RE: SSL and OWA

2002-12-30 Thread Ferneyhough, Dan
I see they offer wildcard certs as well.  Has anyone used wildcard certs
successfully with IIS 5.0?  

I attempted to use one when Win2k first came out (no SPs) and could not get
it to work.  At the time there was a knowledge-base article indicating that
although Microsoft did no agree with wildcard certs, they would provide
support in SP1.  SP1 came and went with no mention of wildcard cert support.
I did some more searching recently and still could not find anything
official about MS supporting them.  If anyone has done this successfully,
I'd be interested to hear about it.

Thanks

That's what I was going to do but a cert from quality ssl is trusted by 99%

Don't buy a SSL Cert.  Just windows 2000 cert services to create your own.
The only difference is that the user's browser will nag them about the cert,
but they just have to answer yes and it works fine.

 Hello,
 I'm in the process of buying a certificate to secure an Outlook web 
 access page and part of the process is entering a site name. This site 
 has no dns site name, it's accessed via a link on our company web page 
 that's hosted by our ISP.
 
 Should I assign a dns name for this server or should I put in the 
 netbios name of the server?
 
 I'm just looking for some suggestions as this is the first server I'm 
 securing with SSL.
 
 Thanks again,
 Mike.

Kerberos KDC with Exchange 5.5, Win2K and Veritas BackupExec

2002-06-26 Thread Ferneyhough, Dan

I am currently migrating some Exchange 5.5 users to some new hardware.  The
new system is running Exchange 5.5 SP4 on Win2k Adv Server SP2.  The server
is a member server in an NT 4 domain (they are not quite ready for AD here
yet).  I was hoping someone could clarify some confusing information in the
KB articles regarding the Kerberos KDC.

Initially the Kerberos KDC was giving the following errors at startup:

  Service Control Manager - Event 7023 
  The Kerberos Key Distribution Center service terminated with the following
error: 
  The security account manager (SAM) or local security authority (LSA)
server was in the wrong state to perform the security operation. 

Q295381 states that the Kerberos KDC should not be enabled on member servers
so I disabled it.  Since disabling the service, we have been getting a
number of the following events:

  MrxSmb - Event 3034
  The redirector was unable to initialize security context or query context
attributes.

According to Q316710, having the Kerberos KDC service disabled will cause
this error and can prevent E2K services from starting up.  There is no
mention in Q316710 of only enabling the service if E2k is on a Win2K DC and
no mention of any potential problems with Exchange 5.5.  As far as I know,
it is not possible to run Kerberos KDC in an NT4 Domain so Q295381 should
hold true in this case and I have left the service disabled. 

We have been experiencing some performance problems on this server where the
server will periodically stop responding for about 5 - 10 seconds and then
continue functioning normally.  Thanks to eventid.net, we have now
determined that these slowdowns correspond with the MrxSmb events and that
these events correspond directly with when backup operations are initiated
against the server.  The server is being backed up using Veritas Backup Exec
8.5 and a corresponding DCOM error occurs on the backup server
(http://seer.support.veritas.com/docs/238513.htm).

We have been in touch with Veritas on this issue and so far have had little
success in getting a resolution.  There is one article in their knowledge
base describing something very similar (MrxSmb 3034 errors) but it is
apprantly only caused by a System State backup whereas we are seeing it with
all backup operations (online Exchange backups included).  The workaround
proposed by Veritas is to install Certificate Services on the remote server
(the Exchange server in this case) as the backup job is apparantly making a
call to the Certificate Service to see if it should back up the database.
According to the article, this only occurs with the System State backup and
we are seeing it much more often than that.  IMO, installing Certificate
server on every Win2K member server in our NT4 domain is not a very
reasonable workaround to this issue and I have my doubts that it will even
resolve the issue since it is occurring with all backup jobs.  

At this point the whole issue appears to be directly related to the Veritas
BackupExec software but I was wondering if anyone else had experienced
anything similar and if they had any other potential solutions.  I have not
yet had a chance to verify my suspicions that NTBackup will not produce the
same errors but that will be next on my list if Veritas does not provide
anything useful.

Any other suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

If you're referring to the razler.com domain, it's most liklely a reverse

valid reverse lookup.  Cox.net is probably checking for a valid reverse

RE: ESE98 ?

2001-12-28 Thread Ferneyhough, Dan

Before taking any potentially long and laborious steps (like installing a
new server and moving users over), see if running NTBackup against the
Exchange server produces the same errors.  In the past, I have seen
BackupExec (not NetBackup - haven't used that product) produce this error
erroneously.  NTBackup worked just fine.  

After demonstrating to Veritas that this was not a store corruption issue,
they walked us through some more detailed troubleshooting steps and
eventually determined that a DLL was out of date and caused the error.

I wouldn't run eseutil unless it was my only choice.

IIf you're running the Enterprise version of Exchange, it's simplest to
create a new private store and move the mailboxes to the new store; the
database will then hold fresh copies of all of the data.  If you're
running the Standard version of Exchange 2000, you'd need to add another
server to the site for the mailboxes to move to. 

One thing that I think would be interesting is if you check the SIS ratio
before and after the mailbox moves; there's some question to how SIS is
retained in such moves these days.

Subject: ESE98 ?


Hi All,

Whilst troubleshooting my NetBackup for Exchange, I revealed database issues
on my server.  Any suggestions as to how to deal with this w/o the backup it
suggests?

Currently I only have 8 users on this box and all use it daily with success.
The Veritas tech suggested that I run the eseutil's and export all the
mailboxes to a new Information Store.

Thanks in Advance and I hope you holiday's are happy :)

Fred

Free/Busy Performance

2001-12-05 Thread Ferneyhough, Dan

We are considering implementing implementing a policy to globally increase
the amount of Calendar free/busy data published by Outlook.  The problem is
that we require our resources (meeting rooms etc) and those who directly
book them to have this setting at 12 months so our only option for a global
setting would be 12 months as well.  I have read articles in the past
indicating that boosting the Publish Free/Busy Info setting too high may
have perforance impacts but I am not sure how real this potential is.  

Has anyone else globally increased this number to 10 or 12 months and seen a
real performance hit or are the warnings in the articles purely based on a
theoretical performance impact?

Thanks

RE: EX5.5 Server just froze up - would post SP4 patches help?

2001-10-29 Thread Ferneyhough, Dan

If there's no indication of problems with the disk, try checking the
transaction logs to see if a large number of logs were generated in a short
period of time corresponding to the hang.  I've seen instances where 5.5 SP4
servers become unresponsive to clients as a result of someone attempting to
send a *huge* attachment (500Mb+) and it bogged down the server.  If this
does prove to be the case then consider implementing internal message size
limits.

Dollars to donuts your HD went belly-up[1].

At least that would be the first thing to check on a perfectly running
Exchange server that nobody's been monkeying with.  

Check your event/RAID logs (whichever is appropriate).

Our exchange 5.5 server with sp4 installed just froze up.  It was not
responding to outlook clients and the cursor was not responsive.  I had to
resort to the reset button to restart it.  Is is possible that a malformed
mail message could have caused this?  Is there a post SP4 patch that might
help?  This server has never locked up like this in the last 2 years, and
nothing has changed recently.
