    - help please - mail server setup If i want to have exchange to be my mail server then what are the steps i need to do using SBS Server 2000? Do i need to register a name such as mail.x.com.au? If so, who (Company) can i do this through? How much will it cost? Then after i have registered, how do i configure exchange to be my mail server? Do i run the internet connection wizard? What are some of the settings i should choose? When i ran the ICW i did not see where and how i configure my SBS server to be the mail server. How do i configure the clients using outlook 2000? At the moment, i have pop3 accounts through my ISP. thanks again Tag: setup exchange server Tag: 101811

    - Disaster Recovery Exchange 5.5 I am going onsite tomorrow to fix an exchange 5.5 issue. The Exchange 5.5 server died (and it was on the PDC). There are information store and directory service backups that were done with Veritas Backup but there were no backups for the PDC so all of the user accounts were lost. The Administrator on site reinstalled the PDC and is setting up a BDC for tomorrow. From what I can gather online is that the restore of the Exchange databases requires the original SIDs for the objects that installed it or it won't let you restore. Is that true? If so, am I hooped? Would it be possible to restore just the mailboxes to another server and save the PST's individually in outlook then import them back into the freshly installed Exchange server? Also, when you use the Import option for Outlook, does it pull the messages into the exchange database? or does it leave it in the local PST in the users profile? Any help would be appreciated. Try and email me directly with the response if at all possible. Thanks in advance.... Rob Gorman MCT, MCSE NT4/2000, CNA, B.Sc.

    - Exchange 2003 multiple sperate domains I have a friend who is an ISP and wants to look at hosting multiple domains for his clients on exchange 2003 / windows 2003. I have found various setups for 2000 which contain many manual steps to seperate the different OU's and address books for each domain. My question is, has this been simplified (point and click) in 2003, or can someone point me to a place to find detailed, step by step instructions for setting this up for him? The books I have found online @ BAMM for Exchange 2003 don't come out till sometime in Sept. and google returns very little info on exchange 2003.

    - Exchange 2003 Queue VIewer I have just finished installing Exchange 2003 on my Windows 2000 server. Everything seems to work except for the Exchange Queue Viewer. When I install my connectors snap in I get "Snap In failed to initialize" A108966C-944F-11D2-9941-00C04F79F1C9. aFTER LOOKING AT THE REGISTRY FOR eXCHANGE 2000 I discovered that this is the queue viewer snap in entry for the viewer and it references ExAdmin.dll. After checking the install logs for 2000 and 2003 I discovered that the 2003 install deletes these snap in keys from nodetype an SnapIn. I also discovered the GUID 001512cc-195e-403c-bc73- 98e72f5358f0 wich refers the the queue viewer with a different class name Exadmin.QView1. I changed my ocx to install with this GUID and got several errors this time when it tried to register and run. My question is what do I have to do to get this to work. The snap in displays properly for the connector but I cannot see the MTS-IN and MTS-OUT queues. I have also set the heuristics value to 0x01000000. Did we install the server incorrectly. This is the protion of the setup log that deletes the queue viewer keys.

    - Mailboxes do not appear in System Manager. We have a mixed-mode environment. 2000/5.5 when creating user accounts in AD along with mailboxes. the mailboxes do not show up in system manager. I do see them in the GAL- however I cannot open these mailboxes (as admin or user). I get an information store cannot be opened error. What I've notice is that the mailboxes do appear on my exchange 5.5 server recipient folder. I am creating these boxes in AD on the 2k exchange server in the appropriate storage group. Is this some sort of replication problem? If so why would the mailboxes show up where they weren't created? Thanks in adv. NET Tag: setup exchange server Tag: 101691

    - Service Account I'm a brand new ES 5.5 user, trying to carry out an installation with the aid of the Quick Setup Guide and On- line Books. Quick Set-up instructs me to create a user a/c named "Exchange Service", but doesn't tell me why. Later, in the Windows NT Service A/c section it states that this is a user a/c that ES uses to log on Winnt Server as a service. It goes on "By default, the user account that is logged on during MS ES Setup is used as the Service Account" The Specifying the Site Service Account section then tells me to select the Windows NT user a/c I want to use as the service a/c. Should I have entered Exchange Service at this point - the document doesn't suggest this, so I didn't. I was logged on as Administrator during install, so that's what is set up as the Service Account right now. What's the disadvantage in leaving this as is? If it's just that we may change the p/w, this is v. unlikely. However, if there are other reasons why I should nominate another a/c (Exchange Service?) as the Service a/c, can I do this by changing the "logon as" entries in the service start-ups to this, and what other rights would I need to assign to that a/c for this to work?

    - ADC Service not started In trying to track down problems I'm having installing Exchange 2003, it came to my attention that I can't replicate the existing ADC between my Exchange 5.5 (WinNT 4) server and the Windows 2000 DC. I'm getting the error that ADC Service is not started and that the replication won't occur until it is started. The problem is, I don't have an ADC or "Active Directory Connector" in my Services manager to start. I ran setup from the Windows 2000 Server cd to try a reinstall/repair, and that completed okay but still no service to start. Should I try installing the ADC from the Windows 2003 cd on the Windows 2000 Domain Controller? Or is there something more sinister at work here?

