Just wondering about security and other questions but didn't know how to

Using it here.

 

Works great, especially when used with SkyDrive.

RE: Office 365

Our Exchange 2003 has ActiveSync that has about 35
ipad/iphone/tablet/droids attached to it.

We use blat to bounce emails off our internal server, we would want to
be able to do something like that going forward.

We have no sharepoint currently so Office apps are good on the cloud as
long as the data files are able to be saved to the Network drives in
house.

We would want some public folder type access.

We use SQL mail to send some not customer related emails and would want
to be able to continue that going forward.

Printers, switches, and Firewalls sent smtp traffic through the internal
email server.  We would like to continue doing that in the future.

427 computers, 250 employees with mailboxes

Active Directory 2008.

Hope that answers your questions??

Would want the ability to encrypt email on demand and per policy.

Re: Office 365

2013-04-03 Thread Bill Songstad

We use it.  It is stable and available.  We don't always get the most
responsive service if something minor goes wrong.  They have a system
based on how many people are without mail to prioritize responses.  I
have no knowledge of the security of the service, but I imagine it is
as safe as connecting to your private server over the interwebs.  If
you are a gui person, you will want to brush up on your powershell.
Many tasks that you could do in the gui locally are much easier or
only doable via powershell.

We have users using outlook 2010, 2007 and OWA.  Huge pipe to the
internet.  So I'm not sure how it would perform over a marginal
internet connection.

RE: Office 365

2013-04-03 Thread Mike Hoffman

You might need to look at integration with your current setup and if you need 
to integrate the email sign-on with the domain account. You can co-exist 
current email services with O365 (with a few issues). You can now get public 
folders but there are a few slight differences. If you have an existing (or ISP 
hosted) domain then you can use that for outgoing device mail rather than using 
a mailbox. To get all the full features you need to start planning on using 
Office 2013 - so that means windows 7/8 on the desktop - but you can move to 
that over time.

Not sure about encryption as we have not yet looked at that feature.

Re: Office 365

2013-04-03 Thread Bill Songstad

Yes, 99% of our users use OWA primarily.It is the flavor that
comes with Exchange 2010 I think.  Pretty robust, but those that
manage calendars a lot stick to their guns on standard Outlook.
Definitely some interface differences to get used to, but the
functionality all seems to be there if not the snappyness of local
Outlook.

We are looking to migrate to 2010 this year...but if the Cloud is just
as good and Exchange 2010 and economical I am willing to entertain
putting my mailboxes on the cloud, along with their public folders.

If it is a dumb idea I will continue with my 2010 migration.

For this sized environment you are much better off using SBS 2011 Essentials as 
it has Office 365 single sign on integration.  It’s a plugin that keeps the

SBS 2011E will cover your storage requirements as well.

Hi folks.  Just fishing for input here. I've quoted a solution to client with 
two options. One is to purchase a new server/storage platform and have their 
email and file sharing services local - eg SBS (currently on SBS 2008).
They are small - 25 users, 4 locations.

I also quoted Office 365 on the E1 or E3 plan, leaving some local storage at 
each site with a logon DC.

However, from what I read, if we want to use 365 with AD FS to allow single 
sign on and internal/external domain sync, we would need to build up to 4 
additional servers(see below) to allow this.
1) Computer to run AD sync tool
2) 2 AD FS servers for load balancing (or use existing DC)
3) AD FS Proxy 1 to 3 servers in an extranet

Is that the only way to implement 365 by adding more servers and dedicating 
them to these roles, or do you not use the AD FS to allow single sign on, etc. ?

Thanks for any input.

RE: Speaking of Office 365

2012-07-23 Thread Mike Hoffman

What you would be looking for would be the Server 2012 Essentials product (new 
name for SBS 2011 Essentials). This would be one server on one site doing the 
AD/Office 365 Integration ‘Lite’ and then you should be able to use a 
foundation or essentials server at each site using a remote access technology.

Bearing in mind that the feature set has not been fully announced you might 
even be able to do Direct Access rather than dedicated VPN site-to-site for 
file access, sharing and permissions, and the only issue might be a delay in an 
on-premise password change replicating to the cloud hosted exchange. If they go 
beyond 25 users then they would simply upgrade to Server Standard 2012 and keep 
the ‘integration component’.

If you want on-premise exchange then you can still go with SBS2011 and there 
should be an upgrade path to Server 2012 with full exchange on the same box – 
but the details of this without virtualising bits is still a bit sketchy.

Re: Speaking of Office 365

2012-07-23 Thread Don Kuhlman

Thanks Mike. It's sounding like we may need a small virtual environment, to 
allow building  at least one extra server and creating a DMZ using existing 
network and server hardware if we can't use the 2012 box for all the needs of 
connecting users to Office 365.
I want to do away with internal Exchange since the last two outages I've had to 
resolve were Exchange related (low disk, other weirdness).

The idea of getting rid of the VPN tunnels sounds good as well to me - one less 
point of failure.

