    - OWA - SSL exchange 2003 I am trying to Setup OWA to use SSL, I am using the following from 2003 Exchange Server deployment guide chapter 8. I have installed certificate server and created and install my own certificate. After doing below steps, I receive message from browser that Cannot find server - The page cannot be dislpayed - check network settigs I think I am missing something but I am not sure. To set up SSL on a server 1. In IIS Manager, expand the local computer, and then expand the Web Sites folder. Right-click the Web site or file that you want to protect with SSL, and then click Properties. 2. Under Web site identification, click Advanced. 3. In the Advanced Web site identification box, under Multiple identities for this Web site, verify that the Web site IP address is assigned to port 443 (the default port for secure communications), and then click OK. Optionally, to configure more SSL ports for this Web site, click Add under Multiple identities of this Web site, and then click OK. 4. On the Directory Security tab, under Secure communications, click Edit. 5. In the Secure Communications box, select the Require secure channel (SSL) check box. If you require 128-bit key encryption, your users must use Web browsers that support 128-bit encryption. For information about upgrading to 128-bit encryption capability, see the Microsoft Product Support Services Web site (http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=14898). I have allso tried this Enabling SSL for the Default Web Site After you obtain an SSL certificate to use either with your Exchange front-end server on the default Web site or on the site where you host the \RPC, \OMA, \Microsoft-Server-ActiveSync, \Exchange, \Exchweb, and \Public virtual directories, you can enable the default Web site to require SSL. Note The \Exchange, \Exchweb, \Public, \OMA, and \Microsoft-Server-ActiveSync virtual directories are installed by default on any Exchange 2003 installation. The \RPC virtual directory for RPC over HTTP communication is installed manually when you configure Exchange to support RPC over HTTP. For information about how to set up Exchange to use RPC over HTTP, see "Configuring RPC over HTTP for Outlook 2003" later in this chapter. To require SSL 1. In Internet Information Services (IIS), select the Default Web site or the Web site where you are hosting your Exchange services, and then click Properties. 2. On the Directory Security tab, in Secure Communications, click Edit. 3. In Secure Communications, click the Require Secure Channel (SSL) check box. After you complete this procedure, all virtual directories on the Exchange front-end server on the default Web site are configured to use SSL.

    - Exchange 2003 migration problem - incoming email not routed correc We're attempting to complete a migration of our email system from Exchange 5.5 on NT4 SP6a to Exchange 2003 SP1 on Win2003 hotfixed via windows update. The mailboxes have been migrated to the new server using the Exchange Migration Wizard. We can connect to our new exchange server using Outlook and IMAP and view the contents of mailboxes. Mail can be sent via out using the SMTP server and from within Outlook. Our problem is that incoming emails from the internet are not being distributed into mailboxes and emails sent internally to internal users do not reach their destination. The incoming emails from the internet can be seen in Local Delivery Queue, with a state of 'Retry'. There is no sign of the internally sent emails. It may be that the Exchange 2003 server is receiving messages and attempting to route them through back to our old mail server. One possible course of action we are considering is to remove the old server from the organisation. Should this be attempted as a solution to this problem? Can the old server be added back into the organisation if necessary? Any advice to this serious issue gratefully received. Alfonso Tag: 5.5 to 2000 on same W2K machine Tag: 125025

    - email redirection 5.5 to 2003 Hi... Our current setup includes exchange 5.5 in our domain. We are planning to deploy a new win 2003 domain on new servers and will include exchange 2003. I was able to migrate users to the new 2003 AD. The issue I am facing is that I need to change some email IDs for some users in order to standarize our email IDs. For Example user jamseT@company.com on 5.5 becomes jthompson@company.com on exch 2003 Is there a way to let the exchange 2003 server forward the emails coming to jamseT@company.com to jthompson@company.com, although the exchange 5.5 will be down, but the same previous(on 5.5) public domain is used (form ISP). If I manage to keep each exchange in its domain and conneted to the internet independently, how can i let the exchange server 5.5 to forward jamseT@company.com emails to jthompson@company.com Thanx Tag: 5.5 to 2000 on same W2K machine Tag: 125024

    - OWA Login issue I have a 2003 Exchange Enterprise server with OWA configured and working...Kind of. When I log into it I have to use the user@domainname.com to successfully log in. I would like to be able to log in using the alias or the user without the domain name. I have a feeling that I might need to add anothe SMTP address or something like that. I know this can be done as I have had a SBS that worked this way. But the SBS is automatically configured to do this with out too much intervention from the person doing the installation.

Would Exchange 5.5's DL automatically becomes Windows 2003 distribution list? Does it have anything to do with the Universal Group?

    - Exch 5.5 to 2003 ADC question I have a mix of Windows 2003 and NT 4.0 domains each with Exchange 5.5 servers. When I run the ADC tools the log file shows all the mailboxes with NT 4.0 user acounts as "Cannot find match to 'cn=1204, etc." Does this need to be cleaned up before creating any Connection Agreements and if so, how do I clean them up?

