Exchange 2010 logon statistics with powershell

I am trying to get some logon statistics from a Exchange server 2010, I am using the following command,
Get-MailboxServer | Get-LogonStatistics | Select UserName,ClientVersion,LastAccessTime,ServerName, but it returns this, 3587.0.32963.1, as a version
number.
I have read that it is af bug in Exchange 2010. Does anyone have a workaround?

Right, I guess along with IP address Outlook doesn't send version information either back via Get-LogonStatistics...
The client IP address for an Outlook 2010 client is not logged in Exchange when you use the Get-LogonStatistics command -

However you can get Version information from RPC Client Access Logs located in below folder...

Exchange 2010 - Report NDRs with powershell

Hi all,
I would like to analyze all internal NDRs within my exchange environment. For example we have systems which are hard coded with email addresses of internal recipients and people leave the business and their mailbox and associated email address will be removed
from exchange but not from a third party system that has a list of addresses to send notifications out to or home grown scripts. In order to keep the email pipeline clean and follow best practices I would like to catch these NDRs and remove them from the relevant
systems.
Is there anyway I can do this with powershell, my environment Exchange 2010 SP2 and all the roles are on a single server.

Hi Niko,
I have just performed the following test:
sent an email to an internal recipient were the address does not exist, example
[email protected]
The NDR does not come from [email protected]
The headers for the NDR I got as listed below:
MIME-Version: 1.0
From: Microsoft Outlook
<[email protected]>
To: <[email protected]>

Real-world experience with Exchange 2010 SP3 RU5+ and Powershell 4?

The support-ability matrix for Exchange (http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff728623(v=exchg.150).aspx) says Exchange
2010 SP3 RU5+ and Powershell 4 are compatible. But, there is very little actual discussion about how well that works.
I use Powershell extensively for mission critical and somewhat complex processes, with Exchange 2010 on 2008 R2 and AD access/reads/updates.
Can I get a summary of the caveats and benefits from someone who has actually done this in a
real-world/production scenario (more than one server, managing from a separate non-Exchange server), and who has scripting experience with this configuration?
Also, how has this affected EMC operations?
As always thank you in advance!

I believe the matrix states that its supported to install Exchange into an environment where __ version of WMF is present. Exchange 2010, launched from a Win 2012 server, reports version 2.0 when you call $host. For example, calling the ActiveDirectory
module from EMS on an Win 2012 server (ps 3.0) fails.
I'll double check the extent of this scenario and get back to you.

Exchange 2010 SP2 to SP3 Powershell script execution policies

Hi,
I have broken Labs when installing service packs on exchange 2010 servers because the powershell execution policies have been incorrectly configured. Once the WMI service has been stopped, the scripts within the SP haven't been able to start it up again.
I can't find any info on Powershell script execution policies in relation to the SP3 for 2010 prerequisites. Does anyone know what they should be set at? And why haven't these been at the top of the list of prerequisites for installations of service packs
for exchange?

ISA 2006 publish Exchange 2010 Outlook Anywhere with Kerberos Constrained Delegation

Hi,
I have two Exchange 2010 Sp1 CAS with Windows Network Loadbalancing. I set up an alternate Serviceaccount and mapped the http,ExchangeMDB,PRF and ExchangeAB SPNs.
Then i published the Exchange Services via ISA 2006. OWA is working using Internet -> via NTLM -> ISA(webmail.domain.com) -> via KCD -> CAS-Array(ex2010.domain.com)
I tried the same with Outlook Anywhere (RPC over HTTP) without success.
Authentication to the ISA via NTLM works fine, but i think the isa server cannot delegate the Credentials successfully to the CAS-Server.
The ISA Log looks like:
Allowed Connection ISA 24.11.2011 15:50:40
Log type: Web Proxy (Reverse)
Status: 403 Forbidden
Rule: Exchange 2010 RPC
Source: Internal (172.16.251.33)
Destination: (172.18.10.182:443)
Request: RPC_OUT_DATA
http://webmail.domain.com/rpc/rpcproxy.dll?ex2010.domain.com:6001
Filter information: Req ID: 108b89d8; Compression: client=No, server=No, compress rate=0% decompress rate=0%
Protocol: https
So i always get a 403 Forbidden from the CAS.
I the IIS logfile from the cas server i see this entry:
2011-11-24 15:51:37 172.18.10.182 RPC_OUT_DATA /rpc/rpcproxy.dll ex2010.domain.com:6001 443 - <ISA IP> MSRPC 401 1 2148074254 203
I use the same Listener for OWA and Outlook Anywhere. Authentication Methods are Basic and Integrated. I forward the request to a webfarm which exists of the two physical CAS. Internal Site Name is set to the NLB name ex2010.domain.com, SPN is set to http/ex2010.domain.com
Thanks for your support

