Re: [Bes-admins] Moving BES database to new SQL server
I'll bet $1.00 that the only reason they want to move it is to silence you.

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. -Original Message- From: hdawg [mailto:hd...@port3101.org] Sent: Monday, May 09, 2011 8:19 AM To: bes-admins@dataoutages.com Subject: Re: [Bes-admins] Moving BES database to new SQL server Do you have DBNS installed/configured?

Re: [Bes-admins] Blackberry vs Iphone
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.

The users on the server saw no problems with any service at all the entire time, ie, everything else was working fine.

Re: [Bes-admins] Turn on reconciliation for permanently deleted email messages
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 Dont 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 dont understand the limitations of it and dont 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.

Yes: http://www.port3101.org/featured-blackberry-kb-articles/793-kb03735-firewall-connection-requirements-blackberry-enterprise-server.ht ml. 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.

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
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.

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. Thanks!

Re: [Bes-admins] Using a Proxy Server with BES
It is 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. _ From: Michele A Cassone miche...@envirotrac.com To: A list for BES Admin's to discuss issues, etc. bes-admins@dataoutages.com Sent: Mon, May 24, 2010 12:52:01 PM Subject: [Bes-admins] Using a Proxy Server with BES Hi Everyone, 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? This is what I was reading: http://www.blackberry.com/btsc/search.do?cmd=displayKCdocType=kcexternalId=KB15673sliceId=2docTypeID=DT_SUPPORTISSUE_1_1dialogID=182342574stateId=0%200%20182889833 http://www.blackberry.com/btsc/search.do?cmd=displayKCdocType=kcexternalId=KB15673sliceId=2docTypeID=DT_SUPPORTISSUE_1_1dialogID=182342574stateId=0%200%20182889833 http://www.blackberry.com/btsc/search.do?cmd=displayKCdocType=kcexternalId=KB11028sliceId=1docTypeID=DT_SUPPORTISSUE_1_1dialogID=182342574stateId=0%200%20182889833 http://www.blackberry.com/btsc/search.do?cmd=displayKCdocType=kcexternalId=KB11028sliceId=1docTypeID=DT_SUPPORTISSUE_1_1dialogID=182342574stateId=0%200%20182889833 TIA, Michele A Cassone | Network Administrator | EnviroTrac Ltd. | 5 Old Dock Road, Yaphank NY 11980 631.924.3001(office) | 631.924.5001(fax) | miche...@envirotrac.com __ Solutions in Action - http://www.envirotrac.com CONFIDENTIALITY: This e-mail (including any attachments) may contain confidential, proprietary and privileged information, and unauthorized disclosure or use is prohibited.