You don't need a separate machine for either dirsync or adfs. It is, indeed,

Getting ready to migrate a small office environment to office 365. Domain is 
2008 R2, only 10 users. I'm reading through all the documentation and 
specifically looking at the requirement for a separate machine to host the 
Directory Synchronization tool. Anyone here do this yet with a small office? 
Just curious as to the load on the box. I'm going to create a VM for this but 
see that the minimum requirements are 4G RAM and 70G of disk space. That seems 
high to me for something like this in a very small environment. Curious to hear 
what others have seen after doing this in a similar environment.

Also just starting to read about single sign-on. So using the AD Sync tool 
doesn't give you single-sign on? It just gets your users and groups up to 
Office 365? For what purpose, if the credentials are synched? That's what I 
don't understand yet, but I'm not done reading yet, so maybe that will come. So 
if you need AD FS for single sign-on, how was the process?

Re: Office 365 and AD synchronization

2012-06-28 Thread Steve Kradel

I will vigorously agree with this... a cluster for handling ADFS2 load for
basic sign-on to SaaS is very rarely necessary, but you almost always do
want to be able to patch and reboot without making unavailable all the
stuff that now absolutely depends on federation/SSO.

RE: Office 365 and AD synchronization

2012-06-27 Thread David Lum

So if you need AD FS for single sign-on, how was the process?

This will be a poor technical explanation, but hopefully helpful:

We use SSO for our expense reporting, and how it works for us is we have an IIS 
server that handles the SSO function via certificate with us and our vendor. 
The cert sits on our IIS server and the corresponding cert sits in the target 
environment. The IIS server is in our trusted sites zone which allows the 
domain credentials to get passed to the IIS server. The target side trusts our 
IIS server (trust is misleading here because it's the cert that allows access 
not a domain trust, but I digress..).

The user experience is they go to our SSO website and they have a dropdown of 
what SSO site to connect to click connect and away they go, no prompting for 
credentials.

RE: Office 365 and AD synchronization

2012-06-27 Thread Mike Hoffman

You should not be looking at SSO for just 10 users with office 365 as you 
really need a 100% uptime connection (not 99.99%). We looked at this with small 
clients and putting in a separate server for the sync component is over the 
top. The build in sync tool is a complete solution build for big enterprises.

If you simply want 10 users to be able to do email and share logon passwords 
for both services (Local AD and O365) then SBS Essentials has a plugin which is 
a much simpler solution.

RE: Which Office 365 version - was Office 365 and AD synchronization

2012-06-27 Thread Mike Hoffman

If a client is used to an SBS solution then they will expect something other 
than public forum based support. We put clients on E-plans even for a single 
mailbox for just that reason. Also you cannot migrate from a P to an E, so if 
they think they might grow then they need an E plan.

E3 includes Microsoft Office Pro Plus - so if you already have Office 2010 then 
you do not need it. If you have Office 2003 then you do as you need the latest 
version for the full functionality. You can get away with 2007 for lots of 
features, but when 15 comes out then they will need to upgrade.

Re: Which Office 365 version - was Office 365 and AD synchronization

Sure no problem. Going to go with E3 specifically because of this:

Please note: with E1 you can only view Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and 
OneNote files online. With E3 you can both edit and view these files 
online.

This was a big selling point for the E3 plan. Also in our situation the 
client is non-profit, so the prices are significantly reduced.

Hi Chris, do you mind me asking what plan you're looking at?   I was 
thinking the same for a small business client, moving them from internally 
hosted SBS 2008 to 365 Plan E1 ($8/month/per user).  I see the P1 or E3 
plans too, but not sure if E3 is worth it for about 18 users.

Thanks

Getting ready to migrate a small office environment to office 365. Domain 
is 2008 R2, only 10 users. I'm reading through all the documentation and 
specifically looking at the requirement for a separate machine to host the 
Directory Synchronization tool. Anyone here do this yet with a small 
office? Just curious as to the load on the box. I'm going to create a VM 
for this but see that the minimum requirements are 4G RAM and 70G of disk 
space. That seems high to me for something like this in a very small 
environment. Curious to hear what others have seen after doing this in a 
similar environment. 

Also just starting to read about single sign-on. So using the AD Sync tool 
doesn't give you single-sign on? It just gets your users and groups up to 
Office 365? For what purpose, if the credentials are synched? That's what 
I don't understand yet, but I'm not done reading yet, so maybe that will 
come. So if you need AD FS for single sign-on, how was the process?

Sorry Dave, should have clarified. Not really looking for a technical 
explanation of single sign-on. Very familiar with what it is and how it 
works. We have PING for SAML and use it with a few different external 
partners, so I'm familiar with the process. Was looking for people who 
have experienced setting up AD FS with Office 365. That I haven't done

“So if you need AD FS for single sign-on, how was the process?”
 
