    - Other or undefined network or routing status I have installed SBS 2003, ISA, and Exchange 2003 using all of the default settings. I'm been trying to send e- mails to different people. I have searched and searched and searched for a solution to my problem. I continue to receive undelivered delivery in my inbox each time I send e-mail. The error message I receive says. " The message cannot be delivered due to a configuration error on the server. Please contact your Administrator. < #5.3.0 smtp;553 5.3.0 DNSBL:To request removal of, 68.46.244.47, please send an E-mail to removeme@sbc.sbcglobal.net>" Can anyone assist me with this issue?

    - Moving Mailboxes: Client configuration 1. When I installed a fresh W2K3 with E2K3 on E5.5 site I should be able to move the Mailboxes from E5.5 to E2K3 server, right? 2. On which machine I do the 'moving', I mean on the E5.5 or E2K3 (new box)? 3. Once I move the Mailboxes to E2K3, do I need to change the server name on all the clients? For example my E5.5 server name is "MAIL-A" and the E2K3 server name is "MAIL- B". If all my 200 clients' Outlook configured as the server name MAIL-A. 4. Approximately how long will it take to move about 200 mail boxes? Thank you in advance. TSK Tag: OWA Question Tag: 114822

    - Still having RUS issues somewhere I was having some RUS issues and due to some other problems we had, we ended up formatting the drive Exchange 2003 was running on...then removed Active Directory and DNS/WINS from our DC. Upon reinstalling, everything seems to work better, when I add a mailbox..the users' email address are actually being created like they should now and I don't get the "Server is not operational error" anymore either. From OWA when you access the GAL, people's addresses show up, however they don't show up under GAL in the System Manager. Any ideas? I really need to get this up and running. Thanks.

    - email generator not working Server 2000 / Exchange 2000 - new install of both. When I create users on the server and check off for an Exchange mailbox to also be created it isn't. In my email generator there are 3 email addresses to be created and all are checked off. Any thoughts on what I could have set incorrectly or the problem? Thanks Norm Tag: OWA Question Tag: 114818

    - Problem removing 5.5 server from site during migration to EX2003 Environment: Windows 2003 domain into which we migrated computers and users from 3 NT domains. No problems. Began Exchange migration from 5.5 (two servers) to Exchange 2003 following Microsoft Implementation Guide and many KB articles. ADC installed and OK, all mailboxes moved to EX2003 machine, all PF's migrated to EX2003 machine and source replicas removed. All system folders replicated to EX 2003 machine. Internet connector installed on EX2003 machine and all connectors on 5.5 machines removed. A problem occurred when removing the secondary 5.5 server from the site (the "first" 5.5 server is still a member of the site), probably because the event service was not removed with the connectors. When attempting to remove the 5.5 server with the Exchange 5.5 Administrator on the EX2003 machine the error "could not load admin agent extension" occurred. This was ignored. The administrator reported a successful removal. We replicated the CA. Current Symptoms Both the 5.5 server and the EX2003 servers try to RPC to the deleted server every ten minutes. This of course fails. The deleted server doe not appear in the server list in the 2003 System Manager nor in the 5.5 administrator. The server does not appear in the AD configuration container using ADSI edit. The Event Config folder of the deleted server appears in the Event Root folder both in the 5.5 Administrator and in the System Manager. There are no other problems or errors reported with AD or EX20003. I have read KB187523 regarding the removal of duplicate EventConfig folders in a site, but this is not quite our scenario. The folder is not "deletable" for the 5.5 administrator, but Delete is an option in the System Manager, but it might fail on trying. Any advice appreciated. doug stone Tag: OWA Question Tag: 114817

    - Using Exchange 2003 in simple multi-domain ISP-type configuration... I fairly new to exchange, but have a fair understanding of POP3 & SMTP. I want to use E2K3 for about 200 users across 12 domains. I am looking for a DOC or some information on the recommended ways to setup simple, single server, muti-domain (for email addresses only) E2K3 configurations The biggest question I have is To setup multiple domains, should I create each domain in AD, or simply add the corresponding email addresses to users that have addresses in more than one domain or is there a better way?

