Running Mail Flow Central without direct connection?

Do we have a possibility to run Mail Flow Central (Version 1.4.0 (103)) without direct connection to the devices?
I mean: We have a local copy of (all) the logfiles, but we cannot connect directly from our local installation of MFC to the devices.
How can we "import" this logfiles on our local installation of MFC?

Thank you.
I found the directory:
MailFlowCentral\Mail Flow Central\mailFC\mgaLogs\incomingI tried the following steps:
a) I copy some files from the offline-log-directory "mail_logs" looking like [email protected]
b) I stopped and started the service "Mail Flow Central"
-> No luck: There is currently no data in the Mail Flow Central database.
c) I renamed the above files to [email protected] and repeated b).
-> No luck: There is currently no data in the Mail Flow Central database.
d) I moved the above files to the manually created \1\ and repeated b).
-> No luck: There is currently no data in the Mail Flow Central database.
e) I renamed back the above files to [email protected] still in \1\ and repeated b).
-> No luck: There is currently no data in the Mail Flow Central database.
Could you please have a look what I need else for my installed MFC-version 1.4.0-103?
In the meantime, I have added a "dummy-host" with the IP "localhost" and the logname "mail*".
Seconds after I put some of the above files (with or without the extension .001.r) the files are processed and moved to MailFlowCentral\Mail Flow Central\mailFC\mgaLogs\archive\1
Unfortunately, the results remain the same: There is currently no data in the Mail Flow Central database.
But in the host-section I found this error:Mon, 21 Apr 2008 18:10:54 +0100 Failed Unsuccessful import. Error while importing file. Import failed, an error occurred with the downloaded log file: '[Errno 13] Permission denied: '.\\mgaLogs\\incoming\\1\\[email protected]''
What kind of permission should I set (I'm trying it actually on my WinXP without any permission set on this MFC-Directories..)

AsyncOS with mail flow central

Hi gUrus,
What version of Asyncos that has a mail flow central.
any idea?

capt winters

With version 6 you can do on-box tracking and reporting. You can also use a M-machine to do centralized tracking and reporting. With other versions (4/5) you can allready use the windows mail flow central.

Mail Flow Central questions

I was wondering if anyone can give me the official stance on if MFC is still supported or not. An IronPort engineer that I've been working with tells me that it's not supported anymore, but I just went through IronPort training for the C-series and the instructor tells me that it is supported through next year or so. When I check the knowledge base I see references to check the product page for information about MFC, but nothing is listed. I can't seem to find any documentation or software downloads.

Here is info from the Support Portal.
Click on "Announcements & Policies" on the left panel, then "IronPort Systems Product Discontinuance Policy" at the top of the page.
At the bottom, it mentions this:
+++
Software Support
IronPort AsyncOS and Mail Flow Central software releases are supported for up to eighteen (18) months from the First Customer Shipment Date (FCS), or two (2) subsequent major releases of such software, whichever occurs first. At such time, the software reaches EOL. Major releases of the software are designated as an increment in the first number in a release designation (i.e. 4.y.z to 5.y.z).
At EOL, Engineering, Customer Support and the IronPort Threat Operations Center no longer provide support for the software release. Thus, update releases (e.g. service, maintenance, and patches) are no longer created for the software release and "signatures," "rules," or similar data services may not be compatible with discontinued versions of the software. To receive software support and updates, customers are required to upgrade to a supported version of the software.

Then, if you click on "IronPort AsyncOS for Email" at the very bottom. It mentions this at the very bottom:

Cisco IronPort Mail Flow Central

Hello,
We are currently in the process of trying to migrate Mail Flow Central from a windows server 2003 VM to a windows server 2008 VM. I have a few questions regarding this migration. Is their any sort of guide that I can follow? Also, what is the latest software download link for MFC? I already have the database installed (for previous version), but in the install it wants me to reinstall it again? If you can provide help files to ease this migration that would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Alex

Stephan is correct - MFC support ended Jul 2011. There may be an external customer that is willing to answer and provide any pointers for your migration. We, as Cisco, do not have any guides or best practices available for MFC. It would be all customer side work and migration supportability only.

Upgrade Mail Flow Central V1.3 to V1.4

How do I upgrade mail flow central v1.3 to v1.4?

