    Server loading and architecture

    It's all personal preference and experience at this point IMO. I would recommend getting the network services you need down to the bare minimum. Here's what you listed as requirements: >AD with integrated DNS and DHCP (using private IP's for >the clients) With 35 clients, is DHCP really...

    Authorize DHCP

    ...Can't do it. I had one of "those" migrations (on this lan) to AD, and I'm still cleaning up the messes. One of which is: When I attempt to authorize a DHCP server in the directory (whether it be running on a DC or not) I get the following error message: "The data is...

    Unattended install problems

    I have an unattended install worked out like this: I used Setup Manager (explode <cdrom>Support\Tools\Deploy.cab from the 2k cdrom to install) to create an answer file. I'm using a fully automated Windows 2000 professional type installation. I use the typical TCP/IP settings, change screen...

    5.5-SP4- Priv store file size / offline defrag didn't help (hot water)

    My last 1221 reports 14 MB of white I already ran an offline backup (please re-read the post) and it did not help. File size is the same size. Jeezus... Does this limitation exist in Exch2k? &quot;Nuclear war can ruin your whole compile.&quot; -- Karl Lehenbauer

    5.5-SP4- Priv store file size / offline defrag didn't help (hot water)

    Hey all, I played out my ultimate Exchange fantasy last week- having my standard edition 5.5 server hit the 16GIG limit and stop the store- I ran the offline backup, got the store back up, and went around the cubes with a whip and made TONS/mail go away. But it hasn't... Deleted K in mailbox...

    Does anyone know how to configure Outlook to use the web to get email?

    &quot;Big pipe&quot;. Because MAPI over the web is a hog. To me, it sounds like you'd like to set up Outlook to &quot;download&quot; mail from an Exchange server, i.e POP3. If so, this is very easy to implement. Exchange Administrator -> ORG -> SITE -> Configuration -> Servers ->...

    Building a solid IT department

    Hey guys, I've recently taken a job (for an old client) as IT manager. Whew! I still get to do all the fun stuff (engineering) because I have no staff, so it's not all managerial, in fact very little of it is. I've been in that capacity for the last 2 months. I built most of the...
