RE: RPC over HTTP
It's a bigger issue than just people with legacy software. OWA provides anytime, anywhere access to email. If I'm at a buddy's house and I want to check my email, I don't want to have to create an Outlook profile on his computer.

Implications of moving a mailbox whose user is using Outlook 2003 in cached mode?
I am in the process of moving my Exchange 2000 users to a new Exchange 2003 server. I only have 3 users that use Outlook 2003, and 2 of those users have cached mode enabled. (Everyone else uses Outlook 2000) Based on preliminary pilot testing that I've done, I'm seeing the following behavior: The Outlook 2000 clients automatically repoint themselves at the new mailbox server the first time Outlook is launched. This is, of course, the expected behavior. The single Outlook 2003 user that is NOT using cached mode also experienced the expected behavior; He launched Outlook and it automatically pointed itself at the new Exchange server. The 2 Outlook 2003 users that are using cached mode could not get into Exchange after their mailbox was moved. The connection icon in the lower right hand corner of Outlook DID say it was connected, and when I viewed the connection status by CTRL-right-clicking the Outlook icon in the tray, it WAS correctly pointing at the new server. HOWEVER, when I viewed the account properties of the Outlook profile, it still had the old Exchange server listed, and the users were not receiving any new mail into Outlook. (Accessing their mailbox via OWA confirmed that new mail was in fact in their mailbox). In both cases, when I disabled cached mode and restarted Outlook, Outlook worked fine. I then re-enabled cached mode without incident. So, the bottom line is that my limited testing has lead me to believe that Outlook 2003 cached mode must be disabled in order for Outlook to correctly connect to Exchange after the mailbox has been moved to a new server. It can then safely be re-enabled. Is this the expected behavior?

RE: Force opening PF attachments as Read-Only?
The document management suggestion was inappropriate because we have a single document that 2 people have modify rights to and another dozen or so people can read. So deploying a DMS is an expensive solution when the problem boils down to preventing 2 people from modifying one particular file at the same time. Especially if there is an inherent method within Exchange to prevent the problem from happening in the first place, which is really all I wanted to know. Thank you for your answer though.

RE: Greg's Utterly Fascinating Views on Ethics
What does this post have to do with Exchange? Jason -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Greg Deckler Sent: Thursday, December 18, 2003 10:34 AM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: Greg's Utterly Fascinating Views on Ethics OK, for some reason beyond my comprehension people seem to have this odd fascination with my views on ethics in IT. They are so fascinated that every time I post something to this list, they bring it up. In the interests of trying to move past this, you can get your fix of my crazed views on ethics in the form of a free monthly newsletter, The IT Ethics Newsletter. Details can be found at http://www.infonition.com/ethics I have not yet covered the Conflict of Interest topic but I'm sure that it will come up eventually. Until then, here is how I see the two sides. Greg: Accepting direct gifts from third parties, especially significant gifts such as large dollar items and titles, presents a real or perceived conflict of interest between an IT professional's client (either the customer or company that he or she works for) and that third party. This is why companies have limits on the type and dollar amount of gifts that employees can accept from third parties. Because MVP is primarily a title and titles are priceless, there are obvious grounds for a potential conflict of interest. And it does not matter if the conflict of interest is real or perceived. The whole point of ethics and conflict of interest rules is to help keep people from getting into ethical trouble and to remove even the specter or impropriety. The Other Side: The MVP title is not unethical. In fact, it does not matter what you do or who you accept gifts from or what the type or dollar amount of those gifts, it will never, ever constitute a conflict of interest. Furthermore, there is really no such thing as a conflict of interest. This whole conflict of interest nonsense is, in fact, an evil plot propagated by the secretive Illuminati. Obviously, the Illuminati have corrupted Greg's brain and the brains of all of the corporations that have rules against accepting gifts. Don't become another victim! Even if God himself comes down and points out that something is obviously a potential conflict of interest, argue with God because the Illuminati have obviously gotten to him. _ 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] _ 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]

Maybe fill out one of those mailers to get a free shirt, or perhaps a free book from Cisco. My office is full of them, I get every shirt I can lay my hands on as my wife likes to use them to sleep in or when the children are playing in paint. I have a really cool shirt that looks like a bear bottle I got at Tech-Ed this year, I couldn't even tell you who the vendor is on it as I have never looked, but that shirt is setting on the top of my book shelf here in the office. Shoot I even have free gifts from vendors that I can promise you I would never use or recommend to anyone, but they are cool gifts, and hey they are free. Your argument is flawed in saying that anyone who has X (coffee cup, T-Shirt, ball, backpack, mints in tin, pen's, calendar, notepad, hat, poster,.. or any 1 of a million free gifts) is, has, might, or could one day act unethically because it might cause them to favor that vendor over another.

