RE: Comp Time Question
I like the way my company handles this. Put simply, we consider the work week to be seven days, not five. I'm required to work a minimum of 40 hours a week (Yes, I'm salary). Those 40 hours can be spread out across the week however I wish. I should mention that I'm a consultant and don't have any users or servers to support, so it doesn't matter if I'm working during normal business hours. For example, if I'm working on an AD or Exchange design for a customer, I can work at home all day Sunday if I choose. If I can bill 10 hours on Sunday, then I only need to bill 30 hours during the remainder of the week. But realistically, when I do design work I'll get up early and work at home for 5 or 6 hours and finish up around 3PM or so. Then I'll plug away for a few more hours late at night after the wife and kids have gone to bed. When I'm doing implementation work I obviously have to conform to my customers schedule. And of course, implementations and migrations often require night and weekend work. So therefore it works out really well that my company pretty much leaves it up to me to define my own hours and work out my schedule with my customer. As long as I can account for 40 hours at the end of the week and I'm meeting my customers timelines and deadlines, they're happy. I get comp time for anything that I can bill time and a half for. If I happen to log 60 hours in a week doing a design, I'm not going to get any comp time for it (unless we can bill time and a half for some of those hours, which is generally not the case on design work, especially if the design was a fixed bid). However, if I have to go to a customer on a Saturday for 2 hours to move a server, I'll get comp time for those 2 hours because we most likely would have billed time and a half for it. In that situation, I'd get those 2 hours of comp time even if I only worked 40 hours total that week. Hope that helps some. If you're in an internal non-billable situation, I don't know how much this actually applies to you. Me being a billable resource allows my company to be very flexible about comp time.

RE: Rules not running correctly
Server-based only means they run on the server. The server itself does not maintain the rules. That you deleted the rule and recreated it in XP confirms that the rules format has been changed. OL pre-2000 can't read the newer format so no rules fire. And it gives no error. Only thing I can think of is for him to delete all rules and recreate them from scratch (him, not you, unless you run OL98). -Original Message- From: Morgan, Joshua [mailto:JMorgan;SCSDB.k12.sc.us] Sent: Tuesday, October 29, 2002 8:38 AM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: Rules not running correctly I am not sure I was not the first admin to open them...

RE: Rules not running correctly
Ok I'll give that a try -Original Message- From: Daniel Chenault [mailto:danielc;dc-resources.net] Sent: Tuesday, October 29, 2002 9:51 AM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: Rules not running correctly Server-based only means they run on the server. The server itself does not maintain the rules. That you deleted the rule and recreated it in XP confirms that the rules format has been changed. OL pre-2000 can't read the newer format so no rules fire. And it gives no error. Only thing I can think of is for him to delete all rules and recreate them from scratch (him, not you, unless you run OL98). -Original Message- From: Morgan, Joshua [mailto:JMorgan;SCSDB.k12.sc.us] Sent: Tuesday, October 29, 2002 8:38 AM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: Rules not running correctly I am not sure I was not the first admin to open them...

The earlier versions of Outlook had an Inbox Assistant where the newer ones have a Rules Wizard. The two put some types of rules in different places, that is they are server based or client based depending on the client version used to create them. In particular I've seen this situation with autoreply rules which we were using to autorespond to messages with(out) a specific value in the Subject field. Sounds like you may have had some Server based rules that didn't make the move. What do you mean by them running OK manually? If you create an autoforwarding rule with a client and save it then it doesn't work?

When modifying Exchange Advanced permissions, completely useless pop-up
error states: ___
Security ___
(X) Unable to save permission changes on [Username].
Catastrophic failure
Retry Cancel ___
There were no associated event log messages. This happens if you have
admins (beasts of burden) without domain admin who change user accounts.
Microsoft will send you patches, which are not public yet. There are two,
they go hand in hand (one is a CDO store fix, the other... well it's not
even released yet, I'll have more info later...). I will post more info
about them as I get it if anyone needs it.

RE: RBL's
That was part of the problem...we went to the link on their site for our IP address, but no information was available on the specific message. It just gave a date that showed when we were first blacklisted. We spent about 2 days trying to get additional information from them. They finally sent us the header from the message. After tracking down the message and sender, we came to the conclusion that it was a legitimate message (not spam or UCE) and that the 30 or so recipients were all individuals that the sender knew. We sent this information back to SPAMCop, where it apparently sat in the bit bucket for 2 more days. They never disagreed with our opinion that the message wasn't spam, but finally de-listed us.