MFC 1.4 is only useful for customers who are experiencing capacity issues with 1.3.
There are no new features or reports. MFC 1.4 takes advantage of some changes to the underlying MFC infrastructure components to scale to a greater number of messages per day. If you are not having capacity issues, upgrading to MFC 1.4 provides no value.

Running Oracle 10g Express without Web connection.

Hello Oracle Users/Friends
I previously used Oracle 8i on an older machine running Windows 98. No web connections required to run database. Have just installed Oracle 10g Express Edition on newer machine running XP Pro. Suddenly Web connections required for database Homepage etc. All cool. But, I just want to start database without requiring Web connections to practise plsql stuff.
It is probably an easy configuration somewhere, but could someone just explain how to start/run database without Web connection?
I also want to run the database from laptop while travelling on train and hence want to navigate through all features of Oracle 10g without web connection.
I guess a further question is simply what is the advantage of the database connecting to Web for someone like myself who is just wanting to run all queries etc locally on the base PC?
Would appreciate advice on this matter.
With thanks
John

Well, when installing XE out of the box, all remote connections from other machines are disallowed by default.
Thus only you can access the management user interface of XE. The GUI is run in a web browser, thus you will need the web connection for yourself on your local machine. This is a very good reason to have the web connection enabled ;).
In order to disallow any web connections (even from your local machine) you can use dbms_xdb.sethttpport('0'); ( http://daust.blogspot.com/2006/01/xe-changing-default-http-port.html ) .

Decommissioning old Win2k3 DC impact on Exchange Server mail flow and client Outlook connection ?

People,
I'm going to decommission one of the three AD Domain Controllers / Global Catalog during the business hours that is used by the Exchange Server 2010 SP3 due to it is still running Win2k3 (Exchange Management Console > Server Configuration >
Client Access | System Settings tab, I can see the three DC/GC as follows DC01-VM, DC02-VM, DC03-VM).
So if one of the DC above in the tab is decommissioned during the business hours, is there any impact or steps that I need to take to avoid any email outage or problem ?
Let me know what is the correct steps if possible.
Thanks,
/* Server Support Specialist */

You may wish to remove the DC that is going to be decommissioned from the GCs available for use by Exchange.
In any event that that is the GC that is being used by Exchange during the course of decommission, you will encounter issues.

Hi Vincez,
How do I do that on Exchange Server 2010 SP3 ?
My understanding is that the DC/GC is detected and used by Exchange when it is on the same AD Site.

Mail Flow Central - Slowness and database issues

Hello,
My MFC database is about 220 gig, keeping 45 days of data. It is running on a large system (Quad XEON Processor HP ML 570, with 6 Spindals for the data drive) and it still gets so busy it shuts down MySql.
Support keeps telling me to index the tables, but they are indexed, and I keep getting errors.
Is anyone else having issues?
Anybody with a database this size or larger?
Thanks,
Mike

From our experience the performance issues with MFC are around the purge process.
Our ugly work around was to set the purge date to 3 months our and to start over with a clean database every 2 months or so. Effective the purge never happens, we wipe and recreate. Like I said it is an ugly kludge. Eight weeks of data ends up being about a 512GB size database in our environment.
Long-term I think MFC has to go to a rolling partitioned table solution, based on date. So then the purge process can be done more efficiently at the partition level.

Can Tour de Flex run without internet connection

Hi
I have installed TourDeFlex.air, but unfortunately it requires internet connection to browse the components.
Do you know if it is possible to run Tour de Flex without internet connection?

From an earlier post by Nicolas Mertens:
"here's what I got from Customer Services about this problem:
[Help] files are located in the following location:
C:/Program Files/Common Files/Adobe/Help/en_us/InDesign/6.0. Also
from that location, you can launch the file 'index.html' and this
should direct you to *the online help that you would access through
the program itself.*"
I found that the files are not at that location, but at C:/Program
Files/Common Files/Adobe/Help/en_GB/InDesign/6.0 (this is in Windows
Vista, by the way). "
Yours would presumably be at [the German equivalent of
..]/de-DE/InDesign6.0, or whatever your locale is (AT, CH...)

Is Mail Flow Center running under Windows 2008 ?

