    - RPC over HTTP on SELF SSL - solved! It seems like there are a ton of poeple online who are having trouble with RPC over HTTPS. I was one of them, but I got a solution now and I wanted to share it with everyone. I had followed all the RPC instructions on microsoft's web site. And still my Outlook client would hang when I was outside of my LAN. Why?? Well, it turns out that if you have a SSL certificate you created using SELFSSL, then you may have an issue! First thing you need to do is to make sure that you created the right kind of certificate. Namely, make sure that you set a large enough window for the expiration date and then make sure that \N option says something like "*.mydomain.com" so that you cover all subdomains for that certificate (as most of you probably want to do). Now try going to the RPC web page by pointing Internet Explorer to https://FQDN/rpc ... do you see a pop up screen giving you a warning about the certificate? If so, then click on "view certificate" and then click on "install certificate". Now you have installed that SSL certificate and you should not see this pop up screen agian. Try shutting down Internet Explorer, restarting it, and then going to that web page again. Now you should not see that pop up warning screen about the SSL certificate. Hopefully this should fix your problem. It did for me! Tag: migrate from native mode Tag: 128752

    - Exchange backend/basic networking concet help Hi group~ I am looking for some help on some basic concepts and was hoping someone or a few of you would join in to help. I want to set up a dmz using a front and back end exchange server, web server and put a ftp server in the dmz as well. My questions at this point are more about the networking side of things like routing the subnets etc. I was thinking that I would use this setup (and this is the hardware I have available): 2 firewalls- router ip->firewall 1 outside (public) ip. Both public addresses on the same subnet. firewall 1 inside (private) ip 10.0.0.x 255.255.255.0 with a gateway of the router ip. exchange and ftp servers with 10.0.0.x addresses with a gateway of the firewall 1 private address firewall 1 inside ip and these servers on the same switch with firewall 2 outside interface on the same switch as well. firewall 2 outside ip 10.0.0.x (same subnet as firewall 1 inside much with a gateway of the firewall 1 inside address. firewall 2 inside address 10.0.1.x 255.255.255.0 and all other machines on that ip scheme. all machines inside have a gateway of the inside firewall 2 address. so first off, is this correct so far? secondly, dns... just set my dns address for the dmz machine to the addresses they have and they should do just fine right? thanks in advance!

    - Outgoing mail via SMTP account at ISP Hi there I am in the process of setting up an exchange 2000 server. Internal mail is working as is POP3 download but outgoing smtp mail is giving me problems. I would like to make use of the smtp accounts that I have already gat at my ISP I hope to find a solution where user "a" send outbound mails via a@mydom.com and user "b" should send outbound mails via b@mydom.com. I have set up smtp connection to pass though a@mydom.com and for user "a", and it is working flawless. However when logged in as user "b" and trying to send outbound mail I get the following reply from my ISP: 553 <b@mydom.com>: Sender address rejected: not owned by user a@mydom.com> I would like your comments as to whether I am on a wrong track, trying to "SMTP connect" to ISP SMTP server and if I am not I would appreciate any help I can get, because right now "I am Stuck".

    - The name could not be resolved. The action could not be completed I'm having a problem getting my Outlook 2003 clients to see our Exchange 2003 standard server. When I create the profile I get the following error when I "Check Name": "The name could not be resolved. The action could not be completed." MachineA (Windows 2003 Server) is the exchange server and also hosts external DNS and runs VMWare. VMWare runs MachineB (Windows 2003 Server) which is the DC & GC and hosts DHCP & DNS. MachineA points to MachineB for DNS and all desktop machines (Windows XP Professional) point to MachineB for DNS. We are moving from a linux solution (Postfix & CourierIMAP) to Exchange but can't get past this hurdle. I've searched google as well as these newsgroups and have tried numerous suggestions but none seem to work for me. Any suggestions are GREATLY appreciated!! Tag: migrate from native mode Tag: 128739

