That person will get an NDR from the ISP's mail server and Yours. -----Original Message----- From: Muqeem Syed [mailto:Syed.Muqeem@xxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: 05 February 2002 21:15 To: [ExchangeList] Subject: [exchangelist] RE: Help Please!!!! Importance: High http://www.MSExchange.org/ Another thing Richard and all Exchange 2K Server Brethern, How can I enable the Exchange server to forward all NDR mails to my account, say that some one sends a mail destined for a mailbox that does not exist on the server... how can I enable the server to froward the mail to my account as well. Please note that we are using the DNS services of our service provider (relay mails to the smart host), when i send a mail to a non-existent account I get a reply as below. So in this case whose MTA is doing the auto-reply of NDR to the reciepients and how can I enable the server to be able to recieve a copy of any mails bound for a non-existent mailbox on my domain and at the same time send an NDR to the sender.

I was certianly not blind .. but ignorant.... Thanks a lot -----Original Message----- From: Richard Pettigrew [mailto:Richard@xxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Tuesday, February 05, 2002 10:19 PM To: [ExchangeList] Subject: [exchangelist] RE: Help Please!!!! http://www.MSExchange.org/ The organisation name is at the very top of the hierarchical structure in the Exchange System Manager. The Exchange Server name will be the same as your Windows 2000 Server name, unless you have renamed it. You can locate the physical location of the Information store files by checking: Administrative Groups > Servers > Servername >First Storage Group and then right clicking on "First Storage Group" and choosing Properties. This will tell you the location of the: "Transaction Log File" and the "System Path location" The actual databases for the Information store can found by doing the following: Go to... Administrative Groups > Servers > Servername >First Storage Group > Mailbox Store and right click on the Mailbox store, select "Database" here you will see that paths to the Exchange database "Priv1.edb" this is Private Information Store file that contains all the mailboxes. You can dismount this store by right clicking on the "Maibox Store" and selecting Dismount. Hope this helps. -----Original Message----- From: Muqeem Syed [mailto:Syed.Muqeem@xxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: 05 February 2002 19:38 To: [ExchangeList] Subject: [exchangelist] RE: Help Please!!!! Importance: High http://www.MSExchange.org/ Thanks guys,... I have one more question to trouble you all with... How can I determine the organisation name, name of administrative group and the logical databse name... the white paer says that it should be visible when using the exchange system manager... but I think I am more blind.... can some one please help me to find out what the name and the other detials are... Thanks -----Original Message----- From: Richard Pettigrew [mailto:Richard@xxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Tuesday, February 05, 2002 8:28 PM To: [ExchangeList] Subject: [exchangelist] RE: Help Please!!!! http://www.MSExchange.org/ I think your best bet here is to do the following: 1.The hardware does not have to be identical. 2.Install the OS to be identical as that of the original (easier if you have a system state backup) 3.Install Exchange to be identical setup to the original (you must re-create all the mailboxes again though if you did not have a system state backup to restore) 4.Dismount the Information store 5.Restore from your backup the folders containing the information store data. 5.Re-mount the Information store. This is in essence what you require to do. The instructions are not exact and the procedure may differ slightly depending on your setup. Hope this helps. Further reading on the subject can be found at: http://ftp.support.veritas.com/pub/support/products/Backup_Exec_for_Wind owsNT/BeAdmin86_240870.pdf This is a download pdf format documentation of Backup Exec and agents. It outlines procedures for exchange backup and restore and may of of some help to you. -----Original Message----- From: Lacaille, Michael [mailto:MLacaille@xxxxxxxx] Sent: 05 February 2002 17:08 To: [ExchangeList] Subject: [exchangelist] RE: Help Please!!!! http://www.MSExchange.org/ I have not done this, but we have just recently helped another Exchange administrator on site implement Tivoli back up for our server. From what I understand about restoring the IS, is that it would need to be put on a server that is identical to the existing server. I hope that someone else who has more experience, can assist you with this issue. Good luck! -----Original Message----- From: Muqeem Syed [mailto:Syed.Muqeem@xxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Tuesday, February 05, 2002 11:39 AM To: [ExchangeList] Subject: [exchangelist] RE: Help Please!!!!
