    - Migration - Distribution/Security groups? We successfully migrated from an NT 4 domain to a W2K3 domain (native mode) and from Exchange 5.5 to Exchange 2003 (native mode). In the old domain, we had a security group (many) with the same name as a distribution list (many). Now, the distribution lists do not work. We would like to continue to use the old names for the Distribution list and create new or rename the Security Groups. Can we change the Group Type from Security to Distribution? Or, can we rename the Security Group? Tag: Front-end Exchange Tag: 126951

    - OWA Access Hi All I am running in an Exchange 2003 server environment, where I have one front end server and two back end servers to service my end users. I have OWA enabled for the users and they are using Forms Based Authentication. Using the tutorial I ammended the login.asp file to allow users to log into OWA using simply their username and password, however after the ammendents users still have to type their domain\username and password to login. Please note that the login screen oly shows the username and password but to log in users have to type the domain\username and password. Why would this be occuring and what can I do to rectify this?

    - Exchange Routing Hi... Scenario: Exchange 2003 (SBS 2003 Premium) is set up at our head office. Certain employees who have AD accounts need local mail, but their primary mail addresses are external ones (at the client offices). These 2 networks are not joined in any way. The problem is to try and use their local user accounts (in address book) to send to the external addresses by default, but everything's coming through to the local mailboxes. We're new to Exchange, and any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance. Tag: Front-end Exchange Tag: 126948

    - ADC ?'s I'm working migrating Exchange 5.5 to Exchange 2003. Our current setup is Exchange 5.5 SP4, one server (Win2k cluster) all users are already in a Windows 2000 SP AD domain (single forest and domain). I have gotten to the point of installing an Active Directory Connector that seems to work, but this is the result I get when I run ADCconfigcheck: #*** ADCConfigCheck: finished verifying 0 objects: 01/21/2005 08:56:21 ***# #*** ADCConfigCheck began: 01/21/2005 09:01:27 Server name: trsmail ***# There is no Microsoft Exchange organization object in Active Directory. No Exchange 5.5 configuration objects could have been replicated to Active Directory. The ADCConfigCheck will be skipped. #*** ADCConfigCheck: finished verifying 0 objects: 01/21/2005 09:01:27 ***# As I said replication seems to be working , if I make an update on either end the change is replicated to the other environment successfully. I assume this isn't normal, should there have been an organization object created representing the Exchange 5.5 organization? If so where should it be in the Configuration container? TIA for any advice. Tag: Front-end Exchange Tag: 126941

    - Problem sending mail from 5.5 to 2003 Hi we have E2K3 and 5.5 in two different domains. We have configured the ADC and have migrated 1 mailbox from the 5.5 to the E2K3 box, this worked fine. We noticed that the mailbox was still listed in the 5.5 admin program, so we deleted it from there and then opened outlook 2003, thinking that it would be redirected to the mailbox on the new E2K3 server. This was not the case as Outlook was still looking to the 5.5 box. We then manually setup Outlook to the new E2K3 box and opened the mailbox OK. Now we cannot send mail to the 5.5 mailboxes from the E2K3 mailbox and the same from 5.5 to E2K3 can anyone explain what has happened why, once migrated, the mailbox still appeared in the 5.5 organisation why outlook didn't reconfigure itself and why we can send mail to 5.5 and 5.5 to E2k3 any help would be greatly appreciated many thanks Marcus Tag: Front-end Exchange Tag: 126934

    - partitions or folder structure? I am setting up Exchange2003 on RAID5 (yes, I know that is not what is recommended but that's the way it has to be!). So I have around 200GB of unpartitioned space, should I simply create a single huge D: drive and use folder structure or many partitions to separate the Exchange components, logs etc. IMHO with RAID5, administration\performance wont be any easier\better with partitions.

    - Hardware Recommendations for Exchange Server We are looking to deploy an Exchange Server to support about 150 users. Almost all of the users will be connecting remotely through VPNs using Outlook 2003 Cached Mode. Mailbox limits will be 100MB per user. We have been looking at different servers, it must be rackmount. Do you think we could do a 1U server, Dual Processor, 2GB RAM, dual Gigabit Ethernet, 4 x 80GB SATA in a RAID 10 config. Will this work or do we need to do something else? Thank you SOOOOO much! -Douglas Tag: Front-end Exchange Tag: 126922

    - Exchange, Outlook and Firewall Exchange 2003, outlook 98. Local clients connect with no issue, I have had internet clients connecting via exchange connector thru the firewall at thie location before with no issue, until code red came out... and due to an unqualifed admin and/or a patch issued by microsoft, this has stopped working. Ports open on the firewall: 25,80,110,135,143,593 and opened range 1024 to 1800 based on something I read. The exchange client "sometimes" connects to check the username with 10 second pause, othertime it reports connection or network error. I have statically set the tcpip ports for exchange as well based on some articles posted by microsoft, saw no improvement and removed them. I am 5 hours into this...what have missed to get this to work? Craig Musgrove MCSE, MCP+I, MCP Tag: Front-end Exchange Tag: 126921