    - unable to move public folders--5.5 to 2003 I have setup a new 2003 server and added it to my current 5.5 organization. I can successfully move mailboxes without any trouble. When I try to move public folders from 5.5 to 2003 I end up with an empty public folder. This is diffucult to test as pfmigrate does not let you choose the PF to move. I can the info in public folder back by removing the new replication entry for the PF through ESM.... Can anyone provide me with a step by step way to move a public folder from 5.5 to 2003? I would like to be able to pick the folder to move so if doing this through the ESM gui is the only way to do this then that is fine.... Also do I need to turn on Send Hierarchy in the ESM? In the migration demo from MS it said to do this but I was not sure as I have not come across it any where else. Thanks. Tag: migrate from native mode Tag: 128712

    - Sequence of Frontend- backend E2k3 server We have one windows 2003 domain/forest and twelve Exchange 2000 servers. We are upgrading three sites to Exchange 2003 using Swing/Move mailbox method. We also have two SSL front end server in NLB running Exchange 2000. My questions are: 1) I understand that we need to first upgrade front end server. I plan to take one front end server out and install Exchange 2003/Windows 2003. I will be designating this server as the first Exchange 2003 server and then making it front end server. When I use the EXDEPLOY, do I have to make it as first Exchange 2003 server. I did run into issues, when i installed mailbox server as first server in test lab and then installed front end server as second server. OWA 2003 only shows me the template and no messages. 2) After this, I will reinstall the second OWA server as Exchange 2003. I will designate this as second exchange 2003 server using Exchange deployment tools. Then change the role to front end. I will then NLB both the front server. 3) After the front end is done, then I plan to install a new backend mailbox exchange 2003 server in one site and start moving mailboxes to Exchange 2003. Using Exchange deployment tool, I will make it another exchange 2003 server. Any comments or suggestions will be highly appreciated. Thanks Tag: migrate from native mode Tag: 128704

    - Best Configuration for multiple sites over intermittent WAN ? Greetings list members, Here is the situation I am looking at. Id like to know what people think is the best method for providing good email and domain services between these 2 sites that are connected by and expensive (and intermitttent) WAN link (with VPN). Site1: Windows Server 2003/Exchange Server 2003 All email is delivered to this site (MX Record points to this address for the domain) Site2: Windows Server 2003/Exchange Server 2003 Provides local site users with collaboration functionality GFI MailEssentials with POP2Exchange periodically connects to Site1 to download mail At the moment Site1 and Site2 are connected by a reasonably reliable WAN connection. So, we have a single exchange organization with these 2 sites defined. Mail seems to flow between mailboxes located on each of the 2 exchange servers. However, this WAN connection is about to get very expensive, so we would like to have the GFI pop2exchange service periodically connect to download mail from Site1 to Site2. Also, GFI Mail Essentials pop2exchange service deletes the email once it has retrieved it. Is anyone aware of a method that can be used to retain the emails (prevent them from being deleted) on site1 even though the pop client has retrieved them to site2?

    - Messages stay in outbox on 1 client for too long - using WinXP Pro SP2 One of our clients is having delays in receiving and sending mail. When the person sends a mail, the message seem to stay in the outbox for a long while, however if they click on the 'outbox' the message goes and moves to the sent items folder. It only appears to be one client and they are not trying to send attachments etc. Also received messages seem to be delayed also... and don't flag up in the inbox..however I got him to click the inbox and the mail appeared. I have tried removing and re-creating the mail profile on his PC (Windows XP Pro SP2) but the problem remains. Can anyone recommend a solution? He is well within the the 'limits' for his mailbox. No other clients are exhibiting this behaviour. Our setup: Exchange 2000 mailboxes and Outlook 2000 clients. Oh I have just found a link that suggest SP2 could be causing the problem: http://itinfo.mit.edu/article.php?id=7312 Can anyone comment on this?

