Encontrar buzones ocultos en Exchange 2003
¿Cual es la forma rápida de encontrar todos los buzones ocultos que tenemos en nuestro sistema?
Esta pregunta suele hacerse de vez en cuando en los grupos de noticias y sobre todo por administradores que "vienen" del antiguo Exchange 5.5.
Ahora con Exchange 2003; al estar integrado en el directorio activo, tendremos que usar la opción de búsqueda de éste.
Los buzones ocultos se identifican por el atributo msExchHideFromAddressLists cuando tiene el valor TRUE. Todo lo que tenemos que hacer es una búsqueda LDAP específica contra nuestro directorio activo para buscar los usuarios que tengan ese valor establecido.
1- Arrancamos la herramienta “Usuarios y equipos del Directorio Activo”.
2- Vamos al nombre de nuestro dominio y con el botón derecho pinchamos en Buscar.
3- En la ventana de búsqueda, escogemos Búsqueda personalizada.
4- Pinchar en la pestaña Opciones Avanzadas.
5- Pegar la siguiente consulta LDAP y dar en el botón Buscar ahora.
(&(objectclass=user)(msExchHideFromAddressLists=TRUE))
Nota: En la opción objectclass= podremos cambiar el ámbito de búsqueda a group si nos interesa tener un listado de los grupos ocultos, etc.
Con esto conseguiremos que se muestre la lista de buzones ocultos ó grupos.
No podemos olvidar que en la lista de buzones, aparecerán los buzones de sistema; pero estos no los vamos a tocar ¡! verdad ? ;-)
Un saludo.

E-mail servers are the primary conduit for viruses entering information technology environments. Large quantities of spam can devour server space and network bandwidth through sheer volume. This webcast presents features and techniques that can help the Microsoft Exchange Server environment achieve strong, layered security. The first topic is the Microsoft Exchange Server Best Practices Analyzer. We examine how this tool sets the baseline for the Exchange environment. The Best Practices Analyzer is crucial because ignoring the best practices for Exchange might negate any other practices used to secure Exchange. Next we examine how to secure Exchange, using the server hardening guidance for Exchange, integration with the Microsoft Windows Server 2003 Public Key Infrastructure environment, certificates, digital signatures and client protection.

YA ! tenemos disponible el SP2 para Exchange 2003
Parece que ya llegó la fecha señalada para que podamos descargar e instalar el esperado Service Pack 2 para Exchange 2003.
http://www.microsoft.com/exchange/downloads/2003/default.mspx
La descarga en español directa la teneis en el siguiente enlace.
http://download.microsoft.com/download/E/0/0/E0080B1B-FE8C-40DD-ACDA-099439327593/E3SP2ESP.EXE
Como supongo que ya habreís ido viendo en pasadas noticias, aquí os pongo la documentación en línea que conviene leer.
http://download.microsoft.com/download/f/b/5/fb5c54af-fe5c-48e9-be97-f9e8207325ab/Ex_2003_SP2_RelNotes.htm
Nota: Tened en cuenta que es obligatorio tener actualizados Windows 2003 con el SP1 ó al menos el parche MS05-019 para poder instalarlo correctamente.
También se han visto casos en los que si teneís instalado SQL 2000 con SP4 en el mismo servidor (algo NADA recomendable), tendreís avisos de sobreescritura de ficheros durante la instalación; esto es debido a que algunos archivos comunes del sistema son más actuales en la instalación de SQL SP4 que los que vienen con Exchange 2003 SP2.
Otro punto a considerar es que si queremos utilizar la característica anti-spam SenderID, tendreís que desinstalar el módulo IMFv1 (si está instalado) y solicitar el parche KB905214 al teléfono de soporte de Microsoft (llamada totalmente libre de coste de soporte).
Y por último quiero recordaros que el SP2 NO podrá ser desinstalado, con lo que es muy recomendable el realizar una copia de seguridad completa antes y tras finalizar la instalación.
Saludos.

Herramienta para el diseño de instalaciones de Exchange
Esta noticia lleva algo de tiempo rondando por ahí; pero no he podido opinar sobre este producto hasta ahora. Se trata de una versión de pruebas (Beta) para realizar comprobaciones de capacidad y rendimiento de sistemas; entre ellos servidores de mensajería Exchange.
Actualmente está disponible sólo en inglés, pero se espera que lo acaben traduciendo al castellano.

