Autoriser le SMTP anonyme sous Exchange 2010

Par défaut Exchange 2007 & 2010 ne permettent pas l’émission de mail via SMTP de façon anonyme. Et heureusement car ceci permettrait de disposer d’un relais ouvert !

Partition alignment and NTFS Allocation unit size

Below is a table of recommendations for use with Exchange.

Best practice: 64 KB for both .edb and log file volumes.

Description	Recommended Value
Storage Track Boundary	64K or greater. (1MB recommended)
NTFS allocation unit/cluster size	64KB (DB and Log Drives)
RAID Stripe size	256KB or greater. Check with your storage vendor for best practices

Transitioning Client Access to Exchange Server 2010

By now most of you have heard about the release of Exchange 2010. Those of you that are upgrading from Exchange 2003, Exchange 2007 or a mixture of the two, are probably curious about the client access upgrade strategy. To satisfy your curiosity, we are releasing a series of blog articles on the subject. The first in this series provides a summary of the steps that are required to introduce Exchange 2010 within your environment from a client access perspective. More detailed information about the upgrade process is discussed in TechNet and within the Deployment Assistant. The second and third parts in this series will discuss the end user experience for OWA and ActiveSync, respectively. Look for those in upcoming weeks.

Many of you have been asking how you can transition your existing Exchange environment to Exchange 2010 from a client access perspective. For most of you, this will also mean coexisting with legacy Exchange and Exchange 2010 for a period of time. This post will hopefully answer these questions by breaking down your transition into two scenarios:

1. Transitioning an Exchange 2003 environment to Exchange 2010.
2. Transitioning an Exchange 2007 (that may or may not contain Exchange 2003 mailbox servers) environment to Exchange 2010.

The underlying goal here is to move your primary namespace, mail.contoso.com and autodiscover.contoso.com, over to Exchange 2010 and introduce a new namespace for legacy access, legacy.contoso.com and associate it with your legacy Exchange client access infrastructure. Users will continue to use mail.contoso.com as their access point into the organization for messaging services. While Exchange 2003/2007 end users will see the legacy.contoso.com namespace in their browser address bar, ActiveSync settings, and Test Auto-Configuration output within Outlook, they only need to use the mail.contoso.com namespace as their primary entry point into the organization; in addition, IT should continue directing customers to utilize the mail.contoso.com namespace for all external connectivity mechanisms

Exchange 2010 Antivirus Recommendations

If you are deploying file-level scanners on Exchange 2010 servers, make sure that the appropriate exclusions, such as directory exclusions, process exclusions, and file name extension exclusions, are in place for both scheduled and real-time scanning. This section describes directory exclusions, process exclusions, and file name extension exclusions for each server or server role.

Directory Exclusions

You must exclude specific directories for each Exchange server or server role on which you run a file-level antivirus scanner. This section describes the directories that you should exclude from file-level scanning for each server or server role.

Mailbox server role

· Exchange databases, checkpoint files, and log files across all storage groups. By default, these are located in sub-folders under the %Program Files%\Microsoft\Exchange Server\v14\Mailbox folder. You can obtain the directory location by running the following commands in the Exchange Management Shell:

· To determine the location of a mailbox database and log folders, run the following command: Get-MailboxDatabase -server | fl *path*

· To determine the location of a public folder database, run the following command: Get-PublicFolderDatabase -server | fl *path*

· Database content indexes. By default, these are located in mailbox database sub-folders under the %Program Files%\Microsoft\Exchange Server\v14\Mailbox folder.

· General log files, such as message tracking log files. These files are located in subfolders under the %Program Files%\Microsoft\Exchange Server\v14\TransportRoles\Logs folder and %Program Files%\Microsoft\Exchange Server\v14\Logging folder. To determine the log paths being used, run the following command in the Exchange Management Shell: Get-MailboxServer | fl *path*

· The Offline Address Book files that are located in subfolders under the %Program Files%\Microsoft\Exchange Server\v14\ExchangeOAB folder

· IIS system files in the %SystemRoot%\System32\Inetsrv folder

· The temporary folder that is used with offline maintenance utilities, such as Eseutil.exe. By default, this folder is the location where the .exe file is run from. However, you can configure where you perform the operation from when you run the utility.

· The temporary folders that are used to perform conversions:

· Content conversions are performed in the server’s TMP folder.

· OLE conversions are performed in %Program Files%\Microsoft\Exchange Server\v14\Working\OleConvertor folder.

· The Mailbox database temporary folder: %Program Files%\Microsoft\Exchange Server\v14\Mailbox\MDBTEMP

· Any Exchange-aware antivirus program folders

DAG Member Mailbox server

All the items listed in the Mailbox server role list, and the following:

· The file share witness. This is located on another server in the environment, typically a Hub transport server.

Hub Transport server role

· General log files, for example, message tracking. These files are located in subfolders under the %Program Files%\Microsoft\Exchange Server\v14\TransportRoles\Logs folder. To determine the log paths being used, run the following command in the Exchange Management Shell: Get-TransportServer | fl *logpath*,*tracingpath*

· The message folders that are located under the %Program Files%\Microsoft\Exchange Server\v14\TransportRoles folder. To determine the paths being used, run the following command in the Exchange Management Shell: Get-TransportServer | fl *dir*path*

· The transport server role queue database, checkpoint, and log files that are located in the %Program Files%\Microsoft\Exchange Server\v14\TransportRoles\Data\Queue folder.

· The transport server role Sender Reputation database, checkpoint, and log files that are located in the %Program Files%\Microsoft\Exchange Server\v14\TransportRoles\Data\SenderReputation folder

Edge Transport server role

· The Active Directory Application Mode (ADAM) database and log files that are located in the %Program Files%\Microsoft\Exchange Server\v14\TransportRoles\Data\Adam folder.

· General log files, for example message tracking. These files are located in subfolders under the %Program Files%\Microsoft\Exchange Server\v14\TransportRoles\Logs folder. To determine the log paths being used, run the following command in the Exchange Management Shell: Get-TransportServer | fl *logpath*,*tracingpath*

· The message folders that are located under the %Program Files%\Microsoft\Exchange Server\v14\TransportRoles folder. To determine the log paths being used, run the following command in the Exchange Management Shell: Get-TransportServer | fl *dir*path*