    - E2K3 Installation: W2K3 Services The E2K3 deployment guide reads the following. The 1st part says the list of required components and the 2rd part says install only the needed services. I don't know why do I get confused, but we just install the services that we needed only. Is that right? ******************* Exchange 2003 Setup requires that the following components and services be installed and enabled on the server: . .NET Framework . ASP.NET . Internet Information Services (IIS) . World Wide Web Publishing Service . Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) service . Network News Transfer Protocol (NNTP) service ******************** Important When you install Exchange on a new server, only the required services are enabled. For example, Post Office Protocol version 3 (POP3), Internet Message Access Protocol version 4 (IMAP4), and NNTP services are disabled by default on all of your Exchange 2003 servers. You should enable only services that are essential for performing Exchange 2003 tasks. Tag: OWA Question Tag: 114805

    - /forestprep /domainprep on DC? I am getting ready to install Exchange 2K3 on Exchange 5.5 site on W2K3 member server. Should I run the 'setup /forestprep' and 'setup /domainprep' on the W2K3 DC and then come back to the member server to run exchange setup? Where do you run the deployment tools? Do we run /forestpre /domainprep thru the deployment tools or just run from exchange CD? Please help me. Thank you in advance. TSK Tag: OWA Question Tag: 114800

    - Providing a remote Exchange Solution I am looking for an Exchange Solution. We have a couple of small clients who cannot afford their own Exchange server and maintain it so we would like to offer them this service. I have a few questions before I feel comfortable. Right now this is the status of our Exchange server 2003: --Behind a PIX 501 Firewall --Hosting two domains --OWA access works fine --Using GFI MailEssentials to filter spam Now I have a lot of questions, they all need to be a part of our solution. Sorry for all of them. 1) I want to sync their current accounts/PSTs with the Exchange server so all contacts, emails, etc are on the server and available in the OWA as well as in Outlook. I can only do this when I unplug the firewall, otherwise it does not find the server. I thought I read somewhere that I can hard code ports Exchange uses on the actual server in the registry, but that was referring to the 5.5 version. Is this the same in the 2003 environment? If so, are there a specific amount I should open, or any static ones already defined to be opened as well? If I am way off, how can I allow this traffic through? Currently only the pop3 and smtp ports are open, but creating an Exchange account for the Outlook client cannot find the server. 2) When the PIX is turned off, I can hit the Exchange and login with user/pw/domain. But I have to do this every time. Is there a way to automate this login so each user doesn't have to enter it every time, just the first time on their desktop computers? 3) Calendar sharing. I see that you can only add/edit others calendars if you are actually viewing through the Outlook program (Don't like that, any reason why?) When a user selects a person they would like to share their calendar with, it shows users created in Active Directory for both domains. I would like it so clients from one company, can only see their users, and not all users. Also, clients who won't use the calendar sharing feature (probably not many) I can just let them download emails via pop3 from the Exchange, but those whos Outlook client will be configured for Exchange server leads me to my next point. 4) Bandwidth. Outlook doesn't open instantly, and I can understand that since they are used to the PST locally whereas they are going to get their data from our server through the internet. Does anyone here provide the kind of solution we are going to offer our clients? What kind of slowdown/lag do you experience in an environment of say 50-100 users (could potentially grow to 400 if we can give them what they want). Is it just when it is initially opened or does sending/receiving move extremely slow as well? We plan on having two dedicated T1 lines for this one server. Right now I would imagine it seems slow because we are in a testing environment and not in production yet, but what, if any, kinds of slowdowns can we expect? 5) We would like it so they have their own company name instead of having to use ours for the OWA. So far, I have it setup as http://mail.ourcompany.com/clientA http://mail.ourcompany.com/clientB Any way around this so it is: http://mail.clientA.com/exchange http://mail.clientB.com/exchange If the above cannot be done, is there anything else I can do? Thank you for any help you can provide. Tag: OWA Question Tag: 114793