That's the problem with your never ending mantra about gifts and your issue about weather or not this is a conflict of interest. -Original Message- From: Greg Deckler [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, December 17, 2003 7:52 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: Migrating from GroupWise 6.5 People mis-characterize and read things into my posts that are not there. This one I have to do in-line. First of all, I've seen plenty of statements by people who accurately depict reasons that your opinion is bunk. You've either not read or not comprehended them. No one in 8 years has proven the statement flawed or illogical that when you work in an industry and accept gifts from vendors in that industry that it presents a real or perceived conflict of interest. This has been the point since day one, is the point today and will be the point tomorrow and the next day and the next. I've seen your comments repeatedly over the years, and continue to disagree with them. Its also painfully obvious to a casual observer that you're using incorrect statements in defense of your position. And ethics are not passed as laws. There is no law that a company's employees cannot accept gifts. The ethics that lawyers and doctors follow are also not laws. While this is technically accurate, in fact it is inaccurate. Both these professions require licenses to practice. Lawyers who decide to cross a relatively arbitrary line involving a conflict of interest can and have been disbarred - in other words, their license to practice law is revoked. Doctors, too, can have their medical license suspended or revoked. In either case, they are not allowed to practice their profession without that license. Ergo, those professions' codes of ethics *are*, if somewhat indirect, law. Yes, I understand and know all that, but that was not the point. Ethics go far, far beyond mere laws. Lawyers can be disbarred for ethics violations but not face any criminal prosecution. Yes, they can also be disbarred AND face criminal prosecution, but the point was made in response to an argument that indicated that ALL ethics must be legislated. Don't take things out of context. Your most asinine statements, however, are your explicit statements that being awarded a vendor sponsored honor automatically removes any and all objectivity for those on whom the honor is bestowed. The fact that you repeatedly use that argument shows me how weak your argument really is, especially since you can't show a single instance of where this actually has happened. I don't say this. I say that it is a real or perceived conflict of interest and hence a violation of basic ethics. I have stated repeatedly that MVP's may well NEVER cause anyone to ACT unethically. And guess what? It is irrelevant, it is still a real or perceived conflict of interest. What part of this are you missing? Because the MVP community is both under NDA's to Microsoft and also has private community newsgroups, you don't see that MVP's as a group are some of the most critical of Microsoft's products and policies. But none of that matters to you, because we're all just in Microsoft's pockets anyways. Its not like 12 of the 24 servers I've deployed this year run non-Microsoft OS's or anything.[1] Again, it does not matter if MVP is the greatest thing since sliced bread, results in world peace and gives every starving kid a home.

They are so fascinated that every time I post something to this list, they bring it up. In the interests of trying to move past this, you can get your fix of my crazed views on ethics in the form of a free monthly newsletter, The IT Ethics Newsletter. Details can be found at http://www.infonition.com/ethics I have not yet covered the Conflict of Interest topic but I'm sure that it will come up eventually. Until then, here is how I see the two sides. Greg: Accepting direct gifts from third parties, especially significant gifts such as large dollar items and titles, presents a real or perceived conflict of interest between an IT professional's client (either the customer or company that he or she works for) and that third party. This is why companies have limits on the type and dollar amount of gifts that employees can accept from third parties. Because MVP is primarily a title and titles are priceless, there are obvious grounds for a potential conflict of interest. And it does not matter if the conflict of interest is real or perceived. The whole point of ethics and conflict of interest rules is to help keep people from getting into ethical trouble and to remove even the specter or impropriety. The Other Side: The MVP title is not unethical. In fact, it does not matter what you do or who you accept gifts from or what the type or dollar amount of those gifts, it will never, ever constitute a conflict of interest. Furthermore, there is really no such thing as a conflict of interest. This whole conflict of interest nonsense is, in fact, an evil plot propagated by the secretive Illuminati. Obviously, the Illuminati have corrupted Greg's brain and the brains of all of the corporations that have rules against accepting gifts. Don't become another victim! Even if God himself comes down and points out that something is obviously a potential conflict of interest, argue with God because the Illuminati have obviously gotten to him. _ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Web Interface: http://intm-dl.sparklist.com/cgi-bin/lyris.pl?enter=exchanget ext_mode=lang=english To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin:[EMAIL PROTECTED] _ 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] _ 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]

