Exchange Conference Server
Hi folks, I'm currently looking into the E2K conferencing server product for our organisation, maybe looking to supplement some Tandberg video conferencing kit we're getting for conference rooms. There seems to be a lack of information on the Microsoft site about this product. I'm after user experiences and maybe integration issues. Does anybody have any experiences they wish to share. My feelings are that Microsoft are not putting too much effort into this product and that it's not a serious contender. I'd be very grateful for your comments.

RE: Editing Inbox Contents
hi ed, i don't see a problem with editing inbox contents, in fact i find it to be a useful feature. however, one of our site managers expressed the opinion that someone could falsify the contents of a recieved message (say from a customer) in order to get away with something. What does skive mean? sorry, english slang here. Skiving (sky-ving) means not doing any work, or not even turning up for work 'Where's the admin gone, is he skiving off somewhere?' 'I'm so tired after last night, I might skive off work today'. dan. There are seldom good technological solutions to behavioral problems.

Mailbox Manager Question
We're running a single Exchange 2000 SP1 server. A couple of weeks ago I enabled Mailbox Manager on it. Following the directions in the July issue of Exchange Administrator Magazine, I set it up to run on Saturday at midnight, and told it to delete anything in the Inbox, Sent Items, and Deleted Items folders that is older than 30 days. I also set it to send me a detailed report. Everytime it runs, though, all I get is this: The Microsoft Exchange Server Mailbox Manager has completed processing mailboxes Started at: Tuesday, September 25, 2001 2:31:02 AM Completed at: Tuesday, September 25, 2001 2:31:05 AM Mailboxes processed:0 Messages moved: 0 Size of moved messages: 0.00 KB Deleted messages: 0 Size of deleted messages: 0.00 KB Any ideas where I might have gone wrong?

Move Mailbox Transfer Rate
Hi All I know one should not generalise and each system is different. I acknowledge these two factors, but does anyone have any stats on the average transfer speed they obtained while doing a move mailbox. The servers in question are not in my site so I cannot quickly run a test. The servers are on a 100 MB switch.The total mail store is approx 40 GB. I would like to calculate an approx time needed to move mailboxes this way, exmerge is not an option as the original store has corruptions in it. I need to check after each mailbox if the new store is still consistent. Any info is appreciated.

RE: Exchange 2000 Background Sync
Yes, that is the exact error. We suspected a DNS error and have made sure that the Exchange servers are properly listed in DNS. As an additional measure, we have added local host files to a few users to see if that made a difference. Again, we have the same result - sometimes it works, sometimes not.

Ladies and Gentlemen of the list , here's my situation in brief: Yesterday someone on our network was infected with the Nimda virus (through an infected web page and unpatched IE 5.01 install, but that's beside the point)... I had Netshield 4.5 running on our main file server, set to email me when a virus was found on the system... Within 5 minutes, I had over 8000 email messages from the scanner, from the infected machine trying to put .eml files onto the server. Now my mailbox is VERY slow... I've tried opening my mailbox with Outlook XP and Outlook 2000, also tried connecting to it with Outlook Express and IMAP, but IMAP was only downloading like 1 message per second (even though I set it to only download headers, on a 100 Mbit network connection!) When trying to delete the 8000 messages with OL XP, between each deletion I get the dialog stating that Outlook is retrieving data from the Microsoft Exchange server etc and pauses for 20-25 seconds between each message deletion... It gives me an estimated time remaining of 39 hours! Can anybody give me an idea how to best clear these things out of my mailbox, or why it's choking so bad on these messages, they're each only 560-580 bytes (plain text messages)...