RE: Calendar events
I would tend to believe the user in this case. Outlook does a crummy job of modifying meetings in certain circumstances. The way it does it is by cancelling and re-inviting. If I recall, changing the invite list is one of the things that will do this. There is not, again working from memory, any ability to send a meeting invite to only part of the distribution list, so when you change the DL, all must get the invite, therefore the previous version of the DL must get a cancellation or else there will be a conflict. === Andy Webb[EMAIL PROTECTED] www.swinc.com Simpler-Webb, Inc.

RE: VPN breaks Outlook
Neither - its not a name resolution issue, since you can connect to other host on your internal network. So, you'd be best off if you ignore Mr. Tener. Many of us have for months. See my previous post about MTU size. Outlook sets[1] the Do Not Fragment bit on much of its traffic with the server. So, it takes the 1516 or so bits, throws it into a packet, and sends it on its merry way. At which point the VPN client intercepts it[2], and encapsulates it into an IPSec packet. Which means an additional padding of about 56 bits for the IPSec header info. That makes the packet somewhere in the order of 1570 bits, and it gets slapped on the wire. Now, your friendly neighborhood[3] router sees that the packet is larger than it can handle (larger than its MTU size) and responds with an ICMP Packet must be fragmented but Don't Fragment bit set. The problem is that your client machine never sees that ICMP message, and so it doesn't automatically adjust its own MTU size down, and so Outlook chokes on sync. Roger -- Roger D.

If not, then this is probably your problem. Essentially, you have to use ADC to clone your Exchange 5.5 site services account into AD. E2K needs this in order to join your existing Exchange 5.5 site. This is because E2K cannot use NT4 accounts, so you have to clone your E55 site services account to make it an W2K/AD security principle. Once this is done, you can use this account to provide pass-thru authentication to your E55 environment. Here is a decent document: http://www.microsoft.com/exchange/techinfo/deployment/2000/Six Steps.doc Also, be certain to read all of your ADC documentation (you want the E2K, not the W2K version of the ADC) Also, there are tons of books out there that give step-by-step instructions for setting this up and configuring it. If you have already installed, configured and are sync'ing using ADC, then read through the documentation and find your permissions issue. There are a lot of nit-picky little permissions things that can foul this up and you have to get all the details right. Did you set this up and test it out in your test lab? Trying to run /forestprep and when I goto join an existing 5.5 site, it asks me for a server name from the 5.5 Site, and when I enter it it comes back with an error stating I don't have the permissions required to complete the operation. Has anyone come accross this, or able to lend a helping hand.

RE: Ex2k and IIS Problem
7031 doesn't have to be Code Red, this can be the result of many DoS attacks as well. Can you check that the DLLs on the FEP are indeed updated with the latest security patch: From Q273877 The English version of this fix should have the following file attributes or later: Date TimeVersion SizeFile name Platform - 09/12/2000 07:37p 5.0:2195.2194 357,136 W3svc.dll x86 I have also seen this once or twice when the machine was isolated from the DNS/GC as the result of a bad LAN segment (intermittent outage). Any chance that the FEP is not on the same switch as the DNS? Try some pings from the FEP console to the configured machines and check the other event logs for warnings/errors.

Compaq Utilities installed on both - These are connected to a SAN. Originally 1 front end server - dual PIII processors with 1Gb RAM, EX2k SP2 with Advanced Server SP3 - this is/was for Incoming External mail (via our Sendmail server) and OWA. This server would regularly stop its IIS and Exchange Services with error code 7031 - This believes that there is a code red worm on the server - but the server has been patched from Windows Update. So a second Front end server was put in place for OWA - same build but was stable until the 1st FE was rebuilt. Everything was put through to the 2nd FE. 1st FE came up with no problems but 2nd FE then started having the same problem as the 1st before the rebuild. SMTP mail put back to 1st Server - everything was stable until 2nd FE was rebuilt - 2nd now stable but 1st no longer. The 2nd was rebuilt without the Compaq Utilities and with additional RAm - now 1.75GB 1st server also started having other problems which have all been resolved apart from the original 7031 - services termintating unexpectedly.

