Do you have DBNS installed/configured?

I love typos (please show me SQL 2003 if you can)

For 200 users on a BES, I could install SQL server (if it would install) on my 
playbook and it would handle it without issue.

Sounds like your SQL admin is guessing ... suggest that he setup some perfmon 
counters, or look at SQL BPA -

I'll bet $1.00 that the only reason they want to move it is to silence you.

Tell them to do their due diligence and look at the performance of the server 
and fix it.

Thanks. I saw even the KB article for 5.0.3 Exchange on the DBNS said the SQL 
server had to be on server 2003, but another article
says it's now supported on 2008 as of SP1. I assume the original article was 
just never updated?

I'm a bit torn on the database. I really don't like the thought of moving it, 
but then if they don't figure it out soon, it's really
going to annoy me. My BES servers are losing connection to the database much 
more than I'm comfortable with.

I'm actually wondering if part of why they want to move me is that BES is the 
only thing actively complaining.

Re: [Bes-admins] BlackBerry Agent Issues

Wanna send over the ALRT/CTRL logs?  Hung threads with a specific agent . that

Subject: [Bes-admins] FW: BlackBerry Agent Issues

 

We are using BES 5 with 5 different MS Exchange 2003 mail servers (one for each 
of our locations).  Four of the locations/servers
are doing fine.  The connection to the 5th server has suddenly posed an issue 
the last day or two.  The agent for that server (now
agents since we've created some additional static agents) will periodically get 
restarted by the BlackBerry controller.  The message
in the Windows Event Viewer of the BlackBerry server is:

agent 5 missed 2 heartbeats. Restarting.

 

When I look at that agent's log it shows this before restarting each time.

[5] (04/20 13:02:50.003):{0x2A6C} Controller: Requested to stop
[50106] (04/20 13:02:50.295):{0x1D74} Stopping BlackBerry Mailbox Agent 5 for 
Server vTolBlackberry

 

Any ideas?  I spoke to RIM and will be calling them back, but they didn't sound 
overly sure the first time I mentioned the issue.
Yesterday this occurred ten times and I had to restart the controller and/or 
dispatcher service for the agent to work again.  We
have rebooted the Exchange server in question and BlackBerry server.

Re: [Bes-admins] Blackberry vs Iphone

2011-02-28 Thread hdawg
The APIs supported with iOS4 are good.  They're not great, but they're good and 
present a compelling case in a lot of scenarios.

 

FIPS 140?

HIPPA compliant?

Cause me to not toss and turn every once in a while at night?

Yeah not so much.

 

My take is you need to look at your industry, your requirements, and then talk 
to others in the same boat.  Look at your BB policy .
look at your laptop policy (think of all the things you can do on your laptop 
that you can/can't do on your iPhone/BB . yet such
little restrictions sometimes).

 

Also, talk to the vendors in the space (disclaimer: I work for one).  A lot of 
time is spent discussing what options are out there
and I never walk away from a discussion about what is happening in the market.  
Sure I want to sell my wares, but sharing what I've
learned with customers (I feel) is some of the most valuable information . 
hopefully we all learn something and you don't think of
me as typical vendor scum.

 

Apple will continue to improve upon what is in place (keep in mind how big and 
successful the consumer space is for Apple) and
vendors will support the new technology.  We'll see the same thing from 
Google/Android, MS/Nokia/Win Phone 7, HP/WebOS, etc.

 

Just keep in mind the big picture here: it isn't about locking down a device 
and securing it . it's about making end users
productive and providing a higher quality of service to those users.  Yes, 
security is a part of it . but why are we giving people
these devices / supporting them anyway?

 

And now I'll step off my soapbox and look out the window of the train as I head 
back to my office.

scrambling to find a way to secure it to their standards.
To my knowledge the hooks into iOS4 just can't handle that kind of security yet.

Forget 64 bit, it won't install on 2008 period. Personally, I think you need to

I am nowhere near a BES expert. I barely got it installed and working, let

We currently have BPS ver. 4.1.4.17 running on Server 2003 32bit Exchange

couple of weeks to a Windows 2008 R2, which is a 64bit OS. Will I be able to

Check the your SQL tables for incompatible version types. Old versions of the 
app could be preventing the newer version from being
installed if it is in the user sql entry in the sync device mgmt table I 
believe.

