We have a few thousand workstations we need to put into Active Directory. Do you know of any tools to help manage & automate provisioning certain user accounts to be admin's of their local box?

Man, This is prooving to be extremely difficult. I have dealt with multiple Microsoft Exchange team people and they even can answer this. Lets say we want to run 2 different domains on the same exchange. We have 2 users in different groups, and I have created both an independant Address List...

This should be simple, but I am not getting it. End user has email which shows sent at 1:15 pm, and claims it was received until 3 hours later. I checked the headers and am confused by the time zone. I am guessing it didnt take 3 hours to deliver, but somebody/somehwere has time zone messed...

We are running a Dell power edge 1855 dual 3.6 Ghz machine with only 1 GB of memory. We are running MS Active Directory with 130,000 objects and using 3 different machines to concurrently process about 1,000,000 LDAP lookups a day. After about a week our LDAP became qwirky..some results said...

We want to create an LDAP directory of just user names and email addresses. It seems to be easy, but I guess I am missing something. For example, I create a CN=Users,DC=test,DC=com and then an object with a test user and fill in the mail field with a fake email address. However, I think I am...

Currently we have 2 Exchange 2003 servers, a front end and back end. We support POP, IMAP, MAPI and rpc over http. When users logon externally and use POP/IMAP and send an email, it leaves our back end server. When users logon internally using Oulook, mail is sent out from our BE server. Is...

If I purchase 2 PIX 515E's, I understand I can create a site to site connection between the two. My question is can I have them both use the same inside IP address range? Looking at the simple example: http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/110/38.html They use 2 different internal IP ranges, and I...

We are in the process of migrating to a larger mail server and we can increase the size limits. Unfortunately some of the users from the old mailserver had custom mailbox size limits set, which are smaller than the new default limits. Is there a ldap query we can use to search our users to see...

I have jumped into an already existing network, so here goes: When I goto the sysvol share and right click/permissions the domain folder inside, it has a DFS tab. In the DFS tab it lists all our domain controllers, but only one shows this folder as active. Should all of our DC's have this...

Another admin installed a CA on a file server for testing purposes. Not sure how/what was configured, but according to the admin, we are not using any certificates from it, and its not needed. All is fine and dandy until I create a new domain controller and use dcpromo to promote it. The...

We have just migrated a user from Exch 5.5 to Exch 2003. The end user is using Office 2003. Once they have been migrated, we have them check to enable the cached exchange mode. After checking and hitting okay, and going back, it is unchecked again. We have tried creating this same user...

We have migrated users from Exchange 5.5/NT to Windows 2003/Exchange 2003. All latest service packs and that jazz. Anyways, we support users running IMAP, POP3 and SMTP as well as MAPI. *some* users sending via SMTP get errors stating they are not allowed to send as that user (they are...

We are running Exchange 2003 and hosting about 1500 users. We are part of a larger organization that has about 20,000 users. This system is not running windows, and they give us an export of these users we want to import into a custom address book in our Exchange 2003. I figure I can figure...

We migrated our users from NT to 2003 using Microsoft ADMT. I created all our users and permissions as expected except for the logon name and domain are blank. If you open active directory and check the properties of a user account and hit the Account tab, where it says user logon name, its...

We have 3 domain controllers and an Exchange Server. I would like to have all 4 of them only communicate IPSec between the bunch. Further I would like all 4 of these servers to IPSec to the Admin Workstations. On DC #1 I created local IPSec policies to use IPSec encryption when talking to my...

I was thinking about security and an easy method to secure traffic between domain controllers. Would it be possible to add a 2nd nic to each domain controller and put them on a private network. Then have all domain controller chatter be forced to use the private network? This would still...

Does brightstor allow us to use variables in the job email? Currently we have a static email subject, called Backup Job and use the job log attachment feature to describe the job. Well, at the end of the day when I have 24 emails all called "Backup Job" its very lame to have to open each email...

So I got a couple of Dell servers and installed the latest OpenManage. I configured SNMP to forward traps to my workstation. My workstation also has SNMP set to listen, and also installed the OpenManage IT Assistant. Using OM ITA I can see my servers, check their status and all is dandy. I...

I am sure this is a rare one but not sure the best place to post this. So we had problems on running windows update and I visted this page for help: http://www.updatexp.com/0x800a0046.html The advice was to run a command line to reset the security descriptors on the windows update service...

We are migrating from an Exchange 5.5/NT system to Windows 2003/Exchange 2003. We have 2 old Exchange 5.5 boxes and now have a 2003 FE and BE, which are all in the same exchange organization. Our FE is used for POP, IMAP, OWA and SMTP connections. We have the public store dismounted, but the...
