RE: Back up Exchange WITHOUT backing up voice mail from Cisco Uni fied Messaging
Yeah. Back it up as part of the store. What's the big deal? Its going to be backed up anyway, and going to take the same amount of time and space. Why are you making it needlessly complex? -- Roger D. Seielstad - MTS MCSE MS-MVP Sr. Systems Administrator Inovis Inc. -Original Message- From: Wendel, Jesse [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, July 17, 2003 5:25 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: Back up Exchange WITHOUT backing up voice mail from Cisco Unified Messaging I'm trying to figure out how to back up Exchange Servers WITHOUT backing up voice mails placed into Exchange by Cisco's Unified Messaging (UM). I had thought of routing messaging from the UM to a separate store - creating a secondary mailbox for each user - say, John User (juser) and John User - Voice (juser-v) - and grant permissions to juser to access juser-v. Unfortunately, UM is junk software and doesn't support secondary authentication. It requires one to be logged in with the juser-v account. And if I log everyone in as juser-v and let their secondary be juser, then every time they send mail, it isn't in the proper sent items mail box, and it isn't coming from the appropriate address. And obviously people aren't going to use the FROM box and manually move items from the one Sent Items folder to the other. I'm now reduced to speculating about writing code using the event sink, based on the class used by UM, to set where mail goes, and who it is from, but grrr, what a kludge. So I don't know what to do. Any ideas?

RE: IS Online Maintenance
No, not 'always'. The key thing is to make sure the online maint window is outside of your backup window, otherwise the backup process will halt the maintenance. 01:00 - 07:00 is ok. If the window is larger than is required by the process, multiple runs of the maintenance take place. Check your event logs to see how long the maint runs take and adjust if necessary.

RE: Help. Can't connect to Exchange2k
DNS would be my guess too. The other week we replaced a network card in an Exchange server. During the course of this it acquired a DHCP address. This DHCP address was retained in the DNS server records even after the new network card was given the server's original address. NT4 clients could still connect to the server but Win2K and above machines were picking up the DHCP address and could not locate it. If you haven't already see if the clients can ping the Exchange server by name - and if not what address they resolve for it. -Original Message- From: Todd Boynton [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 18 July 2003 14:40 To: Exchange Discussions Subject: Help.

Pinging doesn't necessarily mean you have no DNS issue :) Can you telnet to port 25 of your exchange server from your machine?

RE: Sending Secure Mail over the Internet
My take on this is that it sounds like the minimum requirement is end to end secure connection over the Internet (as Andrey pointed out)...which does sound like a TLS candidate. The problem with using PGP or the like is that you then rely on the customer (client) to encrypt the email. If the requirement is that all transactions are encrypted then at least TLS enforces a secure transmission between two gateways. But I would also implement actual message encryption as well (again..PGP or the like). So in the best case, you have an encrypted message traveling over a secure channel (public channel that is...this doesn't address what happens to the message while it is on its way to gatewayA and what happens to the message once it leaves gatewayB). The worst case is that a client forgets to encrypt the email, but it is still transmitted over a secure channel (thus still meeting the requirement to transmit it securely over the Internet). Best regards, Steve -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Fyodorov, Andrey Sent: Thursday, July 17, 2003 1:59 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: Sending Secure Mail over the Internet Ok I suggested it. Because from what I read, they want to always send mail to the same destination in a secure way (We want to send reports to the State that contain information about our students) In order to use PKI encryption, they would have to ask the recipient to obtain a certificate first, then get the recipient's public key from a digitally signed message, then always remember to encrypt individual messages. With TLS, you set it up once and then start sending e-mail - the server does the job of encrypting the transmission every time. If I had to send encrypted mail to many different destinations, I would sure go with PKI or maybe PGP. But when you are targeting the same place all the time, why not TLS? -Original Message- From: Johansson Patrick [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, July 17, 2003 3:20 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: Sending Secure Mail over the Internet Ok, maybe I've had a few too many beers but why in the world is everybody suggesting TLS. It's a bother to set up and you have to do it with every mail server you want to have secure communications with. Great, the communications are secure but how about the actual e-mail? Correct me if I'm wrong but the easiest way in this instance would be to just encrypt the e-mail. Windows does provide CA and you can always get another certificate from a known source. Another way to go is to use pgp or some offshoot of that. I don't know but sometimes we (designers/administrators) get a little over excited using technology we don't really have to use.

Actually, the 4xx error is correct, as this is a recoverable error, and its being generated by his MTA not the remote one.