This means I cannot bind to a user mailbox with my service account for maintenance or programming realated features. I tried a work arround that basically took me to the properties of an exchange store, then to the permissions. I then made a copy of the inherited permissions and allowed my service account full access to mailboxes in that store. I figgured that would be enough. We ll interrestingly enough, I have an application that counts the email (read and unread items) in a users mailbox. I have created a custom VB.Net control that I have placed on our intranet pages that shows the user how much email is in their box and how many new items. I would usually just use the account the user logged in with, but teh intranet login is fed from a SQL database and not an NTLM login. SO I dont have the real credentials of the user, just the mailbox alias. I figgured if I used the service account I could work arround the permissions issue. It works from some users but not others. All of our users that use this APP are all besed on the same server, storage group, and store. Does anyone know why I would get a login error for some accounts but not all? Timothy H.

When a mail server accepts mail for a domain external to itself, and forwards mail on to that domain, it most certainly is a relay.

RE: All .COM / .NET domain names now exist
I'm surprised how quiet this group is being regarding this issue. This has potentially enormous ramifications. For one thing, this effectively breaks reverse-DNS lookups that anti-spam applications use to verify sending domains as being valid. Come on now, Verisign is masking the difference between a valid domain and NXDOMAIN for all protocols, all users, and all software. Doesn't anyone here have an opinion? Jason -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, September 15, 2003 8:02 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: All .COM / .NET domain names now exist [My apologies for the cross-post, but this has the potential to impact just about everybody who uses the Internet...] As of a little while ago (it is around 7:45 PM US Eastern on Mon 15 Sep 2003 as I write this), VeriSign added a wildcard A record to the .COM and .NET TLD DNS zones. The IP address returned is 64.94.110.11, which reverses to sitefinder.verisign.com. What that means in plain English is that most mis-typed domain names that would formerly have resulted in a helpful error message now results in a VeriSign advertising opportunity. For example, if my domain name was somecompany.com, and somebody typed soemcompany.com by mistake, they would get VeriSign's advertising. (VeriSign is a company which purchased Network Solutions, another company which was given the task by the US government of running the .COM and .NET top-level domains (TLDs). VeriSign has been exploiting the Internet's DNS infrastructure ever since.) This will have the immediate effect of making network trouble-shooting much more difficult. Before, a mis-typed domain name in an email address, web browser, or other network configuration item would result in an obvious error message. You might not have known what to do about it, but at least you knew something was wrong. Now, though, you will have to guess. Every time. Some have pointed out that this will make an important anti-spam check impossible. A common anti-spam measure is to check and make sure the domain name of the sender really exists. (While this is easy to force, every little bit helps.) Since all .COM and .NET domain names now exist, that anti-spam check is useless.

OT: Offline files
This is way off topic, but there seems to a couple of smart people here that might know the answer to this. I have several users with Windows XP SP1 machines that have redirected their My Documents folder to their home drive, which happens to reside on a DC. Several times throughout the day, the you are now working offline balloon pops up, but the user still has full network connectivity. Within a matter of minutes, offline files indicates that the connection has been restored, and the files re-sync. I have done newsgroups searches and discovered several posts with the same scenario (XP SP1 clients with My Documents redirected to a DC). The suggested solution that I have seen involves a registry hack to disable security signatures on all DC's. I have done that (and verified that a GPO is not overwriting my resgistry mods), but it has not solved the problem. I have also seen several newsgroup posts that indicated that the registry mod does not always work. Has anyone seen this and happen to know a solution?