Fin del soporte de Exchange 5.5. Actualizate !
Aunque espero que "casi" todos los que lean este blog, estén al tanto de esta noticia; nunca viene mal el recordar que para final de este año 2005 finalizará el soporte de Exchange 5.5 tal y como se aprecia en el siguiente enlace.
Política de ciclo de vida del soporte para Exchange Server 5.5
http://www.microsoft.com/spain/servidores/exchange/techinfo/anteriores/lifecycle55.mspx
Y ¿Qué significa esto para mi instalación de Exchange 5.5?
Pues uno de los puntos más importantes es que ya NO habrá mas actualizaciones ni acceso a parches.
Otro punto a tener en cuenta es que Microsoft NO nos ayudará en el caso que tengamos algún problema con nuestro sistema Exchange 5.5, ni podrá suminstrar parches específicos (hotfixes) que pueden ser necesarios en casos concretos.
También es probable que artículos de la base de conocimiento de Microsoft, específicos para Exchange 5.5, vayan siendo retirados.
En fin, que es muy conveniente que vayamos pensando en ACTUALIZAR a una versión más nueva como Exchange 2003 !

Soporte nativo para PDF en Office 12.
Retomando la noticia anterior sobre Office; aquí os pongo un enlace en el que se anuncia que la próxima versión de Office, tendrá soporte nativo para poder leer y escribir archivos PDF. Aumentando el amplio tipos de formato que reconoce.
Native PDF support in Office "12"
http://blogs.msdn.com/brian_jones/archive/2005/10/01/476067.aspx
Personalmente creo que este paso es un acierto por parte de Microsoft, ya que nos facilitará el trabajar con disitintos formatos. Y sobretodo un formato tan extendido como es el de Adobe.

Noticias relacionadas con Office 2003 SP2.
En la semana que he estado en el MVP Summit, se han puesto a disposición de todos, la actualización para el service pack 2 de Office 2003.
Office 2003 con Service Pack 2
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?displaylang=es&FamilyID=57e27a97-2db6-4654-9db6-ec7d5b4dd867
Aquí os pongo un artículo con los cambios que hay que realizar en el registro, para habilitar algunas características del nuevo service pack.
The fixes that are included in Office 2003 Service Pack 2 that require a registry key
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;906600&sd=rss&spid=2520
Yo al intentar usar la actualización automática de http://officeupdate.microsoft.com no terminaba de actualizar, dando un error; por lo que decidí descargar la versión completa y al proceder a actualizar desde ahí, recibí una notificación del sistema que me indicaba que no encontraba algunos archivos de la instalación de Office 2003, solicitandome el CD de instalación. Tras esto, ya pudo finalizar la actualización correctamente.
Saludos.

ADModify.NET 2.1 Released!
http://blogs.technet.com/mfugatt/archive/2005/10/01/411836.aspx
Aqui se presenta la lista de los cambios introducidos:
- Añadida la opción de habilitar/deshabilitar protocolo MAPI por usuario (necesario Exchange 2003 SP2)
- Corregido fallo en variable, para permitir cadenas literales /% y /'
- Corregido código "killmail" para incluir todos los atributos listados en artículo KB 307350 - Añadida opción "Update Email address on General Tab" (Actualizar direcciones de Email en pestaña General) para ambas versiones, línea de comandos e interfaz gráfico (cmd y gui), válido para actualizar el atributo de correo cuando se añade una dirección SMTP primaria
- Añadida posibilidad de búsqueda con comodines cuando se elimina una dirección de correo
- Añadida la opción de "do not remove primary" (no eliminar dirección primaria) cuando se eliminan direcciones de correo
- Añadidas opciones en el interfaz gráfico "GUI" para opciones inhalambricas OMA/UIS/UTD
Algunos de los cambios solicitados no se han añadido en esta versión, ya que eso hubiera requerido postponer la fecha de salida a una fecha posterior. Den por hecho que esas opciones aún estan siendo consideradas para versiones futuras. Cualquier problema o sugerencia con la versión actual 2.1, por favor, escriba a admodify@microsoft.com.

Finalmente, ayer (4 Octubre) llegué a mi casa, tras una larga semana en los USA; visitando a unos amigos ;-)

Arnaud Alcabez, Frank Carius, Ed Crowley, Paul Robichaux, William Lefkovics, Missy Koslosky, Rui J.M. Silva, Daniel Petri, David Shackelford, KC Lemson, Melissa Travers, Gladys Rodriguez, Peter O'Dowd, Ivan Riservato, David Sengupta, Andrew Sword, Martin Tuip, David Wilhoit, y un largo etcetera...