    - Upgrading Exchange 5.5 to Exchange 2003 alongwith Windows NT Domai Hello Everyone, My case scenario is as follows: I have an NT4 Domain with a PDC that has Exchange 5.5 running on it. The BDC is only used for Domain replication. I also have 3 Windows 2000 servers that are not Domain Controllers but are a part of the NT Domain and are used for Applications and Terminal Services. I would like to upgrade the NT Domain to Windows 2000/2003 alongwith Exchange 5.5. The dilemma I face is that the Exchange is running on the PDC and I am confused about the installation of AD and the order of upgrade at this point. I would appreciate if someone could guide me through the sequential order in which I can accomplish this upgrade without causing serious repercussions. I appreciate your help in this matter. Thank you, Khurram. p.s. please cc reply to kaliforniakhurram@hotmail.com Tag: 5.5 to 2000 on same W2K machine Tag: 125002

    - Exchange 5.5 on Active Directory I have some questions about Exchange 5.5 running on Active Directory. We currently have Exchange 5.5 running with multiple sites, on W2K server, all servers on NT domains. The bulk of our users and servers have already migrated to our Active Directory domain. We have servers running Exchange 2003. What I want to do is migrate our Exchange 5.5 servers to AD, but we want 5.5 and Exchange 2003 to coexist. We need all our servers on the AD domain and off the NT domains, but we don't want to change our 5.5 enviroment or cripple it. We are not migrating the remaining users to Exchange 2003. The user accounts have already been migrated to AD using the Quest suite of migration tools, trusts exist between NT and AD domains. Can it be done? How? Can the exchange service account be created and swapped to an acccount on the AD domain? Tag: 5.5 to 2000 on same W2K machine Tag: 124984

    - how do i set up exchange to send emails Hi, How do I set exchange up to start sending and receiving emails from the server. At the moment the exchange domain is not an internet domain such as google.com but just 'ourbuisnessname.server'. So the mail boxes that have been set up with each user is 'name@ourbusinessname.server' and because of this no emails are set or received using Exchange. This is causing a few problems and also when I check the day to day running of the server the SMTP server has not started. So I am not getting the daily emails direct from SBS2003 regarding any problems. I thought I had set it up to send emails daily to my email address but I have never received any. I hope this isn't to confusing. I am fairly confused when it comes to setting Exchange up! Cheers Lenny Tag: 5.5 to 2000 on same W2K machine Tag: 124968

    - Mailbox Limit don't work on Outlook Express Hi, I was testing Exchange Mailbox limit and set the warning to be sent out at 45MB, and enable receive but disable send when reached to 50MB storage limit. It works fine when users login using Outlook and OWA, but I found out that if the users login using outlook express, then the limit won't affect the user even though their mailbox already over the 50MB limit. I think Exchange treats it as user relaying messages, so it won't block users who try to send email. Since users are able to send email using OE and receive thru pop3, then the mailbox store limit won't affect them at all, and they could have unlimited storage even there is a mailbox policy in effect. I know I can configure the mailbox management to run and clean the mailbox for me, but it may delete the emails that the users intend to keep. Is there a way for me to make the mailbox policy to work even if they are using OE. Thanks, Alan Tag: 5.5 to 2000 on same W2K machine Tag: 124955

    - Migration: OAB download for remote users We are doing exchange server consolidation by introducing exchange 2003. We currently have one exchange server at every branch office. there are altogether 9 exchange servers. All branch office are connected to an IT Hub via internet VPN with bandwidth ranging from 256kbs to 512kbps. we have about 30 - 40 users at most of the sites... the new exchange 2003 will be located at the hub and all other branch office users will remotely access the new server in future. for this migration, we require all users to enable Cached Mode.. with the settings all users will automatically download OAB when first starting up. and of course, it will give a big impact to our WAN link performance. Currently our OAB size is about 4-5 MB.. Is there a way to mitigate this big OAB download? I believe there are other companies out there also having the same scenario as us and we would like to know how do they handle this problem... thanks Tag: 5.5 to 2000 on same W2K machine Tag: 124951

    - delayed messages or unable to send? Hi, I am having a few problems with sending emails. I have set up SBS2003 with Exchange and users. These users are only using exchange at the moment to share calendars. All emails are (or should be) sent and received via pop3 accounts (me2uweb, who host the site) using outlook 2003. For some reason though the users get the odd message back from the server. Sometimes it is saying that the email couldn't be delivered and othertimes it is saying that the email has been delayed. Why is this because the emails shouldn't be going via the server (Exchange) at all. Also when I set the server up the domain was the office name. This isn't a 'real' internet name so nothing gets sent out via the server. How can I set Exhange to use a POP 3 account to send and receive emails or even better how do I set Exchange up to accept and send emails automatically? Any thoughts would be greatly received.

