Just a few quick tips for those who want a quick result when preparing and installing for Exchange 2010 Beta. The past few days I've installed this beta too many times not to be wondering how to speed things up. So I wound up with two batch files. No unattend file (yet?) though. I already … Continue reading "Installing Exchange 2010 Beta: Quick Preparation"

Exchange 2010 Beta: A First Impression
A few days ago the beta of Exchange Server 2010 has been released. As Exchange has always been of special interest of me, I jumped at the opportunity to install it and check it out. So will 2010 be the year we will make better contact with our own mail? (for those sci-fi geeks out … Continue reading "Exchange 2010 Beta: A First Impression"

Windows Deployment Services: A Real Ghostbuster Part 1
I'm currently working on a relatively large project and it's one of the most complex migrations I have ever been part in. That is one of the reasons this blog has been a bit neglected. At the moment, most of my work on Active Directory and such only has to be fine tuned and that … Continue reading "Windows Deployment Services: A Real Ghostbuster Part 1"

Exchange 14: Expectations and wishes *update*
So at Tech-Ed 2008 EMEA IT Pro, I heard very little about the next version of my favorite groupware solution: Exchange 14. Also searching the net, didn't come up with a lot of results. But that is probably because there is still a non-disclosure agreement in place on those who already know more. Grrrrr. On … Continue reading "Exchange 14: Expectations and wishes *update*"
Tech-Ed: Review of Day 5
The last day of Tech-Ed… Ilse van Criekinge started with certificates and Exchange in "UCN315 – Certificates and Exchange 2007: Best Practices and Lessons".

As Exchange Server 2007 relies more on encrypted … Continue reading "Tech-Ed: Review of Day 5"
Tech-Ed: Review of Day 4 (part2)
After really waking up, I joined "UNC302 Coexistence and Migration with Exchange Online". It was an insightful session: a lot of customers can benefit from this choice. Probably midsize and smaller companies who have to migrate from a non-Microsoft groupware platform, will be interested in Exchange Online. I was pleased, that also the things that … Continue reading "Tech-Ed: Review of Day 4 (part2)"
Tech-Ed: Review of Day 4 (part1)
Well, oversleeping is not a good thing. Also checking the starting time of a session is also a good thing to do… So, unfortunately I missed "UNC03-IS Q&A: Exchange Server 2007 Continuous Replication Deep Dive". Nice to know about log shipping, inspection and replay for high availability options. I already skipped "UNC306 High Availability in … Continue reading "Tech-Ed: Review of Day 4 (part1)"
