    - testing exchange 2003 I'm going to bring email in house and I was considering using Exchange 2003. There's only about 20 or so pc's on this network and there is no domain. Do I have to use a domain in order to use Exchange 2003? I hesitate on going ahead and installing Active Directory because it wants a fully qualified domain name. I'm not sure what to use because I want to test out exchange with my own personal registered domain and setup everything first so i can test it than use my companies registered domain.

    - exchange 2003 install I'm installing exchange 2003 on a windows 2000 server which is also a domain controller. I'm doing the Typical install option. Halfway through the installation, it prompts me for a file named microsoft.exchange.oma.exchangedataprovider. I cannot locate this file on the CD. I searched the web and found that the file is available for download, but it costs $10 to download. Must I pay to obtain this file or can I get it elsewhere for free? -- alexo Tag: 2000 to 2003 migration Tag: 122095

    - Global Catalog problem in Exchange Setup I'm having a problem installing Exchange, and I'm hoping someone can help me. When I try to install Exchange, I get this message: The component 'Microsoft Exchange Messaging and Collaboration Services' cannot be assigned the action "Install" because: - Setup cannot connect to a global catalog server. There are no global catalog servers that are running on Windows 2000 SP3 in a domain-prepped domain in either the local Windows site or adjacent sites. Upgrade at least one global catalog server in the local site or an adjacent site to Windows 2000 SP3 or later. In addition, ensure that the domain of which the global catalog server is a member has been domain-prepped. If the global catalog server is not in the local domain, run Setup with the /DomainPrep switch in the domain of which the global catalog server is a member. I'm trying to install Exchange on a domain controller within an AD forest. There is one other domain in the forest, and that other domain is the root domain for the forest. All my machines are running Windows 2003 Server. In preparation for this install, I did the following: 1. Ran forestprep on the DC in the root domain. 2. Ran domainprep on the DC in the root domain. 3. Ran domainprep on the DC on which I'm trying to install Exchange. Can anyone explain why Exchange is having a problem with the Global Catalog? Thanks for any help you can offer. -- Chris Tag: 2000 to 2003 migration Tag: 122092

    - Upgrading NT.4 2000 with Exchange 5.5 installed. Hi, I'm upgrading NT4 single server PDC with Exchange 5.5 installed and am wondering if I am able to just upgrade the PDC to windows 2000 active directory? and will it effect exchange 5.5 as I plan to upgrade to Ex2000 after that is complete. Is that the correct procedure and do I need the ADC installed to allow Exchange 5.5 to communicate with Active directory prior to upgrading exchange.

    - Lotus Notes to Exchange 2003 Migration Currently my company's primary server is Lotus Notes running on an AS400 machine. I recently completed the installation of front end/backend Exchange 2003 setup. No issues what so ever. After reading "Exchange Server 2003 Interoperability and Migration Guide", I proceeded with installing and configuring the Lotus Notes Connector on our Exchange 2003 backend server. At the step where you start the Microsoft Exchange Connector for Lotus Notes service, the AD organizational unit designated for existing lotus notes users, started populating with all users from our Lotus Notes server as disabled accounts. In the Lotus Notes Connector properties, under the Import Container, I have it set that "when replicating a mailbox whose primary windows account does not exist in the domain" = "create a disabled windows user account". For all the Lotus Notes accounts, there are equivalent AD accounts. I don't understand why all these disabled accounts were created. Make me think that the connector couldn't figure out how to match AD accounts with the lotus account. Has anybody ever experienced this? How does one go about troubleshooting this? From what I read, it doesn't seem like the connector is to behave this way. Additionally, if I took the disabled account generated from the Lotus Notes connector, disabled the pre-existing AD account and enabled the disabled account generated from the Lotus Notes connector, I can send messages back and forth between Exchange and Lotus Notes without any issues. I have approximately 200 users to convert and this process to get Lotus Notes users to Exchange would not be optimal. Any help or suggestions would be appreciated.

We have not yet reconfigured the Public and User CA's to point to SRS from Exchange 5.5. Is there any reason to do this now? Will there be any noticable effects?