This will be a poor technical explanation, but hopefully helpful:
 
We use SSO for our expense reporting, and how it works for us is we have 
an IIS server that handles the SSO function via certificate with us and 
our vendor. The cert sits on our IIS server and the corresponding cert 
sits in the “target” environment. The IIS server is in our “trusted sites” 
zone which allows the domain credentials to get passed to the IIS server. 
The target side trusts our IIS server (trust is misleading here because 
it’s the cert that allows access not a domain trust, but I digress..).
 
The user experience is they go to our SSO website and they have a dropdown 
of what SSO site to connect to click connect and away they go, no 
prompting for credentials.

You should not be looking at SSO for just 10 users with office 365 as you really need a 100% uptime connection (not 99.99%). We looked at this with small clients and putting in a separate server for the sync component is over the top. The build in sync tool is a complete solution build for big enterprises. If you simply want 10 users to be able to do email and share logon passwords for both services (Local AD and O365) then SBS Essentials has a plugin which is a much simpler solution.

Mike thanks for the reply. Can you give me a little more on that? 
Specifically when you say that you need 100% uptime and that it's over the

RE: Office 365 and AD synchronization

2012-06-27 Thread Michael B. Smith

You don't need a separate machine for either dirsync or adfs. It is, indeed, 
recommended. It's also recommend to have a load-balanced adfs proxy, but for 
99.99% of clients, that is just bollocks.

Subject: Office 365 and AD synchronization

Getting ready to migrate a small office environment to office 365. Domain is 
2008 R2, only 10 users. I'm reading through all the documentation and 
specifically looking at the requirement for a separate machine to host the 
Directory Synchronization tool. Anyone here do this yet with a small office? 
Just curious as to the load on the box. I'm going to create a VM for this but 
see that the minimum requirements are 4G RAM and 70G of disk space. That seems 
high to me for something like this in a very small environment. Curious to hear 
what others have seen after doing this in a similar environment.

Also just starting to read about single sign-on. So using the AD Sync tool 
doesn't give you single-sign on? It just gets your users and groups up to 
Office 365? For what purpose, if the credentials are synched? That's what I 
don't understand yet, but I'm not done reading yet, so maybe that will come. So

Thank you Michael.  Sounds like it's in the pipeline possibly.  Tbh it's not a 
huge deal just a bit annoying that licenses can't be re-assigned between your 
business units.

Have to say I'm really liking Office 365 so far.  I was a little wary but one 
of our sites is trialling it and I haven't heard a squeak from them since it 
went live.

I've used it during the beta period. Webster has just signed up.

Now that it's out of Beta I'm looking closely at Office 365.

Did anyone participate in the beta or have other experience with the product?

RE: Office 365 - anyone onboard yet?

2011-06-28 Thread Webster

I guess they were slammed today.  The site was slow at times but everything
is working.  I downloaded all the software they said I needed.  I have Lync
2010 on my PC now and have my OL2010 setup to receive mail.  The only
slowness so far is that Lync can take a full day to get enabled for external
connections.  It says so on the screen in the admin control panel.  I just
failed to see it the first time there.

 

I found the sign-up and setup processes simple and painless.

 

If all goes well over the next couple of weeks, I plan on moving my
carlwebster.com e-mail domain to Office365.

 

Let me know if there is any other info you need.

I'm slowly reading through the Service Descriptions 
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/en/details.aspx?FamilyID=6c6ecc6c-64f5-490a-bca3-8835c9a4a2ea

With regards to Lync it doesn't mention anything about PIC, except for Live 
Messenger.  What about connecting to the other supported messenger?

I'm curious as to how much you can actually administer.  Lync for example is 
largely managed via powershell, do you have the same level of access?

Also interested on feedback from anyone that has integrated 365 with their 
existing AD, Exchange etc.

2011-06-28 Thread James Hill

I'm looking at providing some of the services to our franchisees as it may be 
the most cost effective way to do it.  But at the same time I want to keep the 
existing AD, exchange server etc for company employees.

Challenges and restrictions of integration and co-existence are of interest.  
Lync 2010 can't integrate with Lync Online for example unless it is federated 
(and different domains).

My use of Office 365 is solely for my one man shop.  No AD, Exchange, Lync
or SharePoint in my office.  In the enterprise space I work in, I am not
concerned about Office 365 impacting anything I do.  If anyone wants it, I
will farm that out to MBS.  I don't want to deal with it.  I have my hands
(over)full with Citrix work.

RE: Office 365 - anyone onboard yet?

Office365 provides you both a MSFT domain and your own domain. So federation is 
a small deal.

What we call rich coexistence would require you to answer lots of questions 
and me to spend lots of time analyzing them. Suffice it to be said - it can be 
done, you'll need to use ADFS and/or FIM 2010 to make it happen.

RE: Office 365 - anyone onboard yet?

There are a (limited) number of cmdlets for managing Office 365. Around 125 
cmdlets. You should be able to find the list of those in online help. They map 
VERY closely to the control panel.