    - ADC Tools can't be run with customized matching rules Hi In a new Administration Group within an existing organisation, I'm installing EX2k3 in an existing mixed Ex5.5 and Ex2k environment. The environment has existed for over a year and the original ADC's have been in place from the begining. I have updated all the ADC's and attempted to install the First Ex2k3 server and receive the following message in the ExDeploy.log file - Exchange installation (Tools run during setup - Active Directory Connector User Replication Check (ADCUserCheck ADCUserCheck will verify if it has previously been run as recommended. If this tool has not been run prior to setup, Exchange installation will fail Error: ADC Tools were not run in your organization - Active Directory Connector Object Replication Check (ADCObjectCheck ADCObjectCheck will verify if it has previously been run as recommended Error: ADCObjectCheck was not run in your organization Not wishing to run this tool but it seems it must be completed to go further I went to one of the DC's running the ADC and initiated the tools, I then get this message Error: The Data Collection tool found customized object matching rules in the ADC Management properties. ADC Tools cannot be used when customized matching rules exist I'm happy with this message as I never wanted to run the Tools anyway, but I feel I'm in a "chicken and egg" situation I can't install Ex2k3 without running the tools and I can't run the tools because of the required customizations..... I can't find anything about this on Technet and wonder if maybe there's a switch or an entry that can be made bypass this ADC Tools requirement and allow the install?

    - Can't send e-mail to outside domains with Exchange 2003 Can anyone help? I have a new installation of Exchange 2003 on a Win 2003 server. All seems to work fine except sending mail outside of the domain. Receiving is fine and sending to users on the same domain is fine. However, sending outside of the domain causes a bounceback (immediately!) with 'E-mail account does not exist' or something similar. The DNS seems to be just fine. Very puzzled.

    - Exchange 5.5 migration to Exchange 2003 I have Exchange 5.5 SP4 running on a 2000 Server with SP4. It is a member server in a Server 2003 AD running in native 2000 mode(I have a 2000 Server DC). I have upgraded the Domain from NT4. I have been reading the articles about migrating to a new server and want to make sure I understand some things. I have not installed the ADC. Is that a problem? Everything seems to be working fine to this point. Can I do this gradually? Can I move a few mailboxes over to the new server to test? I want to put the new Exchange server behind ISA Server. When would I do the server publishing in ISA-before or after removing the Exchange 5.5 server? Thank you for any help. Tag: OWA Question Tag: 114779

    - Moving mailboxes from 5.5 to 2003 and getting the user permissions I'm having some troubles moving my Exchange 5.5 mailboxes to my 2003 server and getting the mailbox permissions correct. Maybe I'm missing something in the process. Here's what I have. 2003 Exchange server joined to a NT 4 domain site. (One server each - same org). ADC connector with 2 way connection agreement between the 2003 AD and 5.5 Directory. The amilbox information is replicated to AD in the form of the disabled user accounts in the "Recipients" folder. I Use Active Directory Migration Tool to move the user to the Active Directory, then ADClean to merge the Exchange information from the disabled user to the migrated user. Then I use Exchange system manager to move the mailbox from the 5.5 server to the 2003 server. This is OK, with one problem. The resulting user does not seem to have apropriate rights to their own mailboxes! WhenI go to a migrated user and check out Exchange Advanced - Mailbox Rights, the user is not in the list of objects having rights to the mailbox (and they cannot log in with OL). The account from the old domain is there with rigths to the mailbox, but not the new one. And "Self" isn't there either, like it apears it should when I create a "native" 2003 mailbox-enabled user. Am I doing something wrong? Wrong order? missing a step? I've been doing some reading and playing with a number of different ways to do this and different orders of events, but I can't seem to get it to come out the way I want it. Any suggestions would be apreciated! Jim Helfer WTW Architects Pitssburgh PA Tag: OWA Question Tag: 114775

    - Relaying Denied for POP3 Have 3 E2k3 boxes: E1, E2, and E3. E1 is SMTP connector, E3 is front-end, E1 and E2 are mailbox servers. Have ISA 2k box, SMTP published to E1. MX points to E1. When connecting via POP3 externally, can download. But on sending, get 550.5.7.1 "Unable to Relay". I have Authentication on all three SMTP boxes set to Anon, Basic, and Integrated. Have changed these Auth settings, to no avail. When I turn off Anon, mail stops flowing between them (internal mail). Even in Outlook, I set to "log into sending server first", no luck.