    - Front-End/Back-End and Recipient Update Service I am in the process of upgrading from Exchange 5.5 to 2003. I planned on using four servers, 2 front-end servers and a 2 node active/passive cluster as the back-end. Since you have to have at least one 2003 Exchange server running before you can install the cluster, I used one of the front-end servers as the first Exchange 2003 server. So at this point, I have the cluster setup and one front-end running the ADC connector and co-existing with Exchange 5.5. The problem is that I can not check the box in front of "This is a front-end server." The error message says that it can not be a front-end server because the Recipient Update Service is running on it. So my question is, what are my options? Can the service be moved to the cluster? Do I have to purchase another server or what? Thanks Ed Tag: 2000 to 2003 migration Tag: 122033

    - Migrating from one server to another I have a scenario that I'm looking to get some input on from the Exchange experts out there. I have a client that currently uses Exchange 2003 out of an ASP hosted datacenter. The client is leaving that ASP vendor and is installing the servers in house. My question is, if the ASP vendor has exchange 2003 and my client installs exchange 2003 on a server inhouse, what is the best way to migrate all of the user's information, ie mail, contacts, calendar. I know that there is a "Move Mailbox" tool with Exchange 2003, but that to me looks like it is designed to work with servers that are all in the same AD domain. In this case we don't have that option. TIA, -dan Tag: 2000 to 2003 migration Tag: 122027

    - OWA...change password....work around for SSL....EXCHANGE 2000 Hi OWA in Exchange 2000 has been configured. For the change password option an SSL certificate is required. The problem is that we already have ONE SSL certificate and the company cant afford to but another one at the moment for various reasons. I want to set up a work around such that when the user clicks 'CHANGE PASSWORD' it goes to another link than the default one which should be lets say 'http://www.company.com/changepassword'. This website has SSL implemented hence we could use our 'change password' option. Is that possible? How do i go about it? If not possible, is there a workaround from not buying an SSL certificate?

A warning event occured. EventID 0x800034C4; Event String: The File Replication Service is having trouble enabling replication from dc1 to dc1 for c:blah ising the dns name dc1.fqdn.

"Event String: The File Replciation Service has enabled replication from dc1 to dc2 for c:blah after repeated retries. dc2 passed test frssysvol."

    - SQL Mail Problem Hello, I have a server with SBS 2003 and Exchange 2003 and SQL 2000 and all with current service packs. I am having a problem with SQL Mail. The problem is the mail profile is grayed out in SQLServerAgent. I created a mail profile in exchange called SQLMail. I then opened SQL Enterprise Manager went to Support Service then to SQL Mail opened the drop down box and selected my profile called SQLMail and then clicked "Test" and the message that came back was "Successfully stopped and started a MAPI Session". I then went to SQLServer agent properties and notice that Mail profile is grayed out so I can not at this point use my profile. Since Exchange and SQL is on the SBS server the user I am using is Administrator and I used Administrator in SQL and Exchange. The problem looks to me as if I am not using the same account for exchange and SQL but from what I can see I am using the same account.

I went through the prep steps of Exchange 2003. I ran dcdiag on both DC's and everything passed. I ran netdiag and everything pasted. I get to Forest Prep it was a no go. It said AD was busy or i didn't have the rights. Which I was logged on with the same administrator account as below. So I switched to the Primary DC and run Forest Prep and Domain Prep no problem. I rebooted the server and then went back to the Member Server to install Exchange. Everything went fine until the installation came to Forest prep again then I encountered the following error message: Event Type: Error Event Source: MSExchangeSetup Event Category: Microsoft Exchange Setup Event ID: 1002 Date: 9/27/2004 Time: 6:20:30 PM User: N/A Computer: SVR_WEB Description: Exchange Server component Microsoft Exchange Forest Preparation failed.

    - ExMerge information Hi IÂ´m about to migrate alot of .PST files from an Exchange 5.5 server to an Exchange 2003 server. I will have no contact with the old 5.5 server, the only thing IÂ´m getting is .PST files of all the mailboxes. So I have to import them into the new Exchange server in some way. Can I import hundreds of PST files to a new server with ExMerge? If so, how would that syntax look? How should you name the PST files? Thanks in advance!