    - exchange domain extension change...help! Hi All, I have an exchange 5.5 setup on a computer called exchangeny. When it was created about 6 years ago, it was given a domain extension of xxx.com, which I know to be a no-no for an internal domain. I am in the process of upgrading our NT servers to 2003, and will be upgrading exchange to 2003 as well. Accordingly, I have brought online a 2003 server with AD and DNS. During the install process of the DNS, I changed the domain extension to xxx.local. So far, so good. I repointed all the clients (via DHCP) to the new 2003 DNS, and they are all happy campers.....EXCEPT... I have a 2003 terminal server which has outlook 2003 on it with a bunch of users created. These users cannot get to the exchange server via outlook - no available or offline. After looking at the problem, I found that the exchange server in the profile for each user is set to exchangeny.xxx.com - not just plain ole exchangeny. Short of logging in to each existing profile, is there a way to change this behaviour??? Thanks to anyone who can help!!!!!

    - Exchange 5.5 to 2000 running on 2000 AD Here is the current situation at my company. When I came here, they were running a NT4 domain with two exchange 5.5 servers, one of which was the PDC. Since then, I have upgrade the domain to 2000 AD running in mixed mode. The former PDC is now a BDC being replicated from the a 2000 DC. So our current configuration includes a 2000 AD domain with all 2000 or better servers except for the two exchange 5.5 servers which still run on NT4. What I want to do is run the new exchange server off a new 2000 server box and get rid of the old NT boxes. I've read through alot of how to's and books about upgrading exchange and wondered what the best way to do it is in my case. The company is behind times in technology and they want to upgrade exchange 5.5 to 2000 enterprise exchange. It is a small network with around 75 or so users. I have already done the forest and domain prep sucessfully for AD and ran ADC to export the recipients from 5.5. I did get a few errors and warnings about not being able to recreate some objects. Is this because i'm running in a mixed mode? I read you need 2000 exchange already installed before you can export public folders so I have not done that yet.

When I setup the remote domains on the SMTP VS server i am selecting route forward mail to smart host using the exchagne servers ip address in brackets i.e [192.168.1.1] my question is if the 5.5 server and the 2003 server both acecpt mail for domainb.com and domaina.com then what is the proper way to configre the SMTP VS server so that if a mail comes in for user@domainA.com and that users mailbox is on the 5.5 server but the smtp VS forwared the email to the 2003 server, then is there a way for the 2003 server to know that it needs to route this email to the 5.5 server where the users mailbox is? What i would like to do is be able to forward all mail from the SMTP VS to one internal exchange server, and the exchagne would then route the mail on to the other server if it doesnt have the mailbox for the user who is suppsoed to get the email. Thanks very much Tag: migrate from native mode Tag: 128677

    - Workgroup to Domain in SBS2003/Exchange I have 20 users here on my network. We've all been on a workgroup. We've all been using Outlook 2003 too. Some people have tons of junk on their computers (desktops, my documents, created folders, etc...). I'm wondering about 2 things. 1. Is there a quick way or tool that will/can migrate a user and all their stuff from having been in a workgroup to the new domain account (that's created under documents and settings) - and.. 2. Those *.pst files I've found from users in the workgroup using Outlook 2003 - but are now moving to using Outlook 2003 via exchange server in a domain - how do I import/move their email? Thx Tag: migrate from native mode Tag: 128676

    - "Unsupported character" in site name. Can I get a solid answer? I am trying to join a E2K3 Server to a E5.5 site. The Site name contains a Comma (,) and a preiod (.). I have changed the "Display name" of the site, but I cannot change the Directory Name. During the pre-installation steps on E2K3, OrgCheck is still showing the "unsupported character" result. Before i waste more time on this, is this going to cause a problem? Is it supported? Is it going to work? Do I need to create a new site? Tag: migrate from native mode Tag: 128668

    - Exchange 5.5 and Exchange 2003 Hello We are currently running Exchange server 5.5 on Windows 2000 server. Due to political reasons, we cannot upgrade to Exchange 2003/and Windows 2003 server. My question is there anyway we can use 5.5 as a kind of forwarder or relay to point to an exchange 2003 server so that users can experience the features of 2003 and so we don't have to endure the issues of a mixed mode environment while at the same time abiding to these "political reasons"???? Don't know if this makes sense, but hopefully someone could help. Thanks. Tag: migrate from native mode Tag: 128666