Is the Ironport MFC working with MS Windows Server 2008 ?
I have to order a new server for our MFC - in our company Windows 2003 is not longer supported.
Thanks !

Wow, no longer supporting Server 2003? Your organization moves fast compared to mine.
On your topic, I wanted to hear what the official answer is on this so wanted to post a reply. I've been told that IronPort is trying to discontinue support for Mail Flow Central. I always liked it but have since moved over to a M-series box. The one thing that the M-series box can't do that Mail Flow Central could is provide a daily e-mailed report based on IP. I used that daily with Mail Flow Central. Now I have to generate the report manually and export the data, still works but takes me 20 seconds every day.
Long live the nation!

Mail flow - download where?

Hi gurus, i know that this is already eol..correct me if im wrong..but i have my c10 with a problem on mailflow. im going to reinstall it using version 1.4.
any idea where i can download it? or any tips maybe.
thank you.
kira

HI Kira,
To me it's not clear what your question is. Please make it some more clear.
If I understand you right you have an old C10 with a problem in it's mail flow.
Or.... are you trying to re-use a C10 for Mail Flow Central (MFC)? And are you seeking the MFC software? If this last is the case, to things:
1) You loose your warranty and support on the C10 if you install an other OS on it. (Besides the fact that Ironport appliances do not have a video card installed, which is needed for most OS installations).
2) You can get your MFC software via your sales contact.
If I totally misunderstood you, please clarify your question.
Best Regards,
Steven

What is the direct connect method for transfering photos from my macbook pro to my iphone without using iTunes syncronization? (iow: a simple photo copy from mac to iphone?)

I feel like I should know the answer to this. I can't believe it is a hard question.
What is the direct connect method for transfering photos from my macbook pro to my iphone without using iTunes syncronization? (iow: a simple photo copy from mac to iphone?)
Easy? Right?
Just plug my iphone in to a mac and copy a photo from the mac to my iphone.
I don't have internet access - I can't email it, or mobileme it, or dropbox it.

iTunes. Other than that there is no direct method. However, do try the iPhone forums.

How big is your library? I would recommend the following troubleshooting steps:
- Backup your library. Always a good idea before messing with things.
- Create a new library.   Refer to this article for details: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1589. This won't delete your old library, you're just creating a new empty one. Also refer to this article to get back to your old library later.
- Add a few albums into this new library. Not everything, just a small sampling, as a test.
- Activate Match on this new library. You shouldn't have to re-pay, it should just say "Add Computer" or similar.
- At this point, Match should run again. With just a few albums it should complete in just a few minutes.
If iTunes doesn't crash at this point, then likely there's something about your original library that Match doesn't like - what that is I don't know, but at least you'll know it's not your PC.   If iTunes still crashes, then if could be a number of other things, but probably not your library.   My next suggestion (if you haven't already done this) is to uninstall / reinstall iTunes.   If that doesn't work, then my next ideas you won't like.

Direct connection between 2 clients without any configuration!

I wan to make a system act like hamachi or logmein (websever & clients).
I have a webserver on the internet and two client from different networks connected to this webserver, now i want to make directly connection between these clients without any configuration on router. I think it is possible because all infomation about clients network could be got from http request which they send to server. But i don't know what exact fields in the header of http request that i need and how to set them to create connection between clients. I need some ideas about this issue.

I know, so if you want to use a remote control tool such as: VNC, remote desktop you must config on router or server. But even if you had a proxy(permit port 80) when you type www.sun.com you will get data from it, this data was sent from Sun to your proxy and in some way the data was return to your browser. So i think if we have enough information(it come from the webserver) we could init a connection between 2 client. An example of this is Hamachi.
At first 2 hamachi clients connect to a server of hamachi, when they have their id, a tunnel between 2 clients was established without any configuration on proxy(certainly that server did not deny port of hamachi). From now 2 clients can exchange data not through the server. The same in logmein, you can remote desktop any where with zero configuration, but the speed is guarantee because they contact to server for query information, but the data was transmited directly. Sorry if i make mistake.It doesn't work the way you think.
There is a proxy or you have to have one side listening with a ServerSocket and have ports opened as needed. You can't create a Socket connection on server A between clients B and C and then pass it off to clients B and C and magically they just talk to each other.
It does not work that way. It is impossible to do it that way.