    - EX 2003 on IMC.??? shortly we are going to be rolling out Exchange server 2003 and decomisioning our old exchange 5.5. Currently the 5.5 sits on a very busy WIN 2000 Svr, it has been suggested that we make the clean install on the server that is the internet mail connector (which has plenty of room to host the database, and will take the load from our primary box.) Is it a bad idea to run the New Exchange database on the same box as the IMC.. for any particular reason, and is there anything I should be aware of before making the move to 2003..?

    - OWA FE automatic virutal server setup? In the book Exchange Server 2003 Unleashed it says to just check the box 'This is a front end server' and then that's it. Besides going on about setting the host headers and setting up SSL there is no mention of needing to configure virtual servers. Are they automatically created? Microsoft's Exchange Server 2003 Topology guide, chapter 4, says I need to setup Virtual Servers however the document is for both 2000 and 2003 so I'm confused. Thanks! ps. is there a good step by step manual availble for this? Tag: 2000 to 2003 migration Tag: 121991

    - Folder Creation slow in Exchange 2003 Hi, I just got through an Exchange 5.5 to 2003 migration, and am working out the kinks. One thing I noticed, when I create a folder in Outlook (i.e. task list, contacts, calendar, etc.) it takes like 4 minutes to add it. Using Exchange 5.5, it was pretty much immediate. Any ideas? I do still have the 5.5 server in the organization, but it's shutdown. Could this have an impact? Thanks, Troy Tag: 2000 to 2003 migration Tag: 121986

    - Installation of Exchange 5.5 I guess I'll go a different route... I am setting up a new server with Advanced 2000. INSTEAD of me joining the existing domain that my NT server is on, I am going to create a new domain and have the Advanced 2000 Server as my only DC(since I don't need to migrate the old server onto the new one). When I am trying to install Exchange 5.5 Enterprise Edition onto my new server, it still says that it must be part of an NT domain. Since I couldn't get it to install when I joined the exisiting NT domain(because it still showed the same error message), I figured I would just create a whole new domain with a different name, etc. How do I fix this problem? Thanks for all the input folks! Tag: 2000 to 2003 migration Tag: 121981

    - Mail Migration Wizard LDAP or IMAP4 I am attemption to do a conversion of Mailsite, to Exchange 2003. The documentation suggests that i run the LDAP migration wizard and extract the migration information. When i attempt these steps, after supplying the server, port, and login information i received a "More Data is Available" message. According to microsoft support.com, "A read operation on a pipe has read the requested amount, but the pipe contains more data to read." Contact the supplier of the running application. I have nowhere else to go at this point. if anyone can shed some light it would be greatly appreciated. Tag: 2000 to 2003 migration Tag: 121979

    - Upgrading to Service Pack 1 Hi I have Windows 2003 server running with Exchange 2003 (BE). I also have a Windows 2000 server running Exchange 2003. When I try to upgrade the BE server to Service Pack 1 I receive the error "The component "Microsoft Exchange Messaging and Collaboration Services" cannot be assigned the acton Update because Setup has detected that at least one front end server in this Administrative Group is running an older version of Exchange.

    - Exchange 2003 Mailboxes running slow. We have recently upgraded to Exchange 2003 server on a Cluster environment, running Windows 2003 Cluster Servers. We did have Exchange 2000 working fine, just wanted some of the new features of Exchange 2003. Once we did the upgrades with no real problems. We have started to notice that various mailboxes will run slow periodically. It is moving throughout the server and it isn't always the same mailboxes. They run extremely slow. We have run a defrag on the Information Store and run the nightly routines before our backups. The Backups do not appear to be running during the slow periods. We are having the problem with Office XP, 2000 and 2003 so it doesn't appear to be an Office issue since it is happening with all 3 versions. Any ideas? Thanks, Jeff Tag: 2000 to 2003 migration Tag: 121960

I have a new forest set up with 2003 exchange and
windows. The old forest has 2000 exchange and windows.
While using the Exchange Server Migration Wizard on a
test mailbox it took 45 minutes to move one mailbox. The
mailbox has 3,291 messages and 2,396 KB. I have several
Gig to move. At another company I did a 500 Mb mailbox
in 18 minutes. Any idea what is wrong with this system?
I turned off anti-virus and the machines ping each other
in < 1 ms.
