RE: McAfee GroupShield 5.0 and Exchange 5.5 SP4

2002-04-23 Thread Van Otterloo, Brad

Groupsheild has worked great for us.  Simple install and it has been
blocking a lot of viruses.  I have no problems with it.

Any gotchas anyone one had with running McAfee GroupShield 5.0 on Exchange
5.5 SP4?  Management has backed me into the corner and I am forced to
finally install some type of anti-virus on the Email server.  Any tips,
tricks, hints, or allegations would be appreciated.

Message Size

2002-04-22 Thread Van Otterloo, Brad

I have some users that are trying to email files that are over 36MB in size.
That is above the Maximum Message Size that is set at this time.  They are
the type that will run to the higher ups in the company and cry to them to
get it changed.  

We only have a 256K connection to the Internet.

What do you have your message size set to and could you give some of the
reasoning behind the decision for that size?

Thanks.

RE: Looking Exchange server usage reporting tool

Not sure on price, but Spotlight on Exchange is nice.  Easy to setup and
easy on the eyes for viewing.

Subject: Looking Exchange server usage reporting tool


I am looking for a utility that can be used to generate statistical type
reports on Exchange server usage-- numbers of internal emails, external
emails (sent and received), top senders/receivers, etc...

I read about Sunbelt's MELIA but it looked like over-kill for my purposes.
Are there any purely reporting tools that are free or relatively inexpensive
that anyone can recommend?

TIA

Retrieve Message from .pst file

2002-01-31 Thread Van Otterloo, Brad

I have a user that has deleted an email from a .pst file where they store
important emails.  I know that the email is still in the .pst file until a
new email arrives and overwrites the area or the user compacts the .pst
file.  Is there some software that can retrieve this email?  It can be
freeware/shareware/licensed software.

Thanks

RE: ONStream backups

2002-01-31 Thread Van Otterloo, Brad

I've been using two of them to backup excahnge and 4 servers in our company
for over 1 1/2 years.  They have worked great and interfaced easily with
Backup Exec.  I have had only one tape that failed in a short amount of
time.  They rest have been great.  I would recommend them to anyone

Hi.
Does anyone have any experience with Onstream ADR50 backup drives?  I'm
looking at one to back up an Exch2K server, and some other Win2K servers
and their data.  Budget is extremely limited (what else is new), and
50GB of storage for under $700 looks pretty appealing.  

TIA,
Scott Yorga

RE: virus scan

2002-01-18 Thread Van Otterloo, Brad

Another reason this message shows up is if you have the checkmark made for
Find all macros and the word document has a macro in it.

I've had this with Groupshield, it's a feature. You need to configure the on
demand scan to not block the attachment '_??' Also, you'll need hotfix 7 and
need to configure the options regarding macros - don't select 'enable macro
heuristics' and 'find all macros'. I can't remember the article off the top
of my head but it was in the NAI knowledgebase

Hopefully that should resolve the problem

Subject: virus scan


I was told that this was not a virus and that it was a problem with the
detection message where no detection name is given, is an
error message that is given by the engine and misinterpreted by the GUI
product, not a detection by the DAT files. The files are now in
quarantine, so can i send out the file or is it infected with a virus?

I am running groupshield exchange.

This is the message we received in the event viewer:
The file testing.doc is infected with '_'. Detected with scan engine
4.1.60 DAT version 4.1.4181 from user Exchange running groupshield
