RE: How do You guys/gals handle this: OWA Hanging.
Just to throw in a few cents that might not help: Could you schedule a stop services on the owa server when you take the server offline? This doesn't solve much, but at least gives you control over the restart and limits the down period. Especially if your routine maintenance is changed to say weekly and occurs at a off-peak period for a limited time. Then at least everything is automated and comes back up on its own. -Original Message- From: John Strongosky [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, June 13, 2003 12:59 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: How do You guys/gals handle this: OWA Hanging.

RE: Problems logging off OWA
This was in the last MSD2D and might help What to do if OWA Users Can't Logoff One of our clients called recently to seek our help with a troubling problem: The OWA logoff button was prompting their users for their credentials and failing to log them off of OWA. The problem was first reported by the Senior Vice President of Business Development. She was at a meeting with a key business partner when she decided to use one of their computers to check her email via OWA. However, when she attempted to logoff from OWA using the logoff shortcut she was prompted to re-enter her login credentials. Thinking she was now off, she left the station! The severity of the problem was compounded by the fact that the purpose of the meeting was to discuss a possible merger, and her email account contained many sensitive messages related to the merger. Problem: Unexpected prompts can cause users to become confused or frustrated and inadvertently create a security risk. This problem occurs when the IIS Directory Security is improperly configured with authentication settings that do not match. When this happens, users will be prompted for credentials unexpectedly. These unexpected prompts can happen in a variety of circumstances, such as the case of a user who is trying to logoff. Solution: OWA needs access to the virtual directories with one credential (single sign-on). In the case where OWA is running on a front-end server, successful user logoff requires the disabling of Integrated Windows Authentication on the server/Default Web Site/Exchweb/bin Virtual Directory. For all OWA servers, Front-End or otherwise, the authentication settings for the following three virtual directories must be configured identically: server/Default Web Site/Exchange server/Default Web Site/Public server/Default Web Site/Exchweb/bin Click http://www.messageware.com/owatips/ for a free step-by-step guide on configuring virtual directories and other useful OWA TIPS. -Original Message- From: Clishe, Jason [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, April 03, 2003 7:21 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: Problems logging off OWA I've seen all sorts of newsgroup posts about people having problems logging off OWA, but I've never been able to find a resolution.

Cached web pages, etc. on the workstation. User walks away without closing the browser, the next user has access to the previous users' email. 2. Stealth keyboard capture program grabs userids and passwords. It seems like there is a common train of thought about remote OWA that 'It is only email, what is the worst that could happen?'

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. Is your FEP using static IP's - not DHCP - just thinking about lease renewals.

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.

Greg, 1. Do they go through a Front End? 2. Is the Front End set for Basic Authentication. Check Exchange, Exchweb/bin, Public 3. Does it work if they access Public? //server/public 4.

Just to clarify RFC821 versus RFC822 It is true that RFC821 DOES NOT allow this character in the destination headers. However, RFC822 DOES allow this character. In fact there are follow-on RFCs that describe Quoted-Printable for the 822 headers. So, you should be able to have the descriptive name match even though the underlying routing name does not.

Furthermore, if you attempt to send to an email address with an ñ I get an NDR from my own categorizer for the same reason. However, this user insists that at his last firm his actual email address was [EMAIL PROTECTED] but that anyone and everyone could email him to user_ñ@test.com and it would be converted and he'd get the email. His old firm used Exchange 5.0 (with a spanish installation) which was before my time but since 5.0 loosely followed RFC's was it possible to do what he's saying happened from either Exchange or the OS installation? I've called PSS and all they said was that it's not possible now but they could not answer if it was possible at one time.

RE: Catch All...
Exactly, these RFC sections indicate that the SMTP server is responsible for the delivery of the message and the message itself must never be lost prior to delivery to the destination system. The RFC is not broken because: a) the message is at its ultimate destination - domain.com b) The message is delivered to a mailbox It is not for the RFC to try to define or distinguish one mailbox from another, especially based on the user part. By-the-way it further defines that an NDR should never be sent in response to a status report (empty RFC821 From address) to avoid potential message loops.

That was never the point. But, just like a MAPI session, you should be able to do a synch while in browse mode on OWA. I'm puzzled by this approach, Craig. Let's say you're at an airport kiosk. You're going to download the synch file, then what? Copy it to a floppy? What if it's more that 1.44MB? What if the kiosk doesn't have a floppy drive? If you're using a PDA, how do you transfer the file to there? OTOH, let's say you're hooked into a WLAN in the Executive Lounge from your own laptop or PDA. You can then fire up your VPN software, connect into your LAN and synch using the copy of Outlook on your PC. If you don't use Outlook, as many others have pointed out, you can use an IMAP client. Synchronization to an OST presumes that you have Outlook installed, so why re-create the wheel? OWA was built to be run from any browser anywhere (I can even convince Opera to load it if I work at it), but like most Web-based services, presumes a connection for the duration of the session. I don't get it. Why are you guys arguing in favor of keeping a small and extremely useful feature out of the product? Is it a we're tough, we can take it sort of thing, or what? Implementation of this isn't trivial, and there already exist multiple better ways to do what you want. So why would Microsoft spend money developing another one? Or maybe it is that you've bought into the view that small machines should only be used as companions to real machines. Well, no. If you have an IMAP/MAPI client and a Web browser on your handheld you're in good shape. But your Web browser sucks as a mailtool, so why not use the IMAP/MAPI client? Sheesh, I thought that attitude died back in the 80's when the mainframe crowd tried to convince everyone that OV, HP Desk and All-In-1 were the real workgroup messaging systems, and that LAN mail should be relegated to simple departmental messaging only tasks.