Holy crap. I wrote that script while working, well, techically here, but while we were owned by a larger company, which had a penchant for acquiring other companies. On the order of at least one a quarter, if not more. I tend to start with it and modify it as necessary to perform various tasks. The last time I did anything with it was to build a white list for one of our legacy Internet domain names - we have a handful of valid addresses in a domain that existed for many years, and therefore receives a LOT of spam.

SMTP Connector erroneously entering Link Down state
We've recently worked out the what's going on with a problem we're seeing with outbound SMTP mail flow from E2K. On our live system (2 back-ends, 2 front-ends and a legacy Ex55 IMS system that we're in the process of removing) outbound mail normally flows through the FE's, but sometimes goes out via the IMS (a higher cost route that shouldn't be used) for a period of several minutes. On a test system we found we can provoke the problem at will. We took a W2K SP3 system running E2K SP3, with an SMTP connector set to route all mails to a downstream Unix system running Exim 4.20 as MTA, and it goes like this: - Exchange initiates an SMTP connection to the downstream MTA - It sends a RCPT TO with an invalid address, and the command is rejected by the MTA with a 550 - in some cases a single line message, sometimes a multi-line message - An NDR goes back to the sender - The routing engine logs a 977 event Following connector failed to connect to its target bridgehead... - A link down event is distributed round the routing group All further outbound mail is now queued on the messages for unreachable destination queue. After 15 minutes the connector attempts an SMTP connection to the downstream system, succeeds, and the link is brought up. If we change the SMTP connector configuration to Use DNS to route to each address space everything works fine. We can't use this in live service, though, since we have to have all outbound mail handled by our central hub systems. Anyone got any comments? It seems like this is one for PSS - taking a link down just because a recipient is rejected by the downstream system does not seem a sensible thing to do - actually it's a good way for users to do a DOS attack, just by mailing to non-existent addresses...

Walt -Original Message- From: Jason Clishe [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Posted At: Wednesday, July 16, 2003 8:40 AM Posted To: Exchange Discussion Conversation: Running DomainPrep in an existing Exchange Org? Subject: Running DomainPrep in an existing Exchange Org? I posted a message to the list a few days ago about a problem I'm having at a client. To summarize, all Domain Admins and Enterprise Admins have full administrative rights in Exchange, even though those groups are NOT listed in the Exchange Delegation Wizard. Unfortunately I didn't receive any responses. So then I figured that I'd just add the Domain Admins and Enterprise Admins groups to the Exchange Delegation Wizard, and then go back and remove them, hoping that would clear out those permissions from wherever they happen to be hiding. Well that didn't work. When I attempted to add the permissions using the wizard I got the error Failed to grant permission for DOMAIN\Domain Admins on this object: /dc=com/dc=domain/cn=Configuration. When I clicked OK, I then got the same error message for the Enterprise Admins group. Obviously I'd rather not go into ADSI Edit and start monkeying with permissions manually. So my question is this...what would happen if I ran domainprep again? Would that reset all Exchange permissions back to default? What account would then have Exchange Full Admins rights?

RE: Windows accounts are getting locked out by themselves
Andrey, I ran into this same issue shortly after we upgraded our domain to Win2k AD last summer. Funny thing was, all the lockouts were coming from Windows 98 workstations. I could never put my finger on it, and in desperation finally disabled account lockouts. However, invalid password attempts were still being logged in the event view. Shortly after moving the domain over to native mode, the problem all but disappeared. Now that the majority of our desktops are running Win2k, I'll probably re-enable the account lockout policy and monitor the event logs. Strangest thing, and to this day my must frustrating mystery.

If they are logged into more than one computer with an open profile, and execute a password change on another computer, something in that other open profile could be trying to authenticate and is using the old wrong password.

Funny thing was, all the lockouts were coming from Windows 98 workstations. I could never put my finger on it, and in desperation finally disabled account lockouts. However, invalid password attempts were still being logged in the event view. Shortly after moving the domain over to native mode, the problem all but disappeared. Now that the majority of our desktops are running Win2k, I'll probably re-enable the account lockout policy and monitor the event logs. Strangest thing, and to this day my must frustrating mystery.