RE: ASP 0115 Errors on OWA
I got these at one time too, and saved this article MS wrote awhile back: The Dreaded ASP 0115 Error error 'ASP 0115' Unexpected error /Web Name/ASP file name.asp A trappable error occurred in an external object. The script cannot continue running. If you get this error message, you have a leg up on this process. When the error is displayed on the returned ASP page, you now know two things: what page it was that caused the problem to occur that an exception occurred in an external object If knowing the page that is causing the problem is enough for you to figure out the problem, then you don't need to go any further. However, if this is not the case for you, take a look at the second bit of information that this error gives us. This error tells you that an exception occurred in an external object. Well, that is great information, right? All you need to do is to remove all calls to external objects on the page and see if it fails. This is usually not possible since removing all Server.CreateObject statements in an ASP page would leave your page with only the intrinsic objects, such as Application, Session, Request, and Response. ASP's power comes from being able to create an instance of any Active Server Component or COM object. If you remove all calls to external objects, this leaves you with a pretty boring page. ASP considers any object that it creates with a Server.CreateObject statement to be an external object.

We have not used any other anti-virus software to protect the server or operating system itself. Three years ago when the Exchange systems were being installed it was known that file scanning anti-virus software could or would corrupt information store files and perhaps log files as well. The architect recommended that no anti-virus software be installed at that time. Desktops and other servers are protected with file scanning anti-virus software which is updated nightly. We have been asked / directed to install server file scanning software (NAI) on our Exchange servers. This weekend I have been running it in the lab on an Exchange server and have excluded the partition with the information store and the partition with the log files. Can you tell me what the consensus is on this issue and do you run server anti-virus software along with Exchange aware anti-virus software. Thanks.

RE: ASP 0115 Errors on OWA
Yuck 0115 errors suck. Most of my random ASP 0115 errors went away with some permission changes. Why permission changes fix RANDOM errors I will never know, but it did help us. The following blurb is from this article: http://support.microsoft.com/directory/article.asp?ID=KB;EN-US;Q194190 Permission and authentication issues with files and registry keys Errors may occur if the authenticated user does not have sufficient permissions on other files such as custom components, system dynamic- link libraries (DLLs), and even registry keys. ASP scripts are typically executed in the security context of the IUSR_machine_name account. If you believe you are dealing with a permissions problem in the registry, you can use Regedt32.exe to examine permissions on the various registry keys. In particular, you may want to look at ODBC, Jet, ADO, and other keys that might be relevant to the problem. If you have a computer that is working properly, try comparing key permissions between the two computers. The first step is to determine if you really are seeing a permissions problem. A good test is to temporarily add the anonymous logon account (IUSR_machine_name) to the administrators group using User Manager. This gives the IUSR_machine_name account administrative privileges on the computer. If this causes ASP to function properly, you are almost certainly dealing with a permissions issue. NOTE : When you have finished debugging, be sure to remove the IUSR_machine_name account from the Administrators group to minimize the security risk on your server. -Original Message- From: John Matteson [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, September 25, 2001 11:13 AM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: ASP 0115 Errors on OWA Good morning to you all: After closing all watertight doors and hatches and weathering the latest virus storms, we started having problems with our OWA server.

Using your scenario as a guide, your internal mail server would need a lower MX record preference than your external server. Mail would get delivered to the External relay, and since its not the lowest preference, it would queue the mail. When the internal (lowest preference) server is ready to receive mail, it connects to the external relay and issues a single command (ETRN, I believe), and the *disconnects*. That one command tells the external (relay) server to start delivery of all messages queued for that domain. WHich means that the external server attempts to connect to the internal server and deliver mail, meaning that the firewall needs to allow connections from the outside to the inside. Additionally, by queuing it outside the firewall, you are leaving corporate information on the wrong side of your firewall for an extended period of time. Not good practice, frankly.

RE: anti-virus protection for Exchange server os
MS says Critical... apply patch, and I patch. Period. Exchange is so intensive that we don't want anything else running on it. Increasing the responsibilities of the server increases the points of vulnerability. Every function has a vulnerability, and every vulnerability has a defense. If you are going to mix functions of a server, it's only good sense to make certain that everything plays well together.

We have not used any other anti-virus software to protect the server or operating system itself. Three years ago when the Exchange systems were being installed it was known that file scanning anti-virus software could or would corrupt information store files and perhaps log files as well. The architect recommended that no anti-virus software be installed at that time. Desktops and other servers are protected with file scanning anti-virus software which is updated nightly. We have been asked / directed to install server file scanning software (NAI) on our Exchange servers. This weekend I have been running it in the lab on an Exchange server and have excluded the partition with the information store and the partition with the log files.