The rule used to be 100 meg for the base database and 1 meg per user. I think 
it's changed a bit in 5, but not sure of the hard
rule. We have about 300 users, and the database is 500 meg. Even with 1100

You don't need the IIS logs, you can use the following vbscript to hit the 
exchange mailbox servers which'll identify the devices
and last sync time and dump it into a pretty htm file.

 

http://gsexdev.blogspot.com/2006/09/enumerating-devices-registered-via.html

 

only downside is you need to run it against mailbox server . but its going to 
pull all partnership data for you so you'll get a
complete list, instead of what just gets picked up in the iis logs.

Guys, 

I know this is not Blackberry related and completely off topic. So if you want 
to refer me to another forum to get this information
please do.

I need to find a way to identify Windows Mobile 5.X devices in the IIS Logs for 
Exchange 2003. We are beginning to deploy Exchange
2007 in production and apparently Windows Mobile 5.X devices can't take 
advantage off all the new policy settings, so we need to
assign these users a separate Exchange policy. I have some scripts that use 
logparser to extract Device type from the IIS logs but
it doesn't identify this: MSFT-PPC/5.1.xxx or MSFT-SPhone/5.1.xxx type which is 
what I need to find.

Scratching my head on this one. Try posting on a MS forum but nobody responded. 
Maybe I picked the wrong one. I picked an
Activesynch forum.

In 5.0 it would be an unknown app policy.

 

In 4.1.x unknown app policy doesn't exist, but you simply define the first line 
in a software config as having an app control policy
set to disallow and then set each app you want in the software config to either 
optional or required and it'll be allowed nthe
device.

So this is different than a regular 3rd party app policy? Okay thanks. We never 
pushed down 3rd party apps to devices. Now one more
question? Do all the users need to be on BES 5.0 in order to be able to do this?

No, but you can create an application control policy to disallow all apps and 
add in the app you want as an exclusion.

Does anyone know if you have an IT policy in place to prevent users from 
installing 3rd party apps, can you have an exception put in
place for one specific app?

We do not allow 3rd party apps, but there is one product we don't to allow for 
a select group of users. 

Thanks everyone!

Or you could follow none of these recommendations and do it the right way.

First, do this: 
http://blog.port3101.org/hdawg/29-force-message-prepopulation-all-users-blackberry-enterprise-server.html

Now regardless of when you activate ... it'll prepopulate ... turn it off if 
you don't want it after the fact.

Second, reactivate the device.  If you want to wipe ... sure I guess ... but 
please for the love of god don't remove the user from
the BES, you'll lose all the automatic wireless backup data / configuration.

I am not sure if this is the best solution.

1. Mails: bes does not push old mails if the same bb device(pin) is activating 
on the same account. So did he maybe tried to ea,
stopped/ canceled it in the middle, wiped the bb and activated again?

1a: does he have mails in inbox and sent that can be pushed? If everything is 
filed the data will not show on bb, untl the
redirection is set.

2. Every ea pushes some old(1,5 month) and all new.

 I would sent a wipe command to his bb(to remove the pin/device from the 
account), and then activate it again.

For those keeping track, this particular issue prevented activation of all 
users on the system, existing unactivated and new users.

Deleting/recreating did not help, no errors in event logs or anything 
particularly useful in the BES server logs. Same for
restarting BES services on server. The users on the server saw no problems with 
any service at all the entire time, ie, everything
else was working fine.

Miraculously, a full server reboot and (probably more importantly) a RAM 
increase resulted in multiple successful activations! The
server was almost out of RAM, but I have never seen that affect an activation 
before.

Anyone else seen that as a solution before? Thanks!

Re: [Bes-admins] Turn on reconciliation for permanently deleted email messages

2010-07-21 Thread hdawg
Has anyone turned on reconciliation for permanently deleted email messages on 
BES 5?  We have a few users that want it turned on.

Ø  Yes, have been so for years.

My only concern is the mention of recurring message scans being used to detect 
these permanently deleted messages.

Ø  Don’t be concerned

Will it slow down mail delivery?