Hi, i ran into the same Problem.
the steps above solved mine too (Creating a custom AppPool which runs under LocalSystem).
I wonder why they included only the Script: convertoabtovdir.ps1
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/Forefrontedgegeneral/thread/dc24ccd3-378a-47cc-bbbf-48236f8fe5b0
Ist this a supported configuration (changing AppPool of RPC)?

ISA 2006 publish Exchange 2010 Outlook Anywhere with KCD/NTLM and IPSEC - Problem

Hi
I have setup ISA 2006 to publish Exchange 2010 Outlook Anywhere with Kerberos Constrained Delegation and IPSEC.
The clients have an IPSEC policy pushed to them via GPO. The clients are windows 7 laptops and the ISA server is server 2003, so the IPSEC connection is IKE not AuthIP.
However, it seems that the connection will work for a while, then all of a sudden stop working with zero trace of why. I cant get the Oakley log to work and I cant see any traffic on the ISA.
I am wondering if I need to publish the CRL's externally? Currently we don't, and the Outlook Anywhere uses private certificates (as the whole point of IPSEC is to validate the internal certificate, there is no point in using
public certificates).
I have tried using the StrongCRLCheck=0 registry key in the IPsec Policy Agent on the windows 7 machine but it doesn't seem to make a difference.
Any advice would be appreciated.
Steven

Hi,
Firstly, have you received any related error messages in ISA server or on the clients' side? Besides, as you mentioned IPsec, did you have a VPN connection?
In addition,
While ISA 2006 only includes a Client Access Web Publishing Wizard for both Exchange 2003 and Exchange 2007. Which Exchange version you have chosen when publishing Exchange 2010?
Please also make sure that you have selected the
External interface for the web listener to listen on.
Besides, the link below would be helpful to you:
OWA publishing using Kerberos Constrained Delegation

GP logon script with PowerShell

We have a Windows Server 2012 domain and would like to create a GP logon script with PowerShell.

Internal outlook client connectivity in exchange 2010 when coexist with exchange 2013

Hi all ,
on my side i would like to clarify few queries.
Say for instance i am coexisting exchange 2010 with exchange 2013 .Unfortunately if all of my exchange 2013 servers goes down .
Q1 .On that time will the internal outlook users having their mailboxes on exchange 2010 can be able to connect mailboxes without any issues ? In case if they face any issues what kind of issues will they be? Because why i am asking is we should have pointed
the autodiscover service to exchange 2013 during coexistence.
When an user closes and reopens the outlook after whole exchange 2013 environment failure ,outlook will first query the autodiscover service for the profile changes to get it updated on users outlook profile.In such case autodiscover service will not be
reachable and i wanted to know will that affects the internal client connectivity for outlook users having their mailboxes on exchange 2010.
Q2. Apart from outlook internal users connectivity ,what kind of exchange services(i.e owa,active sync,pop,external OA and imap) will get affected when whole exchange 2013 environment goes down during coexistence ?
I have read the below mentioned statement on this awesome blog but still i wanted to clarify with you all on my scenario.
http://blogs.technet.com/b/exchange/archive/2014/03/12/client-connectivity-in-an-exchange-2013-coexistence-environment.aspx<o:p></o:p>
Internal Outlook Connectivity
For internal Outlook clients using RPC/TCP connectivity whose mailboxes exist on Exchange 2010, they will still connect to the Exchange 2010 RPC Client Access array endpoint.
For internal Outlook clients using RPC/TCP connectivity whose mailboxes exist on Exchange 2007, they will still connect directly to the Exchange 2007 Mailbox server instance hosting the mailbox.
Please share me your suggestions and that would help me a lot .
Regards
S.Nithyanandham