Move all my users to Windows 2000 AD, w/o losing permssions to their files on the NT 4.0 servers (the NT 4.0 servers will be upgraded later). It appears I cannot upgrade my Exchange 5.5 server directly to Exchange 2000 and Windows 2000 (at the same time). I was wondering if I might upgrade the 5.5 server to WINDOWS 2000, thus adding all my users to AD. However, document 275127 says I cannot install Exchange 5.5 on my 2000 GC. Since I have no other 2000 servers, my exchange box would be the GC. So I am at somewhat of a losss here as to where to start. If I setup my new hardware with Win2k AD and Exchange 2000, I will have to migrate my user accounts and exchange accounts to the new active directory. But I keep finding documents saying that my users will be disabled. Also, will my permissions to existing file servers stay intact? I appreciate any adivce.

    - Exchange 2003 Exchange 5.5 Setup I am configuring Exchange 2003 to coexist with Exchange 5.5 and when running ExDeploy am getting the following message. Warning: Either you do not have permission to view hidden objects in the Exchange 5.5 directory, or the directory is not Exchange 5.5 SP1 or later. Returned information may be inaccurate. Any Ideas? Also, it is not seeing any public folders from the 5.5 site. Thanks, Brian Tag: setup exchange server Tag: 101633

    - exchange setup I would like help on setting up exchange to delete messages as they are received rather than transfering them to the inbox. This is due to the sobig virus it's pounding my antivirus software - I've had over 2,000 alerts today alone. My program is stripping the virus' at the gateway, but I'm trying to find a way to make it delete the whole message because we're being swamped with the bogus emails and it's a hassle to get so much trash in the inbox. I am running Norton AntiVirus for Microsoft Exchange which catches and strips the virus before it is passed on to the user, and then I use Symantec Antivirus Corporate Console to manage each workstation which also has Norton Corporate Edition as a second line of defense. All virus defs are updated daily and everyone has scanned clean. Please email a reply Ian Tag: setup exchange server Tag: 101626

    - SBS 4.5 no Static IP available, how to receive mail I seem to have the same problem as DJ. Before, everything worked fine as we had the ISDN card in another PC with Winproxy. We are now trying to use the hole capabilities of SBS including MS Proxy. All PC's in the LAN have now access to the I-net but none has e-mail (Outlook 2000 for all). I wonder how to set up the pop3 connector in Exchange 5.5 that Martin Lumburn talks about. Thanks in advance Tag: setup exchange server Tag: 101623

    - Exchange 5.5SP4 to Exchange 2000 I am in the process of getting ready to migrate off of Exchange 5.5 SP4 to a newer version on a new server My environment consists of multiple NT.4.0 servers and Win2K servers so I am not running active directory yet. I am not sure if I should go straight to 2003 or stop at 2000. Is one migration path easier and less vulnerable than the other?? Can someone point me to a best practice document or offer any ideas Thanks in advance Tag: setup exchange server Tag: 101620

    - Migrating from IMail to MS Exchange 2003 Hi All: Currently in our company we use IMail server to provide email service to our client. Now we are thinking to replace IMail with MS Exchange server2003 and also wanted to tell you guys that myself only gave the suggestion to replace IMail. When I talk to my manager he told me that, they tried to replace IMail before but they could not do it. because IMail has the feature to create multiple Virtual Host which was not supported by MS Exchange now my question is does MS Exchange has any feature to create virtual host. and I have another question that if want to migrate from IMail server to MS Exchange server what kind of issue I am going face thanks pankaj Tag: setup exchange server Tag: 101618

    - DNS Problems cannot recieve from external email sources OK I have an SBS 2000 system with isa server and exchange 2000 it has 2 network cards. one to the local LAN and one to a broadband link. The broadband link is attached to a NAT router. Network card 1 - LAN 10.0.0.4 subnet 255.x.x.x no gateway with a preffered dns 10.0.0.4 network card 2 - WWW 192.168.0.6 with a default gateway of 192.168.0.1 and dns of 161.58.88.37 (ukdnsservers.co.uk) I can use the exchange internally to send and recieve as you would expect. Externally i can send mail out via a smart host. I have a virtual server pointing to the internet network card 192.168.0.6 and i can connect to this virtual server via telnet from a remote machine and send a message into the exchange. This is where my first problem lies. my message is going into the "messages awaiting directory lookup" i can enumerate the test message but it never resolves to a host. Am i right in assuming my DNS records on my server aren't working if so how do i fix it? I assume i need to set up a host A record and an MX record but where do i point the address to? netdiag tells me re: DNS Test pass - all the dns entries for Dc are registered on dns server 10.0.0.4 warning the dns entries for this DC are not registered correctly on dns warning the dns entries for this DC are not registered correctly on dns Problem 2 lies with my domain. I have 4 domains but at present i only want one to work so that i can convert the others at a later date. I have logged into my domain provider and set up an mx record pointing to my static ip 82.38.x.x When i use checkdns.net and point it to my domain it tells me the mx record is actually pointing to 82.38.x.x.domain.net. Do i set this to my FQDN sbserver.domain.local? I have tried both and both dont work. Other settings on the domain reference a separate web server for www. and http://domain.net, email forwarding is configured as well but doesnt work as it uses the MX record first i assume. Whats going wrong? any ideas. I'm an exchange newbie with certification exams looming closer. Thanks guys Tag: setup exchange server Tag: 101617

hi

just another question. I have registered my domain name.
Is this different to registering a domain for a mail
server?

I want to host my own mail server using SBS Server 2000.

At the moment i am using pop3 accounts. Server is
configured for this. Outlook 2000 is configured to
receive email using pop3 accounts on a dial up
connection. This can become costly.

Help please?

thanks

Hi Jhardy,

You will also have to have your ISP configure an mx record for you that
points to your external IP address.