Yes. Still on. Here is what I got from them: September 11 was a day of shock and sadness for people around the world. Our hearts go out to all those who have been affected by this terrible tragedy. As you know, President Bush and other global and national leaders urged that the business and economic activities of this nation and the global economy must continue, even as we all work together to address the terrible human costs of the September 11th tragedy. The reopening of the financial markets is just one step in resuming the economic activities of our nation. After long consideration, we have decided to move forward with the MEC 2001 in Orlando, Florida, on September 30th through October 4th as scheduled. Based on input from travel industry and government officials, we strongly believe that national and international air transportation, hotels and other support services will be fully operational before the MEC 2001 conference opens. All MEC 2001 keynotes, sessions, functions and special events will take place as scheduled.

RE: Exchange Clients SLOW - Please HELP!
I have NetSheild running on the servers, but have turned off email alerts because of the great number of messages caused by Nimda yesterday... I have Groupshield Exchange running on the server to stop Nimda from coming in via email... Neither has reported a hit of Nimda since late yesterday afternoon. I am still receiving and am able to send email from my account, using my workstation with OL2000 but again it's so slow as to almost be unusable (though it's how I'm communicating with the list)... I have another machine set up with my mailbox and a mailbox rule going through my Inbox deleting each message created by the flood yesterday because if I try to delete the entire group of messages at once, Outlook hangs (I left it run overnight and it claimed that it was going to take 264 hours to delete the messages when I came in this morning!)... So that's why I created the rule... I'm just hoping that after all the messages are deleted (or I'm guessing there's one specific message that's causing all the problems) that things will return to normal, but I was hoping there was another way / something else I could do to get things back to normal ASAP.

RE: anti-virus protection for Exchange server os
I'm not interested in arguing either... Now for my rebuttal... No server is bullet proof unless it is disconnected from the network and turned off. Now for having a file based scanner, you also have to consider the costs, both hidden and unhidden. There is the extra processor utilization, there is the actual cost of a license for the software and probably a few other things I'm not thinking of off hand. The other thing I would mention, is how would a virus get to your exchange server if that is all it is. If the server only services Exchange, then there should be no worry about file based viruses getting to the server and being executed. I understand your theory of protection, but I think on the Exchange server itself, you're taking it too far. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] On Behalf Of Brian Ko Sent: Tuesday, September 25, 2001 10:19 AM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: anti-virus protection for Exchange server os Don, Hi!

Re: Exchange System Attendant not starting. - SOLVED!!
Thanks to everyone for there help last month with the problem I had with the ESA not starting. I finally had to call PSS to solve it. I have included the original message below for reference. The key was the statement regarding missing protocol sequences. I have copied the registry entries that were missing from the server that we reinstalled. Here they are: [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Rpc\ClientProtocols] ncacn_np=rpcrt4.dll ncacn_ip_tcp=rpcrt4.dll ncadg_ip_udp=rpcrt4.dll ncacn_nb_tcp=rpcrt4.dll ncacn_http=rpcrt4.dll Once these were installed into the registry, we were fine, and the ESA started right up. Thanks again for everyone's help. W. Andy Roche Systems Administrator Liberty Christian Center http://www.lcc-omaha.org [EMAIL PROTECTED] ** Original Message ** I am supporting a site that is running Windows 2000 and Exchange 2000. I personally know next to nothing about supporting Exchange, but I am stuck trying. I very much need some help here. Last week the server decided that it would run for no more than 30 minutes at a time, then crash. I trouble shot it, and it turned out to be the hard drive. No problem, except that the current hardware doesn't support the new hard drive. No problem, we put in new hardware. Now Win2K would crash, with an inaccessible boot device. I finally got the new drive to load Win2K on the new system by reinstalling Win2K, and then cloned it onto the new drive. Now however, the Exchange System Attendant service won't start. It has 3 entries in the Application event log. 1) Time: 19:09 Event ID: 1000 Microsoft Exchange System Attendant is starting. Microsoft Exchange Server System Attendant, service startup complete, version 6.0 (build 4417.0) 2) Time: 19:09 Event ID: 1005 Unexpected Error. There are no protocol sequences. Facility Win32 ID no: c00706b7 Microsoft Exchange System Attendant occurred. 3) Time: 19:09 Event ID: 1004 Microsoft Exchange System Attendant failed to start. I have search the Online Knowledge base, but in this case, it should be called the Online Lack-Of-Knowledge Base. :) I would be willing to remove Exchange and reinstall it, but when I try to remove Exchange, I get the following statement. The component 'Microsoft Exchange Messaging and Collaboration Services' cannot be assigned the action 'Remove because: - One or more users currently use a mailbox store on this server. These users must be moved to a mailbox store on a different server or be mail disabled before uninstalling this server.