Ø  Not noticeably

Reconciliation?

Ø  Nope

Anything else to be aware of?

Ø  Notify your users before you make this change and understand the limitations 
of it.  The biggest problem with implementing hard
deletes is the administrators don’t understand the limitations of it and don’t 
effectively communicate to the end users.

 

http://www.port3101.org/featured-blackberry-kb-articles/1225-kb04853-how-enable-hard-deletes-blackberry-enterprise-server.html

 

The support for hard deletes uses a Message State Database stored in the 
computer memory. This database is enabled by default even
if the Hard Deletes Reconciliation feature is disabled. By default, the last 
100 email messages are tracked for hard delete support
in the Message State Database however this number can be changed.
The Message State Database may be reset so that email messages redirected to a 
BlackBerry smartphone during a previous BlackBerry
Enterprise Server session will not be deleted, even if they are hard deleted in 
the BlackBerry smartphone user's mailbox. Any of the
following actions will reset the Message State Database:

*   Either of the BlackBerry Enterprise Server or BlackBerry Professional 
Software are restarted.
*   The BlackBerry smartphone user is moved to another BlackBerry 
Enterprise Server or BlackBerry Professional Software.
*   The BlackBerry smartphone user's mailbox is moved to another Microsoft® 
Exchange Server.
*   The BlackBerry Enterprise Server administrator sends a Reload User 
command from BlackBerry Manager.

 

 

Thanks!

 

http://docs.blackberry.com/en/admin/deliverables/14334/Turn_on_reconciliation_for_perm_deleted_msgs_484123_11.jsp

Users can delete email messages permanently in Microsoft® Outlook®. You can 
configure a BlackBerry® Enterprise Server to remove
permanently deleted messages from BlackBerry devices. If you turn on hard 
deletes reconciliation, the BlackBerry Messaging Agent
also deletes email messages from BlackBerry devices when users archive or move 
email messages to personal folders in Microsoft
Outlook. When you turn on reconciliation for permanently deleted email 
messages, the BlackBerry Messaging Agent uses recurring
message scans to detect permanently deleted email messages on the messaging 
server, and then deletes the email messages from
BlackBerry devices. 

1.  In the BlackBerry Administration Service, on the Servers and components 
menu, expand BlackBerry Solution topology 
BlackBerry Domain  Component view  Email. 
2.  Click the instance that you want to change. 
3.  Click Edit instance. 
4.  On the Messaging tab, in the Messaging options section, in the Hard 
deletes reconciliation drop-down list, click True. 
5.  Click Save all. 
6.  On the computer that hosts the BlackBerry Dispatcher, restart the 
BlackBerry Dispatcher.

Keep in mind that all you have to do is explicitly deny port 80/443 to these IP 
addresses to block access to OWA.  Also, keep in
mind that with BES you're making an outbound-initiated connection and the RIM 
NOC never initiates a connection inbound . and even at
that you only need TCP port 3101 open to these IPs.

 

Hope this helps.

The ONLY way is by users' hardcoding username/password combos on BBs.  This is 
a complete security meltdown.  My CIO is melting in
his chair now while hearing the words in this thread.  

 

It basically comes down to policy.  Not only is it a security issue for 
corporate data and such, you also can't control the password
lockout on personal devices (not connected to the BES).  No Corporate policy on 
the BB, no BB access.  That's the credo we are
forced to enforce!  

 

We went through this about two years ago when people started configuring OWA on 
their iPhones.  Now we have to start blocking GMAILs
Google Calendar as people have figured out that they can access their calendar 
on their iPhones by configuring Google Calendar and
forwarding.  The security implications are so frustrating!

Ugh!

 

Is there any way to prevent BIS from accessing corporate email?  I set up a 
test account and it looks like it is accessing via OWA,
but I cannot turn off OWA as that is the main method our stores use to get 
email.

You are correct, it would be BIS - configured at the store they purchased the 
phone from.  

 

I was at Verizon the other day and this is the conversation that I heard.

BES is outbound – just don’t block outbound and  you’re fine. You’re blocking 
inbound for OWA/BIS, which is what he said in an earlier post.