    - Pub Folder Calendar & Summer Time problem Hi All, Forgive me if this is a simple question, however shared Calendar folders in Public Folders seem to have a problem with DST changeover. The issue is that all appointments that have been made by a client computer *prior* to the switch to DST later skew forward by an hour when your client computer then moves into DST time. I can't for the life of me figure out the mechanism of this problem as it doesn't occur in private calendars or on email timestamps, and frankly I would have thought all such things would be tracked against UTC time + offset. Server is Win2003, Exchange2003, timezone is GMT + auto adjust for Daylight Savings Time and sync'd with an NTP service. Can anyone shed any light for me? Cheers and thanks in advance Tag: OWA Question Tag: 114765

    - HELP! MTA Stack and IS won't start I have a Windows 2003 Server standard that I installed Exchange 2003 standard onto. It is the first Exchange server in our relatively small domain of about 60 users. First off, before trying to implemement Exchange in the live environment I had it setup on a whitebox test Pc and it was and is working 100% fine. We now have an HP Proliant Server I have installed it on, and for the life of me I cannot get the MTA Stack and Information Store services to start. Here are the messages from my Event log; Process MAD.exe (PID=1792). All global catalog servers in use are not responding: xxxx.xxxx.com There is not enough Performance Monitor memory to display the MTA connections information. Stop attached Performance Monitors and re-start the MTA [BASE MAIN BASE 1] (14) A fatal error occurred reading a value from the directory. No MTA name was found. Contact Microsoft Technical Support. [MTA MAIN BASE 1 12] (16) The MAD monitoring thread was unable to read its configuration from the DS, error '0x800040005'. I should also note that I have run dcdiag and netdiag and both tests pass and have zero errors except for dcdiag which fails systemlog because of the above formentioned events in the logfile.

    - Migration to W2K3 and E2K3 I have an existing NT4 Domain with Exchange 5.5. I have set up a W2K3 domain with Exchange 2003. I have created a trust between the two domains. I want to migrate users over from the old domain to the new domain. Both NT and Exchange accounts. I want to migrate the users over in 3 months. My problem is, that since it is two different mail organizations, is there a way to: 1. Sych up the calenders from both ORGS. I know there is the INTERORG replication tool that replicates free/busy, but I need to open a migrated users calender. It won't allow me to open it because I do not have permission. 2. When I send meeting notices to users in W2K3 domain, they recieve it as an email instead of a meeting request. If someone can help out I would really appreciate it.

    - How To: RPC over HTTP Greetings, I am trying to setup RPC over HTTP/HTTPS in a test environment. So far all the directions I have found have not led me to success. I have several questions. 1. Can it be done with only 1 exchange server, or is a FE/BE configuration required? 2. Can someone tell me where I went wrong with the following configuration? I have a router with a static public IP, it forwards port 25, 80, & 443 to 192.168.0.108. The router does not have a DMZ port. .108 is configured as a front end server .107 is a back end server and thus holds the mailboxes .105 & .106 are my domain controllers/global catalogs & CA's I have tested mail flow and OWA over SSL successfully. I then create a Outlook profile to connect to Exchange while on that subnet. I created a second profile to use RPC over HTTPs setting the Exchange proxy server to exchange.domain.com. Note that exchange.domain.com resolves publicly to my IP. I take the PC home and try to connect using the RPC profile. It doesn't connect. Tag: OWA Question Tag: 114750