Be sure the service is running, and you have network connectivity to the Microsoft Exchange Server computer. Operation: retrieving mount information ID no: c1041721 Exchange System Manager I know that the Information Store service is dependent on the System Attendant, so this is probably an expected error under the circumstances.

Store.exe is taking 100%
The store on one box is taking 100% of one CPU. We had a student this morning that sent a message to all the students on campus about 8000 mailboxes. The message contain voting buttons, delivery receipt, and read receipt. I recalled the message but the server continues at 100% on one of the processors of the server. The other one goes between 70%-100%. Does anyone have any ideas on what to check for.

What I don't want is to make this as argument. I am just saying that I would run File Based A/V product to increase the protection of Exchange server. You can't really say your server is bullet proof. Maybe it is at the time, but what if/when there's a new threat for security holes. A/V may not be able to protect it, but it certainly may decrease the chance of getting infected (IMO). You think that file based A/V products corrupt Exchange database? Well, Not if people install it properly and run it properly. Exchange Virus product companies support File Based A/V products. Microsoft does not say you can not install File Based A/V products on Exchange server, do they? If they do, please let me know. If you are happy with not running file based A/V products on your Exchange server, that's okay with me. I am just happy running file based A/V product along email virus product on my Exchange server. And this is supported by my A/V vendor.

imap public folder
How can I move the root of an Imap public folder. The real problem is that we moved public folders to a new server but after stopping all exchange services in the root server , the clients can not access to any Public Folder because we can use only one root. The root was created in one server that we will desinstall ¿¿will it be changed after the desinstallation?? _ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Archives: http://www.swynk.com/sitesearch/search.asp To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin:[EMAIL PROTECTED]

Exchange Server event script
Hello all. I'm new to the scripting side of exchange and am having problems with trying to find examples of VB code or how to accomplish the following: 1. When an email is posted into a public folder a script is run to copy a text file attached to the email to a network share. 2. Next copy the email to another folder within the public folder. 3. Then (if possible) get the script to run a batch file. Please could anyone advise how to do the above, if I can sort out how to do the first 2 I'll be the happy!!

MAIL FROM RCPT TO Info
G'day, Does anyone know if it's possible to have the IMC generate RFC822 headers based on the RFC821 'MAIL FROM' and 'RCPT TO' information? I was thinking something along the lines of 'X-Sender:' and 'X-Receiver:' headers with the actual values used in the RFC821 part of the SMTP conversation.. This would be particularly useful when a spammer includes no (or forged) RFC822 'To:' header and you've got multiple SMTP proxy addresses. I realise I can turn on logging but I was hoping for a solution that wouldn't involve leaving Outlook in order to see the values. Obviously I would prefer this to happen with the IMC and not have to stick another SMTP gateway in front of Exchange. Cheers, Dale PS: Please directly copy me on any replies.

RE: anti-virus protection for Exchange server os
I understand both your points. I, myself, think there is some merit to having file-based scanners. We recently just started using them on our Exchange servers, and I must admit that I was rather shocked to find several viruses on our server. They were all rather harmless, but I was still glad that we had installed the File-based A/V installed. That being said, I also do not recommend, nor would I ever, scan the Exchange directories.