    - Two Exchange Servers in a single domain. Hello, I'm attempting to preform a migration to exchange 2003 via the "swing" method, as describe in KB 821896. I've got the second exchange up and running, and it's seen in the Exchange System manager on both Exchange servers. I moved a test account (jamtest2) from the original server (ms1) to the "swing" server (ms2). The jamtest2 user, can recieve mail from ms1, and can send mail to both ms1 and through a mail relay. However incoming e-mail destined for jamtest2@ad-domain.org does not make it to the users mail box. Instead, the sender gets a this message: Your message did not reach some or all of the intended recipients. Subject: TEST 16 Sent: 1/25/2005 5:32 PM The following recipient(s) could not be reached: James Testor2 on 1/25/2005 8:06 PM A configuration error in the e-mail system caused the message to bounce between two servers or to be forwarded between two recipients.

    - Exchange 2003 help PLEASE Sorry if this is a repeated question. Could someone help me located detailed information about installing exchange 2003 in an existing domain with exchange 2000. We recently purchased a new server and I want to setup exchange 2003 on this server. Once everything is in place I would like to remove the existing Exchange 2000.

Will there be an interruption of service with Exchange 2000 while Iâ??m setting up Exchange 2003 in the same domain. Are there any conflicts between Windows 2003 member server and Windows 2000 DC (I was thinking making the new server a member server would be the best way to introduce it to the existing domain).

    - Second Exchange Server and OWA Hi, This is my first post, so please excuse me if i did anything wrong. I am sort of new to Exchange 2003 administration and I need some help with this. I am a network administrtor for a small health care firm and I am setting up a second exchange server for the first time. Our current setup is one excahnge 2003 server running on WIndows server 2003. We have recetnly moved our adminstrtion staff to a satalie office connected to the main office with a frac. T1 with just over 1 meg for the data side. I have a DC out at that site and that is it. I am getting a faster e-mail server for the main office and I want to move the old one out to the admin site to allow for faster access to the e-mail. We are also deploying a new website which will be hosted on a web server in the DMZ zone of my firewall. I also to release OWA to the agency, but I only want them to have to go to one server to access thier e-mail through OWA and everything that I have read so far is that if I deply a front-end and back-end server, It will look like I might losse the speed increase for that I am trying to get. Also, should if I do go to a Front-end and back-end toplogy can I put the front end out on the web server that is going in to my DMZ for the new website? Tag: Front-end Exchange Tag: 126897

    - RCP over HTTP Problem Hello I've setup rpc over http and it seems to work, however outlook seems to hang for a good 3-4 minutes before it logs into the mailboxes. The exchange 2003 server is named server1.domain.com however in dns I use mail.domain.com When I configure outlook to use mail.domain.com it freezes and changes that to server1.domain.com. I've set the exchange proxy settings to use https://mail.domain.com however when I open outlook it takes ages to make the https connection, it hangs trying to connect to server1.domain.com. Interestingly enough, when I connect using the same configuration using a different computer on a different network it actually does work even though both computers are configured identcally.

    - Public Folders Not Replicating I have 1 E2K server in our company. I added a new Ex 2003 (Sp1) server. I am in the process of retiring the old E2K server and just having the new Ex 2003 server. I am able to move mailboxes, but I can not get the public folders to replicate. It shows up on the replication tab of my public folders, but it never shows up on my new Ex 2003 server. When I click on the Details button on a public folder on the old E2K server, it says "local modified" on the new server. We don't use many public folders anyway. Does any one know how I can get around this, or can I just recreate the public folders on my new Ex 2003 server, and point clients to the new server for public folders? I also am having trouble with the Offline Address Book & Free/Busy times. I realize this is part of the public folders. Can I recreate these "system" folders on the new server, if I can;t get them to replicate? Thanks for any help. Tag: Front-end Exchange Tag: 126888

"Extension 'MS' could not be loaded" (Abort, Retry, Ignore) I searched Technet and the only article re: MSFB was 183205 "XADM: Cannot View Connector Properties If Permission Not Present". This was not the case. I said Ignore. A KB on the second error indicated permissions issue but also possible .dll version incorrect. I said Ignore.