    - Importing from .pst file and DLs I installed Exchange Server 2003 in December. We did not upgrade this was a fresh install. I imported users mail, contacts etc from their .pst files and everything seemed to go fine. Today I noticed that some users .pst file is still updating when I look at the modified date of the file. I would think that once imported, the pst file is no longer needed or used. It appears there is still a transparent link to some of the pst files for some folders within Outlook. One user in particular had a subfolder under his Inbox that was still putting things to the pst. Additionally, many users Distribution lists do not work if the pst file is deleted or renamed. I want to break all ties with the pst. When I did the import I selected the root folder of the pst and checked the box to Include all Subfolders. I don't undersand why the pst file is still being accessed. Any insight would be greatly appreciated. Tag: migrate from native mode Tag: 128665

    - emails not going! Hi, We have SBS2003 set up in the office mainly used for sharing calendars in Outlook 2003 between users. That part of the system seems to be working fine. Our email system is not via Exchange, we use our pop3 accounts on our domain name/website hosting account. So each user has their POP3 account (for emails) and a microsoft exchange server account (for sharing calendars and folders on the server within Outlook. Over the last few days some of our emails are not being sent. They are staying in the outbox and not going anywhere. Can someone tell me why that might be please? The emails are being 'sent' via the correct account (POP3) but sometimes we get a 'can not be deleivered' message back and this comes from the server! Please, why is this happening? The server has not been set up to send emails yet, mainly due to the fact that I can't seem to get it to work with our setup. Single Network adapter connected to a Draytek Vigor modem/router (ADSL) with a static IP. When I try to set it up I get a message back telling me that the DHCP server is not enabled. I am thinking that it shouldn't be as the router does that job? Anyway, any thoughts on the first problem would be most appreciated. Lenny Tag: migrate from native mode Tag: 128652

    - Help with Exchange 2003 on WinSvr2003 We were working fine on our email using WinSvr2003's built-in SMTP & POP3 servers. But we wanted a webmail interface for traveling users. We went through all the steps for installing Exchange 2003 which included disabling/removing the SMTP & POP3 services..and creating a domain, which we didn't have before. I believe we have the DNS Server set up properly as NSLOOKUP returns "localhost" as the instructions say. But the Exchange Server doesn't work. It can send email to any AD user setup on the local server, but any emails sent out to the internet just sit in the queue with an error "remote server not responding". Also, the POP3 service won't start, no error other than a timeout error when trying to start it. Even though it shows the SMTP server is running, I get an "unable to establish a connection to x.x.x.x port 25" when trying to telnet to it. It seems that the only thing working now is the web interface. BTW: our email system isn't down. We are going to replace that server with this one if we ever get exchange working correctly. Any suggestions/guidance would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. Tag: migrate from native mode Tag: 128650

    - Unable to set server rules following server migration - please hel Hi, I have just migrated our company from one exchange 5.5 server to another using exmerge. All appears to have gone well apart from server rules. Users rules are erroring and when we try to create new rules we get the following error messages: Outlook 98 - There is not enough space on the Microsoft Exchange Server to store all of your rules. The rules that failed to upload have been deactivated. Outlook 2003 - One or more rules could not be uploaded to Exchange Server and have been deactivated. This could be because some of the parameters are not supported or there is insufficient disk space to store all of your rules. I am unable to solve this problem. Please can anyone offer some advice. Many Thanks, Andy Tag: migrate from native mode Tag: 128645