    - Outlook Web Access Help I have just setup and installed Microsoft Exchange Server 2003. The installation completed fine and there are no problems with AD. I have setup several users mailboxes, however, I am having problems accessing them using Outlook Web Access. I have checked each user's properties in AD Users and Computers and can confirm that Web access is ENABLED. My Exchange Server is called UC-EXCH. When I go to a web browser and type in: http://UC-EXCH/exchange/username, I am prompted to enter the user's credentials (Username and AD password). After entering the details 3 times, a message appears in my browser stating "Error: Access is Denied." Any idea why this is happening? I thought OWA was enabled by default and that I didn't need to conduct any additional configurations in Exchange. I have also been unable to find any good knowledge base articles on detailed steps on how to configure Exchange 2003 for OWA. Can anyone help? Any suggestions, comments or advice welcome. Thanks!

Then we remove the 5.5 exchange server not using the tutorial how to remove the last exchange 5.5 server in the domain. The Exchange 2000 is running very good and has no problems. No we wanted to migrate the exchange 2000 server to an exchange 2003 server and always get the request to type in the exchange 5.5 server. We tried everything to remove the server we no longer need and totally wanted to be removed. Any suggestions? With regards Torben Jaster Tag: OWA Question Tag: 114740

    - SMTP Out Not sure Hi, I have setup the SMTP to use DNS to resolve recipients names. In the forwarders I used a well known ISPs DNS server IP address and I was getting mail out. Now I get home from setting this up and I am not getting any emails from the exch server like I was before. Should I have not used a well known ISPs DNS server in the forwarder even if they are not our ISP? Thanks, Pete Tag: OWA Question Tag: 114735

    - disclaimer/signature Hello, I know it is possible to add a disclaimer to every mail which is send via the IMC-connector, but is it also possible to add an automatic (not the manual option to add a signature...) user-signature which is user-dependent? Thanks. John Tag: OWA Question Tag: 114734

    - E5.5 to E2K3 upgrade So finally I understood that I can't directly upgrade from E5.5 to E2K3. I have one PDC (nt4), two BDCs and one member server with E5.5. Now I want to add W2K3 with E2K3 new box to the LAN to takeover the E5.5. 1. Should I upgrade the PDC first or add the W2K3 member server to the LAN? 2. Can you confirm that I could installed the E2K3 on the same site as E5.5? Which is the best or right step to start? Thank you in advance. TSK. Tag: OWA Question Tag: 114730

    - OWA 2003 installation best practices Hi! I'm upgrading an Windows 2000 Server / Exchange Server 2000 OWA to a new machine with Windows Server 2003 / Exchange Server 2003 OWA. In the old machine, I had a non default web site in which both the in-house developed asp-intranet and the OWA was installed. As I installed OWA and it ended up in the default web site, I noticed that it gets its own Application Pool in IIS6. What is the best practices here, should I leave OWA in its own application pool and have my intranet in another, or can I add my intranet safely to the OWA web site/application pool?

    - DNS servers not all created Equel ? Hi, I was wondering when I was setting up my SMTP outbound for DNS. I noticed that when I used my ISPs DNS server for lookup to resolve recipients that it couldn't resolve all of my emails going out. I would test out their domain names using NSLookup. But when I changed to a well known DNS server in my forwarders in DNS, I had no problem resolving all domains. Any Ideas on why this might be? Thanks, Pete Tag: OWA Question Tag: 114721

    - Can we move Exchange2K3 to another server? Hi According to KB 822945 Exchange 2K3 can be moved from one server to another with the same name. Can Exchange be moved between servers of different names? Is the procedure the same with the exception of the server rename Mike Tag: OWA Question Tag: 114720

    - Outgoing SMTP Mail Hi, I am currently in the process of a migration from 5.5 to 2003 in our Chicago office. After adding the 2003 server to a existing 5.5 site we began moving various mailboxes. Everything is working well so far except I noticed our SMTP mail from 5.5 users is not going out the SMTP connector on the local 2003 server? We traced it going to another site in Singapore via the MTA site connector and then using the 5.5 IMS on their bridgehead server. All inbound SMTP does come into the 2003 server and then via X.400 transfers to the users on the 5.5 box. It is just outbound SMTP that routes half-way around the world before finding an IMS to send it. I have re-calculated the routing in 5.5 and can see the 2003 SMTP connector in the 5.5 admin console but no luck? Once I move a 5.5 user to the 2003 server it starts to use the local SMTP server properly. Ultimately we could just move the rest of the 5.5 users but we will not be able to fully complete the migration for another month. All the CA's and SRS are running properly. Thanks for your help.

