These errors are filling my Application log, in spurts of a few hours. They stop for a while, but then come back. The link within the error indicates to call Symantec tech support, which I will probably do, but I'm wondering if anyone else is seeing these: Event ID: 1050 Category MExRuntime The...

You could start by reading Microsoft Exchange Server 2007 Unleashed: http://www.tek-tips.com/viewthread.cfm?qid=1352891&page=1 Most of it will not apply to your small organization, but it will give you a good background on the product. I wouldn't recommend diverting email to your new server...

Its odd how just posting a question triggers the answer... I tried adding the -GlobalCatalog:dc1.domain.com and that did the trick.

Pat, so far my transition is going well. I have everything running properly on the 2007 box now, and I've moved a few users over as a test. I am using this command to move them: move-mailbox -DomainController:dc1.domain.com I then specify the database and the account. It was working fine for...

Thanks Pat. Are you saying that the EMC will not work at all until I drop the 2K box?

Sorry, I should also mention that my main DC's, GC and all FSMO roles reside on Win2k3 R2 boxes and the domain and forest are currently at 2000 level (because of the one remaining 2000 AD box, the existing Exchange server). There is also an Exchange 2003 server running on the domain, at another...

Pat, I came here looking for an answer to a contradiction I read in "Unleashed", and saw that you read the book. Maybe you can help. In chapter 15, page 459, the book states that "the forest in which Exchange 2007 will reside needs to be at a forest functional level of Windows Server 2003"...

What version are you coming from? My upgrade failed with an error indicating that the database did not migrate. My job logs and job definitions were gone. Interestingly, the catalogs are available in the restore window and I was able to do a test restore. This was coming from version 9. Be...

I wouldn't go so far as to say it cost them nothing. From what I understand it is more complex than the tweak to Windows. That said, I'm sure Microsoft is profiting substantially from this as there are plenty of E2K servers running out there.

So, from all I'm reading, if I apply all of the patches except the $4k Exchange 2000 patch, I'll just have problems with OWA timestamps and appointments? This shouldn't be a problem for us at all. I read somewhere that someone was worried that the Information Stores wouldn't mount if the patch...

Im trying to restore a file that was located on a Novell server, backed up by a Microsoft server with Backup Exec and a remote agent on the Novell. We have since shut down our entire Novell network and the original server does not exist. I try running a restore to redirect the file to the C...

Is there a way to prevent Windows from resetting the archive bit after you modify rights on the folder? I recently restructured my data among servers and everytime we tweak the rights I have to put a hold on my incremental backups until I've run a full. Thanks.

Recently noticed that if you rebuild a computer with Windows XP SP1 and let it sit for an hour, it gets a registry run entry of "System Service", file servicei.exe. If you delete it, it comes back, until you apply critical updates. Not sure if SP2 or one of the critical updates is fixing it...

We think it may be the 'isavepercent' variable, a feature of Autocad that allows partial saves in order to save time. It defaults to zero in the install of Architectural Desktop 3.3. For some reason this was set to 100 on this particular computer. A few tech articles at Autodesk suggest that...

We, too, have this set to OFF. We also have to set File Caching at the workstation to OFF and your post reminded me of this. I was hoping that I had forgotten to set this, but, alas, it was OFF. Actually, we DO have 4.90sp2, I was mistaken. BUT 4.91 is available, so we have installed this...