RE: VPN breaks Outlook
This is a correct explanation of the issue. Name resolution could have been ruled out by the info originally provided. Jpc- I've seen this often. don't know about alcatel, but some vpn clients allow a mtu config option in the client software which is helpful to limit tcp payload per packet. Play around with it and you'll be rockin soon. good luck.byron -Original Message- From: Roger Seielstad [mailto:roger.seielstad;inovis.com] Sent: Tuesday, October 29, 2002 9:01 AM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: VPN breaks Outlook Neither - its not a name resolution issue, since you can connect to other host on your internal network. So, you'd be best off if you ignore Mr. Tener. Many of us have for months. See my previous post about MTU size. Outlook sets[1] the Do Not Fragment bit on much of its traffic with the server. So, it takes the 1516 or so bits, throws it into a packet, and sends it on its merry way. At which point the VPN client intercepts it[2], and encapsulates it into an IPSec packet. Which means an additional padding of about 56 bits for the IPSec header info. That makes the packet somewhere in the order of 1570 bits, and it gets slapped on the wire. Now, your friendly neighborhood[3] router sees that the packet is larger than it can handle (larger than its MTU size) and responds with an ICMP Packet must be fragmented but Don't Fragment bit set. The problem is that your client machine never sees that ICMP message, and so it doesn't automatically adjust its own MTU size down, and so Outlook chokes on sync. Roger -- Roger D.

Synchronization failure messages are related to network problems preventing access to the Exchange server or the RPC message box retrieving data from Exchange server. These eventually fail and nothing is exchanged between the client and their server mailbox. Has anyone seen this? If so, what tips would you suggest?

If not, then this is probably your problem. Essentially, you have to use ADC to clone your Exchange 5.5 site services account into AD. E2K needs this in order to join your existing Exchange 5.5 site. This is because E2K cannot use NT4 accounts, so you have to clone your E55 site services account to make it an W2K/AD security principle. Once this is done, you can use this account to provide pass-thru authentication to your E55 environment. Here is a decent document: http://www.microsoft.com/exchange/techinfo/deployment/2000/Six Steps.doc Also, be certain to read all of your ADC documentation (you want the E2K, not the W2K version of the ADC) Also, there are tons of books out there that give step-by-step instructions for setting this up and configuring it. If you have already installed, configured and are sync'ing using ADC, then read through the documentation and find your permissions issue. There are a lot of nit-picky little permissions things that can foul this up and you have to get all the details right. Did you set this up and test it out in your test lab? Trying to run /forestprep and when I goto join an existing 5.5 site, it asks me for a server name from the 5.5 Site, and when I enter it it comes back with an error stating I don't have the permissions required to complete the operation.

IMAP POP3 logging on Exch5.5
Hi All, In Q182504 MS make out it's really easy to turn POP3 and IMAP logging on and off using a change to the Registry. They say that the next session will activate the Registry change. Well, yes and no. On one server I can get the file handle on all but one log file released, on another I only get one of the 5 files released. We need to log continuously as we have round the globe POP3 access and the logs help us troubleshoot. But the logs keep growing and now take over 15 minutes to open, so I'd like to close them when they're quite small and let Exchange open new ones. And I don't want to keep restarting the IS. Any ideas?

Non-existent E2K size limits?
Hi Guys, I have an E2K single server that is not allowing messages over 6Mb to be sent out. I have checked the outbound limits in the SMTP protocol, the default limits on the main settings and the user's AD settings. I have searched Microsoft support for all 5.2.3 errors as well, and looked at all settings suggested there, but with no joy. The server can receive large emails, no problem. It is not the ISP. The message gets returned with the following error: Your message did not reach some or all of the intended recipients. Subject: large email test Sent: 21/10/02 09:02 The following recipient(s) could not be reached: [EMAIL PROTECTED] on 21/10/02 09:02 The message was not delivered because it is larger than the current system limit. Create a shorter message body or remove attachments and try sending it again. I am obviously missing something obvious - anybody know of any other restriction or setting that might cause this error?

Offline Address Book Sync Failure.
The problem as it stands now is that our Exchange Server cant generate an offline address book for the GAL and our users cant download the address book to their laptops. This is an MSX 5.5 server and is the only one servicing this site. The workstations are a mixture of Windows based OS and Outlook clients, whilst the server is NT4 SP6a. I have already tried the steps in MS Knowledgebase articles Q235898 and Q243155 but nothing mentioned in there made any difference to our situation. The exact sequence of events is: Client tries to download address book from Outlook 97, 98 or 2000. They recieve the error An error occurred while opening the Microsoft Exchange offline address book files on the Microsoft Exchange Server. See your administrator. This is then followed by the error Unable to download the Offline Address Book. The Microsoft Exchange Address Book could not be accessed. From the client point of view, thats where things stop. In accordance with one of the mentioned articles, I then try to create a new offline address book, selecting only the tiniest of recipients containers (at one stage we created a brand new container for testing, of course we have also tested the entire GAL). When I hit GENERATE ALL, the process fails stating: An error occurred while generating the offline Address Book. To view details, see the application event log in the Windows NT Event Viewer on the offline Address Book Server. Microsoft Exchange Administrator ID no. c1031662 Checking the Event Log reveals Event ID: 5004 Description: Generation of the offline Address Book is complete. Result: An error occurred. Another article describes putting OAB Version 2 and Offline Address Book in the folders on this information store list. We have checked the instances and both of these folders are located on the Public Information Store of the server. We have experienced a similar situation previously, but it was in a multiple server exchange site. I believe the resolution there was the total removal of Offline Address Book and then re-installing it. (I THINK that was the solution anyway). Can anyone shed some light on what might be causing this and more importantly, what will fix it?