    - NT/5.5 to Win2k/Exch2003 I currently have Exchange 5.5 on a WinNT machine. I have a new server with Win2K that I want to install Exchange 2003 on. What is the best way to do this, how do I move the stuff from 5.5 (mailboxes,etc.) to the new machine? I have very little Exchange experience. Thanks for any help. Gary Tag: OWA Question Tag: 114715

    - SMTP - NSLookup Timing Out on Some Hi All, I have configured our SMTP Virt server to use DNS lookup to resolve recipient names. I add the forwarders under DNS. Now most emails are making it out but some are not. They are timing out when I try to use NSLookup on them. What should I look for to fix this? And can I add more DNS servers to better help find the recipients? Any Ideas? Thanks, Pete Tag: OWA Question Tag: 114714

    - Multiple name space OWA + Form based authentication I have set up my Exchange 2003 server and got OWA working for multiple name space (xxx.com, yyy.com). users with xxx.com addresses would go to https://company/exchange; yyy.com would go to https://company/yyy. Then I turned on form based authentication. xxx.com users OWA works flawlessly. However, after yyy.com users logged off (or session timed out), they cannot use the logon page to logon again as it defaults back to https://company/exchweb/bin/auth/owalogon.asp?reason=1. xxx.com users can logon from that page, but yyy.com users cannot. Does anyone know a solution to this problem? Thanks Tag: OWA Question Tag: 114712

    - "The srs contains no home-mdb (homeMdb" I just installed Exchange 2003 on a (new) Windows 2003 server. Ultimately I wish to move users from Exchange 5.5 on an NT server (and decommission that box). After the Exchange installation, the e2kdsinteg.log file shows the following errors: "The srs contains no home-mdb (homeMdb" "The srs contains no home-mta (homeMta)" "The public mdb contains no home-mta (homeMta)" "The system attendant contains no home-mdb (homeMdb)" "The system attendant contains no home-mta (homeMta)" I am able to create a new mailbox, but am not able to move anyone over from the old server. When I attempt to move someone, the fields for the new server and location of the new mailbox store are grayed out and not available. I can't find any useful info on the errors above. Can anyone shed some light? Tag: OWA Question Tag: 114709

    - LDAP & Schedule + We currently run Exchange 5.5 in a Windows NT domain. We have users who do not have Windows NT accounts and who do not have Exchange 5.5 mailboxes. These users are, however, able to use LDAP on port 389 to access the global address list and other address book views that have been created. We plan to migrate from Exchange 5.5 and Window NT to Windows 2003 Active Directory and Exchange 2003. Q: Will we still be able to provide LDAP access to these same address book views to users who are not part of the Active Directory or Exchange 2003, similar to how we did with Exchange 5.5 in the Windows NT domain? We also have users who use Exchange 5.5 and use Schedule+ for shared calendars. Q: Will these users still be able to use their Schedule+ calendars against their Exchange 2003 mailboxes once they have been migrated? The problem we have is that we don't save mail on the server. All mail is saved locally to a pst on the local desktop, and we could not find a good method in Exchange 5.5 for using shared Outlook calendars that didn't entail keeping our user's mail on the server.

Hi,

We are running Exchange 2003 Standard with Windows 2003
Standard.

I'm getting ready to configure OWA for our outside users
and was wondering if there is a specific port that I need
to open on my Firewall to give access to these users. I
know that SMTP uses port 25 by default but what about OWA?

Thank you in advance!

OWA uses port 80 by default since it's HTTP. However, I'd recommend using
HTTPS (port 443) since this will at least protect your usernames and
passwords being sent across the Internet.