RE: Several questions on E2k and Active Directory
When you made the new DC a GC, did wait at least 5 minutes and then reboot it? Jason -Original Message- From: Hague, Jeff [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, August 01, 2003 12:19 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: Several questions on E2k and Active Directory Single Exch2K SP3, Win2K AD Domain, several DCs/GCs in place. I am replacing a Win2K DC which happens to be 1 of 2 GCs and holds all FSMO roles (among other things). Earlier this week, I set up the replacement server, installed AD and transferred all FSMO except PDC emulator. Yesterday I set the new DC as a GC and removed GC from the old one. Apparently this has caused Veritas Backup Exec (which also runs on the machine that used to be a GC) to fail when trying to connect to the E2K box for individual mailbox backups. Veritas suggests making sure that the E2K machine itself is a GC which of course means installing AD on it. They dont seem to offer any other suggestions... As I got to thinking about it I figured that would actually fit into my server layout pretty well. Anyway, I have searched the knowledge base articles, read the resource kit and searched back through a year of posts to this discussion list and it looks like the cons for this arrangement are performance and recovery. I dont have any performance issues - the E2K box CPU peaks at 5% occaisionally but is generally barely breathing and there is on average nearly a gig of available RAM. Drive performance is hardly utilized as well so that only leaves the recovery issue. Is this simply that it is more difficult to recover a server that does several things or is there something specific to E2K that makes recovery more difficult if it is also a DC? Also, When I view the DCs on the Directory Access Tab of my E2K servers properties, it list 1 machine as the Configuration Domain Controller. I noticed that changed when I removed GC from the original server. Does E2K pick that machine from the closest DC or what? Will that change to the E2K box itself if I make it a GC? Last question - Does anyone know of anything to look out for if I do decide to make my E2K box a DC? Thanks!

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?

Start - Run - Dcpromo Jason -Original Message- From: Doug Schaible [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, July 15, 2003 3:48 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: Exchange 2k Domain Controllers I have an Exchange 2000 Server that also happens to be a domain controller. At one time this was required because this site only had two servers and we needed a backup domain controller. Now the site has additional servers and there's no need for Exchange to sit on domain controller, besides this isn't the most preferable configuration. Does anyone know of a way of removing the domain controller attributes from the box without destroying the entire setup and rebuilding from scratch? I'd like to retain the server name if possible. The server is running Windows 2000 SP3 and is a domain controller in our domain which is running in native mode. It's also running Exchange 2000 SP3 and Post SP3 Security rollup package, also running in Exchange's native mode.

Where are the Exchange permissions coming from?
I was recently examing the Exchange 2000 environment at a new client. I ran the Delegation Wizard at the Org level to see which accounts had rights into Exchange. To my surprise, only a single ExchangeAdmin account (not a group) had been granted Exchange Full Admins rights. No other accounts were listed. Yet they have many users that have full control over the Exchange environment. When I asked them about this, they of course said that they didn't do anything, it was always like that. Upon further investigation, it appears that anyone in the Domain Admins group automatically becomes an Exchange Administrator. Since this is not configured from the Exchange Delegation Wizard, it's obviously being picked up somewhere else. Any idea's where I can check?

EMail addresses not being created on new mailboxes
I'm running into a situation at a client where email addresses never get generated on any new mail-enabled user or group. We've waited as long as overnight and still no email addresses. But if we restart the System Attendant, the addresses appear in a matter of minutes. The environment is as follows: 3 AD sites with Exchange servers in each site. 1 routing group. DC's in each site. A RUS has been created for a DC in each site. All servers are Windows 2000 SP3, Exchange 2000 SP3 plus the post-SP3 rollup. This is a clean environment, the entire dealio is less than a month old. Any idea's?

RE: best linux av?
Do you really think that the *ONLY* possible way a virus can get into your Exchange environment is through your SMTP gateway? Let's say a user uses Outlook to POP an email from their personal account into their Exchange mailbox, and that email is infected. Or let's say that a user downloads a file from the Internet that infects their Exchange mailbox. Now what? Since you don't have any mailbox-level virus protection, you have to sit there and watch this thing propagate to all your users and infect all your mailboxes. But at least your gateway will clean it before it sends it out to your customers.

RE: Smarthost question
-Original Message- When I configure the SMTP Virtual Server to send all mail to the eSafe Smarthost first, no mail routes to Site2. Why are you messing with the SMTP Virtual Server properties? Do you have an SMTP Connector? In order to get your situation to work, all you have to do is create an SMTP Connector that forwards to your smarthost. You don't need to do anything on the SMTP Virtual Servers.