    - SBS 2003: Problems importing Public Folders from a .pst file On my SBS 4.5 machine I have two public folders - "Computer Equipment Register" which contains Contact items (one record per item of computer equipment) and "Computer Equipment Log" which contains Journal items. When I carry out some work on a piece of computer equipment, I create a Computer Equipment Log entry; one of the fields on the form is Contacts, which allows me to navigate to the Computer Equipment Register and link the related equipment. Whan I've done this, the related equipment becomes a hyperlink, that when clicked opens the relevent Computer Equipment Register record. Similarly, If I open the Computer Equipment Register record and go to the Activities tab, I can see all of the Computer Equipment Log entries that the equipment is linked to. This works great. I am now in the progress of migrating to SBS 2003. In order to migrate my public folders, I have logged on to the 4.5 machine as a normal user and exported the public folders (as a .pst file). I then logged onto the 2003 machine as a normal user and tried importing the public folders. The import then seemed to work fine. The problem is that whilst I can navigate to the Computer Equipment Log records from the Activities tab of a Computer Equipment Register record, if I open an existing Computer Equipment Log record and click the link (Contact) to the Computer Equipment (Register record) it returns the following error: The name or distribution list has been deleted and is no longer a valid address book entry. You have most likely attempted to view the calendar for a user who has one or more of the following issues: â?¢ Is not part of your domain. â?¢ Is not listed in the LDAP. â?¢ Is not a member of your Exchange Server. â?¢ Has not granted you the necessary permissions to view their calendar. To avoid this error message, use the Open Calendar command only if the attendee is using Exchange Server. If the user uses Exchange Server and you still encounter an error message, ask the attendee for the appropriate permissions to view their calendar. If they are not part of your network, it is very likely you cannot gain access to their calendar. BTW, I've got the following permissiond for both folders: Client Permissions: Publishing Author Directory Rights: Full Control I've got a lot of really good and important stuff in these public folders and so it is imperative that I get them to work (BTW, the Computer Equipment Log is big - 291Mb, so it wouldn't be feasible to correct it all by hand). Any help would be very much appreciated. Thanks, Gary Tag: migrate from native mode Tag: 128644

    - Multiple SMTP Domains and OWA Hello, In my current Exchange 2000 environment I have a front end / backend configuration hosting 3 mail domains. corp1.com, corp2.com and corp3.com. Through the course of migration to 2003 I have upgraded the front end to 2003 and put a pilot 2003 server in place. Now I am beginning to build the replacement 2003 production server and I am having difficulty getting OWA to work. On the current 2000 server I just configured extra virtual directories called corp2.com and corp3.com. When corp2.com and corp3.com clients connect to OWA they go to http://corp1.com/corp2.com/username I have replicated this configuration on the new 2003 server however I am not able to get this configuration working. Whenever they tried to connect the get a 404 error. The information on the web and TechNet is sparse. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks Derek Tag: migrate from native mode Tag: 128638

    - Rename my domain or use recipient policies? I'm about to set up an exchange 2003 server on a network that already has a windows 2000 domain running. The name of the win2k domain is different from the name of the company internet domain. this is a small network, 1 domain controller and about 20 workstations. I will be installing exchange 2003 on a new win2003 server. Is it easier to rename the win2k domain to match the internet domain before installing exchange, or is it better to leave the windows domain alone and use recipient policies? Note that I'm not familiar with recipient policies but I do know they're well documented. Thanks, --Dan Tag: migrate from native mode Tag: 128636

    - Exchange and POP side by side? We are small company and in the process of implementing SBS2003. Previously we all had direct e-mail access through a peer to peer network and a DSL connection. Inter company communication was all through POP. Being able to share calenders and contacts is attractive for us. Before I started with the Exchange implementation my expectation was that I would have an Exchange mailbox for internal mail and our existing Outlook .PST folder. And that each application would work side by side, i.e. the old .PST would check e-mail directly through the Internet. What I've seen so far is that OL can deliver mail only to one inbox. If Exchange is installed it insists on delivering to the exchange box. In fact it insist through the POP connector that Exchange retrieves e-mail directly from the POP accounts. Is this correct or is there a workaround? We are frequent travellers and want to be able to connect to the Internet to retrieve e-mail without connecting to SBS. Is that possible? Any suggestions are welcome. Tag: migrate from native mode Tag: 128632

i m going to migrate exchange 2000 to 2003 on different hardware. I have a
question that
migration document says when u install 2003 on new hardware choose "Deploy
first exchange 2003 Server" and then "Upgrade from Exchange 2000 Native Mode".
However currently exchange 2000 running on mixed mode. Do we need to change

I will be thankfull

If you have no Exchange 5.5 servers and have no plans to transition
any in then you can switch to Exchange Native.
You can migrate at any point you choose.
