Hi all, Windows server 2000 & exchange server..... One of our staff is writing a program to read VoIP call files and to marry them up with network users via Ldap to read the active directory users but it is very hit and miss as to connecting to the service, reading the web many people have this problem but no one gives a complete answer the only real clue is if we run the app on the exchange server it is ok but a workstation is hap hazard, it seems something has to be set on the server to allow the workstations the same access as if running it on the server but I cannot find anything in security policies etc anyone shed a light on what needs altering on the server please??????

You're not really playing around with this in your production org, are you? Anyhow, this tech rides on the Exchange 2000 technology - if I recall correctly, you can't have the IM functionality up and running without Exchange 2000 present as well. The schema needs to be extended (which you presumably did since you're seeing the IM capabilities in ADUC) but it needs to be fully configured from within ESM before you can enable it for users. Note I'm working from (admittedly slipping) memory here - I worked with this for a couple clients in years past but not recently. Maybe go thru step by step what you did so we can be sure we understand - and I really really suggest playing around with it on a couple test boxes before you go any further and wind up breaking something you didn't want to.

Our DC's are both Win2K3 standard Edition and our Exchange Server is Win2K Advanced. I installed the Instant Messaging software from the Exchange 2000 CD onto a Win2K3 Standard machine that is a member server. I understand that Exchange 2000 is not compatible with Win2K3 however I am not using the mail services and thought I would give it a try before re-installing the server I intend to use. Basically, on the Win2K3 machine I installed the software and System Manager. When I go to the "Exchange Features" tab, of the user I intend to use, I click on "Enable" and I am asked for a IM Home Server. The problem is that the "Browse" button is disabled. Is this because of Win2K vs. Win2K3 with Exchange 2000 (possibly)? Or is there a step that I am missing? P.S. Why not use Exchange 2003? For licensing reasons. P.P.S. Why do you want to use IM? Because we are currently using an antiquated version of ICQ Corporate Edition on an old NT4 domain that I want to get rid of and this will be the final step. ------------------------------------------------------ List Archives: http://www.webelists.com/cgi/lyris.pl?enter=exchangelist Exchange Newsletters: http://www.msexchange.org/pages/newsletter.asp Exchange FAQ: http://www.msexchange.org/pages/larticle.asp?type=FAQ ------------------------------------------------------ Other Internet Software Marketing Sites: World of Windows Networking: http://www.windowsnetworking.com Leading Network Software Directory: http://www.serverfiles.com No.1 ISA Server Resource Site: http://www.isaserver.org Windows Security Resource Site: http://www.windowsecurity.com/ Network Security Library: http://www.secinf.net/ Windows 2000/NT Fax Solutions: http://www.ntfaxfaq.com ------------------------------------------------------ You are currently subscribed to this MSEXchange.org Discussion List as: markfu@xxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe visit http://www.webelists.com/cgi/lyris.pl?enter=exchangelist Report abuse to listadmin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx ------------------------------------------------------ List Archives: http://www.webelists.com/cgi/lyris.pl?enter=exchangelist Exchange Newsletters: http://www.msexchange.org/pages/newsletter.asp Exchange FAQ: http://www.msexchange.org/pages/larticle.asp?type=FAQ ------------------------------------------------------ Other Internet Software Marketing Sites: World of Windows Networking: http://www.windowsnetworking.com Leading Network Software Directory: http://www.serverfiles.com No.1 ISA Server Resource Site: http://www.isaserver.org Windows Security Resource Site: http://www.windowsecurity.com/ Network Security Library: http://www.secinf.net/ Windows 2000/NT Fax Solutions: http://www.ntfaxfaq.com ------------------------------------------------------ You are currently subscribed to this MSEXchange.org Discussion List as: rickb@xxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe visit http://www.webelists.com/cgi/lyris.pl?enter=exchangelist Report abuse to listadmin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx ------------------------------------------------------ List Archives: http://www.webelists.com/cgi/lyris.pl?enter=exchangelist Exchange Newsletters: http://www.msexchange.org/pages/newsletter.asp Exchange FAQ: http://www.msexchange.org/pages/larticle.asp?type=FAQ ------------------------------------------------------ Other Internet Software Marketing Sites: World of Windows Networking: http://www.windowsnetworking.com Leading Network Software Directory: http://www.serverfiles.com No.1 ISA Server Resource Site: http://www.isaserver.org Windows Security Resource Site: http://www.windowsecurity.com/ Network Security Library: http://www.secinf.net/ Windows 2000/NT Fax Solutions: http://www.ntfaxfaq.com ------------------------------------------------------ You are currently subscribed to this MSEXchange.org Discussion List as: steve.alcock@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe visit http://www.webelists.com/cgi/lyris.pl?enter=exchangelist Report abuse to listadmin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx
