Microsoft Connectivity Analyzer Tool-Offline Tool

$

Hi,

We have a single forest with multiple domain controllers in different sites.Our environment isnot exposed to Internet.We have  two mailbox servers in an exchange 2013 DAG and two CAS Servers behind a load balancer. presently we have issues creating outlook profiles in many sites and i am looking for a way to troubleshoot the issue as most of them are behind firewalls.

When creating a profile outlook 2013 fails at logon to the server with the error

The connection to the Microsoft Exchange Server is unavailable. Outlook must be online or connected to complete this action.

1.What are the ports used by outlook when creating a new profile,and later on what ports are required for mailflow for my environment.

2.Is any offline tool similar to the Microsoft Remote Connectivity Analyzer available to test outlook connectivity?

In an Exchange Self Signed Certificate, make DNS Names order in SAN a difference?

$

I have an Exchange Self Signed Certificate in which the SAN (Subject Alternative Name) have 14 DNS Names (Nearly have of the DNS Names are AutoDiscover).

For speed, etc; does it matter in which order the DNS Names are placed in the SAN?

If it is, is the difference so large that is make sense to change the order?

Thanks

Exchange stops responding on port 25

Hi

Im running Exchange 2010 and all of a sudden it stops responding/listening on port 25. I cannot receive any emails. To test, I run telnet from the exchange server on port 25 and it fails. It seems to be intermittent, but its stops about every 5-6 hours. sometimes every 2 hours (but this is rare). The only way to remedy is to reboot the server.

Any ideas what I can check or look out for?

Many Thanks

Steps for renewing Exchange Delegation Federation Self-signed certificate with no downtime?

$
0
0

I'm using Hybrid Office 365 and Exchange Server 2013 SP1.
We are in the migration phase where there are mailboxes and Public Folders in both places.

What are the steps that I can take to renew the Exchange Delegation Federation Self-signed certificate?

Exchange Delegation Federation Self-signed certificateIssuer: CN=FederationStatus ValidAssigned to servicesSMTP, Federation

Is there any expected outage or this can be done during business hours with no interruptions to the users or Remote Move Migration?

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/exchange/renew-the-federation-certificate-exchange-2013-help

I assume I will need to go through this steps for each and every Exchange servers in my OnPremise DC (8 nodes DAG)?
Update a working federation certificate (expiring in 3 days)

Step 1: Create a new federation certificate
     Do I need to specify both -Services Federation,SMTP like in the existing certificate Assigned to services?
      or should I just follow the -Services Federation verbatim like in the steps suggested?

Step 2: Configure the new certificate as the federation certificate
     I will follow as mentioned with my updated Thumbprint.
      
Step 3: Update the federation proof of domain ownership TXT record in external DNS
     Do I have to change and verify all TXT records for each and ever Accepted email domains? I have about 59+ accepted email domains.
      
Step 4: Verify the distribution of the new federation certificate to all Exchange servers
     Wait for 15 - 30 minutes for the AD replication.
      
Step 5: Activate the new federation certificate

Exchange 2007 public folder

Hello

some years ago I have migrated all mailboxes from Exchange 2007 to Exchange 2013.
I still have 2 Exchange 2007 one in main site and another in a subsidiary.
The Exchange in subsidiary still hosts PF.
Both exchange server 2007 are up and running because if I turn off Exchange 2007 or dismount public folder database in the main site, the public folder on subsidiary stop to works.
I would like to shut down the Exchange server 2007 in main site. While the EX2007 on secondary site will be shut down in 4-5 months when we'll perform the migration.

I don't understand why stopping server in main site,  causes stop working on subsidiary's PF and how I can sort out.

I just supposed that this is due to replication, but I don't know if I can stop the replica with  GUI, safely and can roll back in case doesn't solve.

Active Sync stop working after enforcing TLS 1.1 - 1.2

Hi Guys, 

Hope someone can help with this. 

Setup: 

Exchange 2013 one server, behind a Microsoft ARR server. Active Sync is all working correctly  with SSL 3.0 TLS 1.1 and 1.2 enabled

Issue:

When I disable SSL 3.0 Active Sync stop working, or more correctly only works intermittently for some phones (Samsung, Iphone). Power Cycling the phone does not help. All other feature of Exchange 2013 look to be working. OWA, Internal Email, RPC, ETC.

When I roll back and enable SSL 3.0 again. All device connect again.

I am wondering if this is a rollover and old Active Sync connection needing to be reset. (Except they should have been reset with a reboot of the server.) 

Anyone got any idea on what might be creating this problem.  Please note I can only Trouble shoot this issue on the Weekend. 

Thanks for your time in Advance.

Undeliverable - Inbound Proxy Probe (Exchange 2013) - healthmailbox email address using wrong domain

$
0

Hi all,

We have two Exchange 2013 servers in a DAG which use a mail gateway smart host for inbound/outbound message filtering. The exchange environment accepts email for two domains, lets say abc.local is the primary and xyz.local is the lesser used domain for only a few recipients (note, the actual domains are legitimate domain names).

I notice a lot of messages to inboundproxy@contoso.com outbound which appear to be delivery failures for emails to our Exchange health mailboxes go out of our mail gateway. After a lot of digging, I have noticed that the delivery failure is for:

healthmailboxxxxxx@xyz.com

If I run get-mailbox -monitoring -identity healthmailboxxxxxx | fl the primarysmtpaddress: healthmailboxxxxxx@abc.com

But under emailaddresses there is an entry: SIP:healthmailboxxxxxx@xyz.com

So it looks like exchange is trying to email the wrong address domain for the health mailboxes, generating NDR's and they are being sent to the real contoso.com domain and getting rejected.

How can I either tell the monitoring service to email the abc.com health mailbox address OR change the health mailbox email address to xyz.com?

Thanks in advance.

Exchange 2013 and Exchange 2010 Coexistence - Transport rules processing twice or once?

$
0
0

Hi, from what I read on TechNet I understand that transport rules are stored in Active Directory. During the setup of Exchange 2013 transport rules are read from AD and imported in Exchange 2013. So I will have a copy of XCH2010 transport rules in XCH2013. My question is: during coexistence are transport rules applied twice then? For example: I have a rule that processes all messages sent or received in my company and forwards a copy to a specific mailbox (it's a journaling basically). Do I have to expect that if user A (on XCH2010 DB) sends an email to user B (on XCH2013 DB), I will have two emails in my journaling mailbox? In other words, is a transport rule application scope "organization wide" or "server wide"?

Thank you,

Critical Event - 2158 "Event 64 (Search) of severity 'Critical' occurred 3 more time(s)

$

Hey all. Really weird issue and google isn't being very helpful here. I am occasionally getting "Event 64 (Search) of severity 'Critical' occurred 3 more time(s) and was suppressed in the event log" with EventID 2158. If I filter to show event 64, i get no results. If I run a Get-Serverhealth | where{$_.AlertValue -eq "Unhealthy"} there are no health components in unhealthy status. 

I am not seeing any way of tracking down what this is even alerting about, let alone how to fix it. the only thingI have seen through googling is "try installing the latest CU" i am already on CU 12 and am not ready to upgrade everything to CU 13 for a little while yet. Has anyone seen this and can tell me what this is and how to fix?

Thank you!


Exchange 2010 Sp3 RU 29 Poison Queue

Hello,

I didn't find a Forum for Exchange legacy version, so I post here.

And now for my issue:

We recently install Exchange 2010 sp3 RU 29 (From E2010SP3RU25). After a few the we start getting message stuck in poison queue, every time this message get stuck the EDGETRANSPORT.EXE is killed.

I checked and find out, why this message ate getting stuck.

The message where submitted in Multi-function printer via scanner to email, this machine where wrongly configured and accepted invalid mail (like '-', '?').

Exchange should defend it self against this error, every time I resubmit this message it crashes the EDGETRANSPORT.EXE again.

  • Environment

The Scanner relay the message to a smtp server (Exchange 2010 Transport server), this server relay the message to Thr transport server in the same site as the mailbox server.

All server have Exchange 2010 SP3 RU 29 in Windows 2008 r2,  updated, servers.

Only the transport server in the mailbox server site have Forefront to Exchange install, and this are the server that crashes.

Exchange 2013 strange recall failure from user who is not direct/indrect recipient, how to find what's wrong?

$

Hi there,

Server side Exchang2013cu21 with DAG in 2 nodes, both running on Win2012r2 server, with mail-enabled public folders.

Client side outlook 2010/2013.

Say we have a mail-enabled public folder PF-GROUP1, a distribution list called DL-GROUP1; if sending email to DL-GROUP1, members of this group & PF-GROUP1 will receive that email.

Now we just found out that if sent email to DL-GROUP1 & recall it,  somehow received 2 recall failures from 2 internal users who are not member of DL-GROUP1, these 2 internal users also not having PF-GROUP1 as favorites public folder.

Asked another internal user to send email to DL-GROUP1 & recall, he also got the same 2 recall failures from those 2 internal users who are not member of DL-GROUP1.

From exchange server console, verified that email sent to DL-GROUP1 only sent to members & PF-GROUP1.

Checked members of DL-GROUP1 don't have mailflow settings to fwd email to those 2 internal users who are not member of DL-GROUP1.

Where else should I check what's wrong? 

Should you need more info, please feel free to discuss, many thx!

Rgds, eyeteelo

 



Issues accessing EAC

Removed delegate permissions but calendar notifications are still being sent to delegate

$

0

Exchange 2013, Outlook 2010

Old delegate still getting copies of meeting acceptance, although PowerShell isn't showing any delegation or forwarding.

Here's the scenario:

1. User A schedules a meeting on her calendar and invites user B.

2. User B accepts the invitation.

3. User C gets the meeting notification only AFTER User B accepts the invitation.

The sender, User A used to be a delegate of User C. Delegation has been completely removed, and there are no calendar permissions. Why is user C getting the meeting notifications? How can I find what's triggering the notification?

There must be something lingering somewhere....I would just like to completely remove all traces of the old delegation but can't find any.

Thanks in advance!
