  • 1. Problem with second Exchange Server (2003)
    My Exchange organization has been functioning fine for a while but now i have installed a second server and although it seemed to install fine, it has a critical problem. I wanted to move a mailbox to the new server and it gets this error up clicking the second server under Administrative Groups: "The action could not be completed because the Microsoft Exchange Information service is unavailable. Be sure the service is running and you have network connectivity to the Microsoft Exchange Server computer Operation: Retrieving mount information. ID no: c1041721 Exchange System Manager" Ive checked the services and the settings in DNS and pinged the server by IP and by name. The services are running and i even started a few more as a last ditch. This should have been a simple install but i guess not. Can anyone help? Thanks Eric Twing

  • 4. OWA not working outside the firewall
    I had to delete our CA server and reinstall it. I have setup OWA to use the certificate. OWA using SSL works perfect at our office. When we go home it doesn't work outside our firewall. I do have tcp port 443 open on the firewall. Also, it worked fine before I had to delete the certificate. What could be causing OWA to not work? I have tested just plain http OWA and it works fine.
  • 5. new install - users receive multiple copies of the same email from within
    hi users are getting the same email several times, this seems to be only when one user send to multiple other users -it does not involve external email (inbound or out bound) - and it does not happen on a one to one email. what may be related; some email to multiple internal users is returned to the sender .. Could not deliver the message in the time limit specified. Please retry or contact your administrator. <mta5.srv.hcvlny.cv.net (tcp-daemon) #4.4.7> what also confuses me is that the message seems to come from our ISP - but these are all one exchange user to another! exchange server 2003 sp2 windows server 2003 standard edition any ideas?

Exchange in existing organization--How to?

Postby VmluZWV0 » Mon, 14 Feb 2005 20:43:02 GMT 

Hi,
I am installing a second exchange server 2003 in my exchange organization, 
which is basically for our branch office.
Both offices are connected my medium speed WAN link which has 7 to 8 hops 
between them. I am going to create a VPN tunnel over Ipsec between two 
offices.
I have created a new Domain for new office in existing forest, make it a GC 
(Global catalog) and installed the Exchange on the new DC.
I am doing some testing by keeping the server in my office itself. 
Everything is working fine i.e. mail flow and replication.
Automatically the new exchange server has come in the same routing group and 
gets marked as slave. I have an SMTP connector for outgoing mails. I have 
added the new server as a bridgehead server on the connector. So, I am able 
to send mail outside from new exchange. Internal mails are also flowing 
without using SMTP connector. If I send a mail to some user in older domain 
of same organization it doesn go through Internet connector. It flowing 
internally.  That what required. Gal is replicating. 

I have some queries:

1.	Right now the servers are on LAN, if we move the servers to new office. 
Same configuration will work smoothly? Both the offices will get connected 
through VPN. Is it required to create a new routing group, moving the server 
to new routing group and creating a routing group connector?
2.	As we are installing the second exchange in existing organization. Is it 
required to run the forest prep again? Should we run Domain Prep on root DC 
or just on the DC we are going to install the exchange?

Thanks...Vineet

2.Adding an Exchange 2003 server to an existing Exchange 2000 Organization 

This is a simple one I hope someone can answer.

I have an existing Exchange 2000 organisation with two mail servers. I am 
adding a third Exchange 2003 box to sit along side them so I can slowly 
migrate over blah blah blah.

A question or two:

1) If I run domain prep (as suggested) are there any side effects on the 
Exchange 2000 and Windows 2000 Domain and A.D?

2) Yes I get the stupid LinkId=37488 warning which I choose to ignore but 
does it REALLY have any effect on the existing framework?

3) I choose the Coexistence mode option as my Org is mixed and not native, 
though I have no ADC's or e5.5 boxes. Is this the right option or is it best 
to as they say 'go native' first?

Your help would be greatly received.

3.Installing Exchange 2003 into existing Exchange 5.5 organization 

I am preparing to on installing Exchange 2003 and posted a question previously.

I am currently running Exchange 5.5 and my plan is to install Exchange 2003 on a new server and move the mailboxes and public folders. We have about 50 users.

The answer I received on my previous post said I need to install Exchange 2003 into the existing Exchange 5.5 organization. I don't understand what this means? Do the servers need to have the same name? If so how could this be possible? Can anyone explain what I need to do in more detail or direct me to a tech note? I have the deployment guide but I haven't come across this in it.

Thanks

4.Move Existing Exchange 2003 Organization to a new forest 

Hello everyone,

I have a quick "is it possible" question. Here is the scenario:

1)Two forests. One Forest is Windows 2003 (Forest A), in 2003 Forest Mode,
the other is Windows 2008 in 2003 Forest Mode (Forest B)

2)Forest A is created based on the old "empty root" model. A child
"resource" domains contain Exchange organization and servers, and user
accounts are pulled from other domains in Forest A.

3)Forest B is a single forest, single domain

4)Two way transitive trust exists between Forest A and Forest B. (Both
domains are in 2003 Forest Functional Mode.)

My question then, is:  is it possible, either via ADMT, or some other
mechanism, to completely move / migrate the Exchange Organization and
supporting servers from Forest A to Forest B, and have the new Forest B
accounts access the email?

Thanks in advance.

5.Can't Join Exchange 2k3 Server to Existing 5.5 Organization 

I am upgrading from Windows 2000/exchange5.5 to Windows 2003/Exchange 2003. 
AD is in place, Forestprep and Domainprep ran successfully, the ADC is 
running, and the Exchange 2003 deployment tools all completed successfully. 
When I attempt to install Exchange 2003 to a new Windows 2003 member server 
in the domain the option to "Join an existing Exchange 
5.5 orginization" is grayed out. What am I doing wrong? 
Thank you for your suggestions
