RE: Backing up Exchange 5.5
Hi Guys, Add me to the list of greivances.. Welcome to the club of arcserve victims. call them up.. particularly if you are a user from a country like Cyprus and they give you telephone numbers to all the centers in the world.. where you are greeted saying either.. well we dont have a support center here.. call this number ... or they send you a link to a page.. that is completely meaningless to the issue... Why do people still buy Arcserve... I am gonna suggest Veritas to the management ..Arcserve looses one more client. -Original Message- From: Robert Moir [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, October 04, 2002 11:37 AM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: Backing up Exchange 5.5 -Original Message- From: Fioon [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: 04 October 2002 09:07 To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: Backing up Exchange 5.5 It's BrightStor , same under CA .. Is ArcServe 2000 really that bad ? No. It's worse. I've just tried, and it turned out not too bad. On the middle of discussing want to purchase or not !! Ok, so it has a pretty looking backup routine. You can restore a few files from it. Now test if you can do a full disaster recovery bare metal server back to fully working with it. A surprisingly high number of people struggle to do this despite jumping through every hoop in the CA book. And the licencing doesn't work properly so prepare for lots of random failures to backup when the licence decides to fail because it's bored. Thanks to my boss, I had to use it for exchange and SQL backups in the past and it never ever worked properly to the point where I could trust it to work on backing things up unsupervised, and I never trusted it to restore properly either after many bad experiences.

RE: Backing up Exchange 5.5
First to address Karons Issue of only backing up the mailboxes incase of a server crash.. you will notbe able to recover the priv and pub databases... so it is wise to backup atleast once the databases... so that in case there is a server crash you can first restore the database.. and then restore the mailboxes from the most recent backup the mailbox backups.. as far as I can recall cannot be used to restore a dead server with failed or corrupt databases. The second issue of Fioon being able to perfomr a full disaster recovery... and adding chorus to Robert's woes... we have a tape library and using arcserve for th ebackup.. yes I was able to perfomr a disaster recovery as well... but only for the local machine... and none of the network machines so far have been able to come back on the disaster recovery. Another thing... for the disaster recovery to work.. CA says that you have to make a full backup with the arcserve agent on the remote machine.. that is all that is needed they said to make the disaster recovery kit... MICROSOFT SAYS FOR THE EXCHANGE SERVER THE M: IS A VIRTUAL DRIVE AND DO NOT... REPEAT DO NOT ATTEMPT TO BACKUP OF PERFORM ANTIVIRUS SCANS CA HAS MENTIONED NOTHING ABOUT THAT SO FAR. POint number 2 noticed... though I succesfully staged the disaster recovery for the local machine on which the tape library is installed which incidentally hosts.. win 2k server note:WIN2K Server, at the time of the disaster recovery i was asked to pop in the CD for WIN2K ADVANCED SERVER Please pop in your win2K Advanced Server CD says the dialog box... Ok now me thinks that this is a typo error and instead doesnt want to listen to CA and pop in win2k server |CD instead... but the machine spits it out saying.. no way can I have that.. now be a good boy and pop in the advanced server CD... so I scramble my kit for the evaluation advanced server CD and pop it in thinking it aint gonna work either... but hey presto... it worked and there me completed the staging process of the disaster recovery, wondering if its Microsoft that more bizzare or ArcServe. and me still suspicious that Bill Gates might have bought some stocks for ArcServe. Anyways... no point boring you with my tragic story. But me is still working on resolving the issue of being able to perform remote disaster recovery..

RE: Backing up Exchange 5.5
In Continuation to my ranting Network machines... in the sense that the tape lirary is attahced to server A, and I tried to perfomr disaster recovery by backing up Server B, C D and E... over the Network.. since those poor buggars dont have a local backup device attached to them,.. I performed a full backup for all the machines.. created the boot disks... and tried to recover the lost souls... but after booting from the boot floppy, it kept searching for the backup device for an eternity... now I still dont understand why there is no special wizard with arcserve disaster recovery... to create the boot kit for a machine that you backedup on the network.. they provide only one wizard that supposedly creates boot kits for machines with local backup device connected as well as machines that are being backed up on the networksince for a mchine to be able to connect to the remote backup device.. they need the network drivers... I dont know if the boot kit creates them... generic that is... not even bothering to ask what kind of network card exists on my remote machines. scared to ask CA this question.. since they ask you to pay first and then ask your stupid question later. -Original Message- From: Fioon [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, October 04, 2002 12:30 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: Backing up Exchange 5.5 Hi Muqeem, 1.

Hide IP Address from the Mail Headers

RE: Hide IP Address from the Mail Headers
Nope Eugene, check the mail again.. I am looking for hiding IP addresses from the mail headers... not the OWA thing. BTW.. I was the one who had suggested checking the IIS log files for the IP addresses of people who log on to the network for the mail server access... Another thing that Brian should do when checking the logs is to check for the destination of the URL request... which says what information the user is requesting for. -Original Message- From: McCarthy, Eugene (AFIT) [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, July 16, 2002 12:52 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: Hide IP Address from the Mail Headers Are you the guy Brian Cooke (Re, Tracking OWA Logons) is looking for??? -Original Message- From: Muqeem Syed [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, July 16, 2002 9:55 AM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: Hide IP Address from the Mail Headers Does anyone know how to hide the IP Address information from being shown on the Mail headers, Also .. by hiding this information will the remote mail server process the request of mail delivery, since the IP address information is not sent across and the remote mail server might see this as some form of an attack...??? _ 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] _ 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] _ 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]

What kind of vulnerabilities have u discovered, I would appreciate if you could share that info with the list.

I have worked on SOlaris as well... so please no cursing on microsofft alone.. lots a timess theres so many apps that cause memory leaks on solaris as well.. and the resolution was to be able to locate the app and fix the bugs on it. -Original Message- From: Soysal, Serdar [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, April 24, 2002 7:50 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: scheduling automatic rebooting of server Rebooting servers periodically is not a solution; it is just burying your head in the sand and pretending everything is fine. If that is acceptable/expected quality of service in your environment, then I guess it's ok.

It could undoubtedly be tweaked for what you want. It shuts down the MSX services before the reboot (and verifies that they do indeed stop). After the reboot is complete, it verifies that any service running at the time of reboot is running after the reboot. Sends email showing the results. -Original Message- From: James Cornett [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, April 24, 2002 10:34 AM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: scheduling automatic rebooting of server Does anyone know how to schedule the automatic rebooting of Windows 2000 Servers. I have looked on the their website and have found next to nothing about how to do this. What I am trying to do is on our Mail server I want to have the machine reboot say every Sunday night at a certain time. If anyone knows how to do this in Windows 2000 I would greatly appreciate the information. _ James Cornett Network Administrator New Israel Fund 1101 14th Street, NW Sixth Floor Washington, DC 20005 Phone: 202-842-0900 ext. 269 Fax: 202-842-0991 [EMAIL PROTECTED] www.newisraelfund.org _ 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] _ 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] -- The information contained in this email message is privileged and confidential information intended only for the use of the individual or entity to whom it is addressed.