    - RPC over HTTP general question Do I have to have a perimeter network to use RPC over HTTP. I currently have Exchange 2003 SP1 running on a Windows Server 2003. This server is also a DC with the global catalog. I also have 2 other Windows 2003 servers on the network. All of this is behind a Cisco PIX 515E firewall. Can RPC over HTTP be accomplished without having to setup a perimeter network or the use of an ISA server? Thanks in advance for any replies to this post. Tag: Front-end Exchange Tag: 126856

    - Joined first E2003 Server to E5.5 Org and E2003 System Attendant falls over.... Hi (Big long post, but I'd rather put too much info in than too little) We've just in the process of migrating a customers site from NT4/E55 to W2003/E2003. Here's what our customer had. NT4 PDC with E5.5 (Call it NT-MX) 4 x NT4 BDC's Here's what we've done: Installed a new NT4 server as a BDC and promoted to PDC. (Call it 2K3) Installed W2003 over the top and did all the dcpromo magic. So far, so good. Everyone could still log in and AD and the NT SAMs seemed to be synchronising between the 2003 DC and the NT BDC's. Next I joined another W2003 server to the Domain and ran dcpromo on it. (Call this one 2K3-MX, as it will be the Exchange Server). Still good, checked replication and all seemed fine. Ran Forestprep and all seemed ok. Ran DomainPrep, that said it installed ok. Ran the Orgprepcheck and that (eventually) said everything was good Running DCDIAG on each 2003 DC showed some errors, but these disappeared after time (presumeably replication related). Ran the Active Directory Connector, which installed fine. Ran through all the wizzy bits on it (No problems with resource mailboxes - took there of that before all this started by going through the 5.5 server). Setup the connections between 2K3-MX and NT-MX. Waited a while and looked through the AD User manager and lo and behold, I could see Exchange server tabs populated with information from the 5.5 DS. Installed Exchange 2003 and joined the existing organisation. Here's where it goes pear shaped. After installation, Windows reported that the application MAD.EXE crashed twice. I rebooted the server and checked the services. The System Attendant service was set to Automatic, but not running. The Information Store and MTA were up and running though. Manually started the System Attendant, which runs for about 10 seconds before falling over again. Event Log says the Service Control Manager reports that the System Attendant service terminated unexpectedly with event id 7034. Also logged was an application error in MAD.EXE with the faulting module being NTDLL.DLL Running sc query on the system attendant service comes back with FAILED 1060 - not an installed service. Installed E2003 SP1 in the hope it might fix things but to no avail Any advice would be much appreciated as I'm finding almost no references to this particular combination of errors... I'm wondering whether I should just delete the ADC connections, then try to uninstall E2003 and re-run forest and domain preps, then re-install it. If I do, will it do anything freaky to the 5.5 server or it's DS? Thanks in advance Phil Ermiya Tag: Front-end Exchange Tag: 126851

    - Exchange 2003 Local Mail Hopefully someone can help me. I am trying to setup an Exchange server 2003. I have another company host my mail witha pop3 connection. I was wondering if there was a way to allow them to host the mail and pull the mail down locally to the exchange server for people to access. This way if my server goes down, the main server will still be getting mail and we can access it through a POP3 connection. Tag: Front-end Exchange Tag: 126846

    - OWA (2003), ISA (2004) and SSL certificate from Verisign??? Setup: 2 Exchange 2003 Servers (Win 2003) 1 OWA Server (Win 2003) All 3 of the above are on the internal network behind the firewall 1 ISA 2004 Server (Win 2003) in the DMZ This is my first time setting up OWA. It is also my first time setting up ISA. So my (probably stupid) question is: when I purchase an SSL Certificate from Verisign, do I purchase it for the ISA server or the OWA server? Thanks Tag: Front-end Exchange Tag: 126830

    - OWA- New Exchange & OWA not Working Hi We have a new W2k3 install with 2003 Exchange on top. This is a single server setup with a single firewall to the Web. The SMTP/POP3 portions through Outlook clients works fine but when we try to access OWA through Explorer using http:/servername/exchange we get the 'service unavailable' message in the browser. This is done using an internal LAN machine (the DC) Thanks in Advance! -- Pete C. Tag: Front-end Exchange Tag: 126827

Hi all,

We are working on a new network and consider to place a front-end
Exchange2003 server.
There are several security possibilities
firewall - front-end - firewall - backend
firewall- front-end/isa-server - backend

Has anyone have another solution,
Has anyone experience with such a configuration and doe s this need more
maintenance. Thank you for your opinion.

First of all, a good reading:
"Exchange Server 2003 and Exchange 2000 Server Front-End and Back-End
Topology"
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=6F7937E4-AB7C-42D1-BB8D-04B8E64F7EAC&displaylang=en

I would recommend:

Firewall - ISA - Firewall - Front-end/Back-end
or
Firewall - ISA/Front-end/Back-end