Hi Winnie Liang ,
Thanks a lot for your reply.
Scenario 1 : for internal outlook connectivity
We have below settings for exchange 2010 autodiscover.
mail.domain.com - will be the namespace for internal autodiscover URI for all the exchange 2010 cas serves
We are going to have below settings for exchange 2013 autodiscover.
mail.domain.com - will be the namespace for internal autodiscover URI for all the exchange 2013 cas serves
During coexistence mail.domain.com will be pointed to exchange 2013 cas servers . I mean to say if we try to resolve the mail.domain.com it will get resolved in to the exchange 2013 cas servers.
So on such case if anything happened wrong to the new environment or else if entire environment goes down .Do we face any issues while outlook users connect to existing mailboxes in exchange 2010 ?
Because why i am asking is ,on the below mentioned article i have read all the autodiscover request will go via exchange 2013 cas servers during coexistence.That means all the existing mailboxes in exchange 2010 will also have to query exchange 2013 cas
servers for autodiscover request.During the whole exchange 2013 environemnt failure whenever the user tries to close and open outlook .Outlook will first queries the autodiscover service for any changes happened on that particular mailbox and it will try to
get it updated on user profile.
http://blogs.technet.com/b/exchange/archive/2014/03/12/client-connectivity-in-an-exchange-2013-coexistence-environment.aspx
Would it be possible to make the exchange 2010 mailbox users to query only the scp points which belongs to the exchange 2010 cas servers for autodiscover request ?
Scenario 2: For exchange services
mail.domain.com - will be the namespace for all the exchange 2010 services (i.e owa,activesync,external outlook anywhere,pop,imap)
mail.domain.com - will be the namespace for all the exchange 2013 services (i.e owa,activesync,external outlook anywhere,pop,imap)
What about the above services will it get affected during whole exchange 2013 environment failure ?
Note : We are not facing this issue , i hope everything goes well in my environment while doing coexistence i am just asking this question on my own interest?
Regards
S.Nithyanandham
Thanks S.Nithyanandham

Exchange 2010 SP3 OWA with certificate based authentication

Hi,
I have a bizarre problem in my customer’s environment. Maybe someone has an idea.
Exchange 2010 with SP3, latest cumulative Update installed.
The problem I’m having is that when I enable Certificate based authentication (require client certificate option in IIS) on OWA and ECP virtual directories in conjunction with forms based authentication (this is the requirement – the user
must have a client certificate and type in username and password to log in to OWA), the result is that after the user selects the certificate he wants to use, he is logged into OWA automatically, but cannot use the website, because it’s being constantly automatically
refreshed (or redirected to itself or something like that). The behavior occurs with all users, with any browser. If client certificate is on required, forms based authentication works just fine. If I switch to “Basic Authentication” and enable client certificate
requirement, then OWA act’s as it should be – so no problems. The problem only occurs when authentication type is forms based and client certificates are required.
I have tried the exact same settings (as far as I can tell) on one other production server and one test server, and encountered no such problems.
Anyone – any ideas?

Hi McWax,
According to your description and test, I understand that all accounts cannot login OWA when select require client certificate.
Is there any error message when open OWA or login? For example, return error ”HTTP error: 403 - Forbidden”. Please post relative error for further troubleshooting.
I want to confirm which authentication methods are used for OWA, Integrated Windows authentication or Digest authentication? More details about it, for your reference:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb430796(v=exchg.141).aspx
If you select another authentication method, please check whether Client Certificate Mapping Authentication services is installed, and also enabled in IIS, please refer to:
http://www.iis.net/configreference/system.webserver/security/authentication/clientcertificatemappingauthentication
To prevent firewall factor, please try to sign in OWA at CAS server. Besides, I find a FAQ about certificate:

Exchange 2010 health-checks with encryption and ntlm auth

Hi everybody,
I will be forced to implement extended health-ckecks for Exchange 2010 CAS Servers. So the cisco design guide does not help
Exchange2010 CAS Service needs ntlm auth for many services by default. http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb331973.aspx
Now with SP1 also for pop3 and imap4. I have not found any option to use ntlm by default.
The next problem is encryption.
Health-checks with encryption are not integrated in cisco ace 4710 by default.
As an alternative to try a scripted health-check with tcl script is an option but needs more investigation and is timeconsuming.
I watched for other vendors solution, they use e.g. external imported shell scripts with curl (curl -s --ntlm -k -X POST ...) to do a health-check with ntlm. That would be fine at the moment to beat the requirement of extendet health-checks.
But maybe it is only ntlm verion 1, I do not know what happens if it comes to ntlm version 2.
Kerberos authentication is a much bigger problem, but at the moment not a requirement.
Does anybody has some hints or also a tcl script for exchange health-checks ?
Best Regards
Alois

IOS 4.3.1 + Exchange 2010 "was" fine with the mailbox on Ex2007 server

Hi,
i had used my iphone with ios 4.3.1 and active sync.
The mailbox was hosted on the old exchange 2007 server.
A new exchange 2010 server was running the last 4 weeks and the iphone was connection with activesync against the new exchange 2010 through local wlan and over internet.
After i moved my profile to the new server i can´t connect anymore to the new server!
Any idea what happend?

It was working fine the last weeks with my mail account sitting on exchange 2007.
Today i moved several mailboxes from exchange 2007 to 2010 SP1.
I have some domain accounts that are created new and had their mailbox created on the exchange 2010 sp1 system.
With these accounts i can connect and retrieve mails.
But with my account (moved from 2007 to 2010) i can´t.
All i get is a blank mailbox on my iphone.
I even removed the mail account from my iphone and recreated the account.
But it won´t retrieve mails.
I refresh the offline addressbook at the exchange 2010 but nothing will help.

Exchange 2010 CAS array with Exchange 2013 Mailbox Servers

Here is our current scenario,
Exchange 2007
2 - Hub Transport Servers
2 - CAS servers (cluster NLB)
2 - Mailbox servers (clustered)
Exchange 2010
2 - Huib Transport Servers
3 - CAS servers (array NLB)
2 - Mailbox servers (1 DAG)
We have not migrated any users to the Exchange 2010 environment yet. We're thinking that at this point we would rather go from 2007 to 2013. Does the 2013 mailbox server work with a 2010 CAS array?

Hi,
As far as I know, CAS array doesn' t exist in Exchange 2013. And OWA and other requests can be proxyed and redirected from Exchange 2013 to Exchange 2010.
For more information, you can refer to the following article:

EXCHANGE 2010 - Edge server with forefront FULL OF SPAM

Hi there.
We have recieved on Exchange 2010 EDGE server a lot of spam 200k messages in queue.
We have stoped inboud SMTP traffic on firewall to stop the attack.
Any suggestion how to empty the queue? I've heard there is a way to rename the "Exchange queue folder" but forget the procedure.
How to stop the attacker?
bostjanc

Hi There,
Use the KB below to find the Queue DB, then stop the service listed In the KB, rename the old DB and create a new one with the same name, than start the Service.

Prepare Exchange 2010 Test Environment with Hyper V

Hi
We are preparing a test environment to check the migration from Exchange 2010 to 2013 and to get familiarized with 2013. Created the VMs of existing Domain Controllers using D2V tool, looking for suggestion on how to prepare the Exchange 2010 servers
( 2 X MB servers in 1 DAG and 2 X Hub/CAS servers in WNLB) in VM environment - either by creating VMs of existing physical servers using D2V without DB storage LUNs (Dial tone DBs) or prepare the Exchange 2010 servers from DCs created in test lab.
Thanks in advance

There's got to be a question in here somewhere. How about a guide to setting up Exchange 2010 that you can then use for a test environment:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff709381(v=EXCHG.141).aspx
Now, if you are asking how to configure your test environment to mimic production, you should probably get directory exports of your users, groups, and contacts (rather than trying to remove a production domain controller to use as the initial domain controller
in your test environment), since it allows you to connect between the two environments without jumping through huge numbers of hoops - it also allows you to send email between them, which can be useful when testing external connectors.