    - Do I need ADC migrating from 5.5 to 2003 I'm about to migrate an Exchange 5.5 mailserver running on Windows 2000 server to Exchange 2003 on Windows2003. The current mailserver (5.5) is already connected to Windows2003 AD. Do I need to install ADC to do the migration? Tag: 5.5 to 2000 on same W2K machine Tag: 124947

    - Company Website and Outlook Web Access on Same Server - Problem We have installed Exchange 2003 (update) on a Windows Server 2003. We run the Company Website and Exchange on the same Server. Since we have installed Exchange 2003 today, our Website does not work anymore (we have to enter the same password like entering Outlook Web Access). The Outlook Web Access works fine as before with Exchange 2000. What rights do I have to change back that the regular Company Website does work again? Did the Exchange 2003 setup change anything?

    - Incoming mail during Exchange 5.5 to 2003 migration Hello - We're about to migrate from NT4 / Exchange 5.5 win Win 2003/Exchange 2003. We'll create a new Exchange 2003 organisation, using ADMT and ADC to handle the account and mailbox moves. Given that the Exchange migration will span several days, both old and new servers will host active mailboxes along the way. In that case, what's the best way to maintain incoming email to users on both servers? Presumably, the 5.5 servers will continue to accept incoming mail , because that setup remains intact during migration. Does the ADC know about mailboxes that have been migrated and send the mail across (I didn't have that impression)? I ask so because if we configure the gateway to send incoming mail to both servers, surely the 2003 servers will generate NDRs for mailboxes they don't yet host? This begs the question of address ownership - my understanding is that Exchange 2003 doesn't have a user's SMTP addresses until they've been migrated - is that right? Does the ADC does not maintain mailflow between the servers? Also, is it the case that, as far as Exchange 2003 is concerned, it does not impose SMTP addresses on mailboxes that correspond to the domain name of the AD - which will be different from the email domain name? I'd be grateful for any relevant advice. Many thanks. Loftus. Tag: 5.5 to 2000 on same W2K machine Tag: 124940

    - Front end or back end for RPC-Http I have a single Exchange 2003/Win 2003 server running in my company. The server is behind a firewall that accepts mail and passes it to the Exchange server. I am trying to setup RPC over HTTP for my mobile users, but haven't been able to accomplish this. While looking through server properties I came across the RPC-HTTP tab. It's set on "Not part of an Exchange managed RPC-HTTP topology....... Do I need to set it to one of the over options? The second option is grayed out. Thanks everyone.

    - config_CA/SRS problem & Installing Exchange 2003 in Different Site Currently we are running Exchange 5.5 on a W2K Server. We have proceeded to deploy Exchange 2003 Enterprise on W2K but setup completes but SRS is NOT installed and the config_CA is not created. (Migration was tested and successful in test environment). We get errors saying that the Exchange 2003 cannot connect to Exchange 5.5, due to there being no config_CA between Exchange 2003 and Exchange 5.5 when we try to connect to Exchange 5.5 from the 2003 Exchange System Manager. We are also unable to move any mailboxes to the new Exchange 2003 Server due to this error. Here is an error log from the Exchange 2003 Setup log file stating that SRS is not going to be installed... " [10:32:31] We have detected an existing Org, we will attempt to discover whether a mixed admin group and/or SRS requires the 5.5 account info " [10:32:31] Entering ScDecideIfSRSShouldBeEnabled " [10:32:31] The SRS will not be enabled. " [10:32:31] Leaving ScDecideIfSRSShouldBeEnabled " [10:32:31] There are no 5.5 server on the site. About to check is the site in the mixed mode.

There are no 5.5 servers but an SRS exists. We WILL need the password Our Exchange 5.5 Server currently has an existing config_CA from a previous attempt to migrate to Exchange 2000(which was not completed). As well, there is a partial list of 'disabled' users and distribution lists in the Exchange OU in AD. We speculate that our Exchange 2003 installation failed on SRS/ADC config_CA possibly due to this old, existing ADC config_CA from the previous migration to Exchange 2000 having been incomplete. Questions 1: Would it be be safe to be able to delete these disabled users/Distribution List's from AD without effecting the Distribution Lists on Exchange? Question 2: We are trying to determine if deleting the existing old ADC config_CA on the Exchange 5.5 server will effect any sort of "AD to Exchange 5.5" replication. The config_CA that is in place right now is Scheduled to replicate "NEVER" and is pointing back to itself for AD/Exchange replication. So essentially, the config_CA isn't in use at all, is it? Question 3: We are also looking at options to install a NEW Exchange 2003 Server in a Different Site, and manually using Exmerge.exe to import the mailboxes from Exchange 5.5 into Exchange 2003. We would then uninstall the first Exchange 2003 server and decomission it. We are having a tough time finding resources on Installing Exchange 2003 in a Different Site. Any ideas/info/links would be appreciated. Avtechs Tag: 5.5 to 2000 on same W2K machine Tag: 124929

There will be mailboxes on both servers I want to be able to send email out to the internet from both of these servers for fault tolerance; so that, if either a)the link goes down, or b)the server at one office goes down, the mail will flow out through the other connector.