RE: VPN breaks Outlook
So let me ask you question, I could never figure it out. I have pptp setup on a windows nt server that is my pdc. We use this to connect to our exchange server which is a bdc. If i connect to the my server over the vpn and dont use the lmhost file I cannot connect to my exchage to read my email. So the only way I have been taught is to add a line to my lmhost file on the clients computer then use nbtstat -c then -R to purge the lmhost entries then i am able to connect to the exchange server through the vpn. So if you know of another way I can set this up so I dont have to do it on everyones personal computers at home (as i have been doing for a year now) I would appreciate it. Can i add something to my dns server so people in my office can connect without lmhosts file. appreciate the help rich -Original Message- From: Roger Seielstad [mailto:roger.seielstad;inovis.com] Sent: Tuesday, October 29, 2002 12:01 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: VPN breaks Outlook Neither - its not a name resolution issue, since you can connect to other host on your internal network. So, you'd be best off if you ignore Mr. Tener. Many of us have for months. See my previous post about MTU size. Outlook sets[1] the Do Not Fragment bit on much of its traffic with the server. So, it takes the 1516 or so bits, throws it into a packet, and sends it on its merry way. At which point the VPN client intercepts it[2], and encapsulates it into an IPSec packet. Which means an additional padding of about 56 bits for the IPSec header info. That makes the packet somewhere in the order of 1570 bits, and it gets slapped on the wire. Now, your friendly neighborhood[3] router sees that the packet is larger than it can handle (larger than its MTU size) and responds with an ICMP Packet must be fragmented but Don't Fragment bit set. The problem is that your client machine never sees that ICMP message, and so it doesn't automatically adjust its own MTU size down, and so Outlook chokes on sync. Roger -- Roger D.

Re: Message Moving
*sigh* I asked what version the user is running and what version you are running. If they are not the same version than you can not say, with surety, that there are no rules on the mailbox. Now, think it through logically: messages don't move themselves anywhere. Either a human does it or a rule does it. If you've ruled out human error that leaves a rule.

Re: Offline Address Book Sync Failure.
How are they connected when they try to do a Sync. - Original Message - From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Exchange Discussions [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, October 29, 2002 1:59 AM Subject: Offline Address Book Sync Failure. The problem as it stands now is that our Exchange Server cant generate an offline address book for the GAL and our users cant download the address book to their laptops. This is an MSX 5.5 server and is the only one servicing this site. The workstations are a mixture of Windows based OS and Outlook clients, whilst the server is NT4 SP6a. I have already tried the steps in MS Knowledgebase articles Q235898 and Q243155 but nothing mentioned in there made any difference to our situation. The exact sequence of events is: Client tries to download address book from Outlook 97, 98 or 2000. They recieve the error An error occurred while opening the Microsoft Exchange offline address book files on the Microsoft Exchange Server. See your administrator. This is then followed by the error Unable to download the Offline Address Book. The Microsoft Exchange Address Book could not be accessed. From the client point of view, thats where things stop. In accordance with one of the mentioned articles, I then try to create a new offline address book, selecting only the tiniest of recipients containers (at one stage we created a brand new container for testing, of course we have also tested the entire GAL). When I hit GENERATE ALL, the process fails stating: An error occurred while generating the offline Address Book. To view details, see the application event log in the Windows NT Event Viewer on the offline Address Book Server. Microsoft Exchange Administrator ID no. c1031662 Checking the Event Log reveals Event ID: 5004 Description: Generation of the offline Address Book is complete. Result: An error occurred. Another article describes putting OAB Version 2 and Offline Address Book in the folders on this information store list. We have checked the instances and both of these folders are located on the Public Information Store of the server. We have experienced a similar situation previously, but it was in a multiple server exchange site. I believe the resolution there was the total removal of Offline Address Book and then re-installing it. (I THINK that was the solution anyway). Can anyone shed some light on what might be causing this and more importantly, what will fix it?