HDawg,

 

Your post shows these addresses as the BIS servers:


BIS IP Range


206.51.26.0/24


193.109.81.0/24


204.187.87.0/24


206.53.144.0/20


216.9.240.0/20


67.233.64.0/19


93.186.16.0/20


68.171.224.0/19

 

Another post on your site 
http://www.port3101.org/featured-blackberry-kb-articles/793-kb03735-firewall-connection-requirements-blackberry-enterprise-server.html
 shows the same IP range for BES:


BES IP Range


206.51.26.0 /24


193.109.81.0/24


204.187.87.0/24


216.9.240.0/20


206.53.144.0/20


67.223.64.0/19


93.186.16.0/20


68.171.224.0/19

 

Which means that I can’t block those IP’s or BES stops working as well.  

 

Back to the drawing board…

This looks to be the most promising solution.  Is there another list that shows

Re: [Bes-admins] BES 5 vs BES Express with BIS

BES does not support BIS accounts.  The only interaction BES has with BIS 
accounts is that a BES can block access to BIS.  If a
BlackBerry smartphone is BES provisioned and the BES Admin does not block 
access to BIS a user on BES/BES Express can successfully
use BIS.

Re: [Bes-admins] Implementing New Password Policy Tomorrow for 1300 users

2010-06-28 Thread hdawg
I would not recommend following the path you're taking.

 

First and foremost I don't ever recommend applying the default policy to 
anyone.  I recommend making the default policy the most
secure / most restrictive policy and then creating new policies for however you 
choose to implement IT Policy.

 

By doing this you've gone through and explicitly set what you want and don't 
have any possible stragglers . you know if someone has
the Default policy assigned to them that someone didn't do what they were 
supposed to.

 

So, create the new policy and assign them to people.  I'd do them in groups of 
100 in 30 minute intervals . doing the first 10 or so
prior to the group of 100 one at a time to verify that the proper settings are 
indeed in place.

 

Hopefully you've done some testing already and already worked out the kinks 
with a pilot group, but if not, now you can.

Hi Everyone, 

Can anyone make a good recommendation on the most efficient way to push down a 
new password policy to everyone tomorrow. I assume
changing the default policy is the preferred method, and then having an 
exception group should that be needed. Once I update the
default policy does it automatically get pushed or do I need to highlight the 
users names and click resent IT policy.

Just want to do this is the best possible fashion to minimize problems.

Yes to what?

 

What AD attribute are you looking to view?  Regardless, there is no way to 
simply get a logon id  if you're looking for everything
prior to @domain.com you could export the user data and parse it in excel / etc.

I know how to do an export, but it does not give you logon id as a field to 
export. That is what I am asking. thanks

It's probably NOT a rights thing.  Check the BAS log file for any errors /

I'll look at it.

Subject: [Bes-admins] Delete user Bes 5

We have a problem deleting users from our 03 server Bes 5.0 mr2 server. 

 

In the admin screen I choose a user and I get a error:  The request could not 
be completed.  (I am running as the full bes admin)

 

I tried doing it from SQL directly as posted elsewhere but it then leaves the 
user still listed and in a funky state.

 

Has anyone else run into this problem?  Seems to me this should be a simple 
thing but its not working.

 

Thank you

We replaced a Blackberry Tour 9630 today under a warranty exchange. I was able 
to do the BB switch on the desktop manager and it
worked perfect. Now the owner information is not showing up on the screen. I 
even tried to put a password on it and lock it, still
noting. All you get is the message that says the screen is locked and press the 
lock button to unlock it. Does anyone know of a fix
for this? I've gone through the BES and the only reference that I see is the 
Lock Owner Info. I enabled that but it's still not
showing up.

I think it may be all or nothing.  We use an auto-config file and figure that 
the same conditions should apply to a user going through the proxy regardless 
if they are coming from a PC or a BB.  However, we do not prevent them from 
switching to the internet browser so they could bypass the proxy.

Our company uses a proxy server to filter web pages such as Facebook and 
MySpace.  I was reading through the instructions to set up the BES to use the 
proxy server and it seems like it’s an all or nothing type of deal. Am I 
reading correctly, or is there a way that I can set up groups and set those 
groups to use the proxy?