RE: Back up Exchange WITHOUT backing up voice mail from Cisco Unified Messaging
Roger and others, We're the largest utility in the Pacific Northwest. We have a high legal profile. Per our attorneys, we are not to back up voice messages longer than needed for disaster recovery. If I put them in a second store, I can back that store up just enough (say, 1-2 weeks) for disaster recovery, but not long term, like the years we are required by FERC to keep tapes of our email. What we want to avoid is having to go through or hand over voice mail during legal discovery process. Which we'd have to do if they were backed up as part of the regular email store. But if they're off in their own store, we just don't back up that store (or keep tapes for very long), and there isn't a problem. The problem with doing this, as I said below - is that Cisco's UM doesn't support secondary authentication, so I do what I'd originally planned, which is, make a secondary mailbox for voice and just have people attach to it; it has to be the primary account people are logged in as, or we lose some UM functionality. And I really don't want to write some kludged up event sink based on message class to check if its a voice mail or not, and if not, to rewrite the From line and move the sent message over to the non-voice mail Exchange mailbox. So I'm hoping someone has another idea. Because I'm stuck.

Outlook/Exchange/VPN connectivity problem
Hi guys, A few users are having an intermittent connectivity problem to Exchange server over a VPN connection. Here's what we're using: Exchange 2000 Sp3, Outlook 2002 Sp2 on the clients. When these users connect to our VPN, they can see/ping everything, including Exchange, but always have problems opening outlook. First they have to set their profile to manually control the connection and force an online connection. Even then they have to hit retry a few times, but it finally connects, although very slowly. I know DNS DNS DNS, but they can ping the Exchange server by name, and I even gave them entries in the HOSTS file for the local (internal VPN) address of the Exchange server... any thoughts here? Its driving me crazy. -W _ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Web Interface: http://intm-dl.sparklist.com/cgi-bin/lyris.pl?enter=exchangetext_mode=lang=english To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin:[EMAIL PROTECTED]

Why not store the voice mail messages in public folders (each person gets their own of course) that live on a dedicated pf store for vm and set a different type of backup schedule for that pf store?

RE: SMTP Connector erroneously entering Link Down state
My Outlook client won't even let me try and send a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED],com and when trying to route the same through Exchange using a POP3 client (SMTP) the Exchange SMTP refuses to accept it for delivery. So, I think[1] the risk is relatively low. [1] Not much thought admittedly, I'm in the process of building a new lab. Yes, I think you're right with that one. I'm not sure I couldn't come up with a do-able example where the MTA really will get passed something it doesn't want to accept - it would be well within its rights to reject permanently a 100 squillibyte message! (And being a university, we have lots of people who'll want to try to find the loopholes...) But however we want to argue that, I'm not convinced that taking the connector down *is* appropriate behaviour. It depends what you define as the link - in this case there *is* SMTP connectivity; and the *retry* handler certainly regards the simple ability to make an SMTP connection as enough to mark the connector as up again. If inability to issue a RCPT command is enough to take the connector down, shouldn't a success be required to bring it up? Don't know. What would be the meaning of a message that failed with one recipient and succeeded with 10 others, for instance? The problem that we have here with this behaviour is that's it's radically different from how the Ex55 IMS did things. And isn't there an inconsistency in how things are done anyway? An error occurs which is deemed so serious that the connector must be marked down; yet the message which caused this is *not* requeued, and an NDR is generated. Isn't one layer saying Hmm, an error here but I've handled it, nothing to worry about and another saying Hey, something really really terrible is happening?. Don't know. Anyway, I'm on holiday for a week now, so my co-workers can worry about all this! Thanks for your thoughts!

RE: Back up Exchange WITHOUT backing up voice mail from Cisco Unified Messaging
I've got a Cisco tool that can go in and scrub out the VM's. That isn't an issue. Or as you said, I could script ExMerge. The problem is, if the VM's make it to a store which has regular email, then they'll get backed up that night with the regular email, and then they're on that tape forever. Which makes them subject to discovery. Unless every single VM was scrubbed each night from the store, PRIOR to the backups, including from the dumpster, that isn't going to work. And obviously that isn't practical, because people will be on vacation, take days off, save a voice mail for a day or a week, and so on. Thus, if the VM's are in the same store as their regular emails, they will get backed up, and then we're hosed. We're nailing down specifics with the lawyers. Slippery little devils. Naturally, this entire system was approved at the Executive level without ever once talking with those of us accountable for implementing, integrating, or administering it. Any other ideas?

RE: Outlook/Exchange/VPN connectivity problem
Nope. Not DNS. MTU size. Do a technet search on MTU (or check with your VPN client vendor if you're not using the built in client) and find out how to set the MTU to 1500 (we use 1400). Outlook has a nasty habit of setting the Do Not Fragment bit on communications, and sends it at the existing MTU size. The VPN client then encapulates the packet and adds to the packet size, exceeding the network's MTU. The first hop router then generates an ICMP reply basically saying the packet needs to be fragmented by DF flag is set (Don't Fragment Flag). You can test it with the following command while connected via VPN. ping -l 1536 -f ipaddress 1536 is the standard Ethernet MTU. Try dropping that to 1400 and seeing if it works.

