I think your concerns are quite valid. Years ago at a former employer, a department of the company was developing an application that required Service Account Admin rights, and I raised enough red flags that IT management changed things.
Ed Crowley MCSE+Internet MVP Freelance E-Mail Philosopher Protecting the world from PSTs and Bricked Backups!T -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Larry Wahlers Sent: Tuesday, March 22, 2005 9:14 AM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: ChangePoint Software, anyone? Colleagues, Sorry to bother you, but this is Exchange-related. Does anybody use ChangePoint on their Exchange server? Management has bought the package, they've been testing it on my Exchange 2003 test server, and they want to go into production with training starting on Monday. The ChangePoint account needs full privs on the Mailbox and Public Folder stores. We have finished moving the IT department to the production Exchange 2003 server, and are just beginning our conversion of everybody that's outside the IT department to the same production Exchange 2003 server. To keep everything simple, since we're all in the same building, I was just putting everybody in the same store. However, now, with ChangePoint software needing full privs on the store, in order to protect everybody else that's not IT in case ChangePoint decides to go berserk, I'm thinking I should create a second storage group on that server and move all the non-IT people (who are actually our clients) off the IT store. Am I being too cautious? Or should I just keep everybody in the same store, according to my original KISS plan? -- Larry Wahlers Concordia Technologies The Lutheran Church - Missouri Synod _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Web Interface: http://intm-dl.sparklist.com/read/?forum=exchange To subscribe: http://e-newsletters.internet.com/discussionlists.html/ To unsubscribe send a blank email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe via postal mail, please contact us at: Jupitermedia Corp.
