access via OWA and they want it to stop. I've been reviewing the IIS log for foreign IPs and adding those to the deny list but that doesn't seem to do the trick. The customer does have a license for a second Exchange server. The IIS lockdown tool has not been executed on the Exchange server. What would you recommend to reduce/eliminate OWAs exposure? Cheers. ~ Ninja Email Security with Cloudmark Spam Engine Gets Image Spam ~ ~ http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Ninja~

ISA 2000, ISA 2004, ISA 2006.

RE: Exchange 2000 OWA is open.
Thanks for the replies you guys. Very much appreciated. Cheers. -Original Message- From: Salvador Manzo [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, January 17, 2008 2:43 PM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: Re: Exchange 2000 OWA is open. Stephan, Require a VPN connection before allowing connection to OWA. OWA is just an application riding on top of a web server. So long as the web server is accessible, it _will_ get attacked.

RE: BUE Exchange Logs
Check that you have actually selected your Information Store. The Information Store must be backed up in order for the logs to be cleared. Cheers. From: Roger Wright [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, January 15, 2008 9:31 PM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: BUE Exchange Logs I've been playing with Backup Exec and it seems to be doing a good job, however, my Exchange logs are not getting flushed when I do a full backup of the server. Is this a simple configuration setting I missed somewhere?

When I came back she had an interesting question for me. My home page is www.msexchangeteam.com (the Microsoft Exchange Team blog site) She asked me why I was looking at m sex change team.com I guess I was caught in the act! -troy ~ Ninja Email Security with Cloudmark Spam Engine Gets Image Spam ~ ~ http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Ninja~ ~ Ninja Email Security with Cloudmark Spam Engine Gets Image Spam ~ ~ http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Ninja~