RE: Outlook/Exchange/VPN connectivity problem
Do you have more than one IP address on your Exchange server? Or if your server is behind NAT, then it would have an internal address and external address... Here is what I am getting at. Maybe under some circumstances Outlook is trying to get to the wrong IP address. Try the HOSTS file in this format Your.server.ip.address servername servername.yourdomain.name.com This way you will make sure that both the NetBIOS name and the FQDN of your server are pointing to the same IP. -Original Message- From: Warren Cundy [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, July 18, 2003 1:06 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: Outlook/Exchange/VPN connectivity problem Hi guys, A few users are having an intermittent connectivity problem to Exchange server over a VPN connection.

RE: Back up Exchange WITHOUT backing up voice mail from Cisco Uni fied Messaging
I guess I'm not being clear. The problem is, to make Cisco's UM work properly, the user MUST be logged in with the user account/mailbox that the voice mail is going to. Lets call that: juser-v (John User - Voice) As a consequence, if the user then composes an email, because they're primarily logged into the juser-v mailbox, the sent email would end up in the Voice mailbox's sent items folder, instead of in their juser account sent item's folder. I'm trying to figure out a way around this. We want voice mail in the voice mail mailbox (including sent items), and regular email in the regular email box (including sent items.) All mail must come from the appropriate user/email address. The user must be logged in as the voice account.

weird logon issue with OWA
Hello again. Sorry for asking too many questions today. Our Exchange 2000 OWA is set up to use windows integrated authentication. Some users are reporting that when they go to OWA from their PC at work, they get prompted to enter their logon credentials. We have checked to make sure that their PCs were members of the windows domain - they are. The users don't have any problems logging onto the domain. What could be tripping IE to think that they need to authenticate?

RE: Back up Exchange WITHOUT backing up voice mail from Cisco Uni fied Messaging
Yes. Unity Messaging. What we've been told by Cisco and by the integration consultants, is that with secondary authentication as you just described it, and as we want to do, the Cisco Softphone won't a) turn on the light on the phone for voice mail's waiting, and b) Unity won't let you click on a voice mail icon in the secondary mailbox, then pick up the phone and listen to the message. It will playback over computer speakers. And you can pick up the phone directly and call the voice mail system from the phone. But you can't click the icon and have authentication flow into the phone and then just pick up the phone and listen. So we've been told.

Re: OT: Network Security...Hype?
Unclear. But a security audit from a trusted firm with an understanding that any implementations of recommendations would be done by another firm might serve to provide a more unbiased answer than what one might get from a vendor directly.

RE: Back up Exchange WITHOUT backing up voice mail from Cisco Uni fied Messaging
OK, that's a slightly different set of perspectives. It doesn't work is different to certain aspects operate differently or not at all. Redlight - works fine; I use the softphone as a secondary phone, when I'm elsewhere in the building or travelling; if I get a message, my deskphone light still comes on. Click on the message - well, if I want to listen to it through the phone, I use the phone to retrieve the message. If I click it on the screen, then I expect the playback through my speakers... So, I don't have that issue.

Gary, k. Thanks very much for your report on how it works for you. I think I'm going to implement it like you have it, which is with the secondary account for voice. If people want to listen through the phone, they can dial into the voice mail through the phone. Thanks everyone for your help.

Off Topic: Windows accounts are getting locked out by themselves
Chris, How were you able to determine that the drive mapping was causing the problem? We have a similar problem here, and can't find anything in the event logs that pinpoints the problem. It would be easy enough to test by disconnecting drive mappings, but I'd be happier if there was something definitive to verify that the drive mapping is causing the lock out. Thanks. -Original Message- From: Christopher Hummert [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, July 18, 2003 9:11 AM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: Windows accounts are getting locked out by themselves This happened to us here.

Funny thing was, all the lockouts were coming from Windows 98 workstations. I could never put my finger on it, and in desperation finally disabled account lockouts. However, invalid password attempts were still being logged in the event view. Shortly after moving the domain over to native mode, the problem all but disappeared. Now that the majority of our desktops are running Win2k, I'll probably re-enable the account lockout policy and monitor the event logs. Strangest thing, and to this day my must frustrating mystery.

In our Windows 2000 Active Directory, we implemented a lockout policy that would lock someone's account after 5 unsuccessful logon attempts. Now we are having a rash of incidents where people's accounts get locked out just like that. The users do not make any unsuccessful logon attempts, they just login normally and then the account is locked. I checked and these users are not running any services or scheduled jobs under their accounts either.
