Re: exchange server and EFA setting

Simplify it. Take out the DAG component (leaving you with two standard Exchange boxes, one in each site with one database each) and I'd also ditch the HA appliances, I can't really see how that'll help. Leave the EFA boxes in each site delivering to the local Exchange server. Exchange will know wher...

Re: exchange server and EFA setting

In short it's not possible with your configuration. I'm assuming Exchange 02 will have a passive copy of the active database on Exchange 01, and Exchange 01 will have a passive copy of the active database on Exchange 02. Users in site 01 will connect to Exchange 01 and users in site 02 will connect ...

Re: exchange server and EFA setting

Getting way beyond EFA here, but yes. Few suggestions/pointers/comments; Exchange 02 will only ever be good as a DR box. It'll never work for production, if the link goes down the databases will dismount. It's not a bad thing, that's what my DR server is for. I'd make 3 MX records, the highest and l...

Re: exchange server and EFA setting

That sounds like you're proposing to use your real domain for the DNS entry. Normally you wouldn't do that, you'd create something completely separate. If "mydomain.com" is your real domain then I'd be very careful about creating local mail.mydomain.com records, unless the server you're ed...

Re: exchange server and EFA setting

Ah, no it's not correct. You can only configure one destination per domain. So you'll need to set mydomain.com to either 172.16.5.72 or 172.16.5.72. This obviously will give you no automatic failover, and if you've if you've got a lot of domains in EFA it's a pain to reconfigure (unless you drop to ...

Re: exchange server and EFA setting

That's a pretty open ended question, but I must admit I had to do a bit of digging to figure out what to do. For the record I've got 2 EFA servers (both virtual, one's a cold standby weekly clone of the first), 2 (virtual) Zen Load Balancers for HA for SMTP/HTTPS, 3 Exchange servers in a DAG (2 onsi...

Re: Using EFA as MX1 and MX2

If you want to load balance your servers then rather than DNS round robin use two MX records but have the same weight for them. Sending servers are supposed to randomise equal weight records. Addendum: To clarify - With equal weight MX records sending SMTP servers will use a random record and if tha...

If he's getting an error other than NXDOMAIN it does, absolutely. Guess that needs clarification.

Re: Issue to reach "view" page

Thanks for all the info. It's a bit odd that your machine's DNS search suffix is different to your ethernet's DNS suffix. if I type https://efaserver/mailscanner/login.php?error=timeout work fine http://efaserver doesnt work That really doesn't make sense. They're both the same hostname. What's the ...

Re: email not arriving

Have you confirmed that Exchange is accepting the email? If your printers etc are sending direct to Exchange then I'd check there first. Enable logging on the receive connector and then check that log. If they're sending to external recipients then you'll either need to use auth or create an anonymo...

Re: Issue to reach "view" page

You're going to have to figure out why your DNS query is failing in the web browser (while oddly ping works). Not really an EFA issue as far as I can tell, this is host name resolution. You've said ping to "efaserver.mydomain.local" works from all machines. Can you please confirm this? Do ...

Looks like Chrome error to me. The "NXDOMAIN" portion of the message = Non-exist domain. At a guess the user clicking on the link is external to the organisation? ".local" domains aren't valid internet domains, they're internal domains used by Active Directory and the like. It'll...

Running the update as per shawn's suggestion in https://forum.efa-project.org/viewtopic.php?p=8683#p8683 seemed to fix it for me. However I did get the following warnings, which was the same as the initial EFA-Update summary (except EFA-Upgrade stopped a the "SESSION_NAME" line); *** ERROR...

Hi jamerson (again!), Check your DNS configuration in EFA. SSH > IP Settings > Primary DNS & Secondary DNS. I've got EFA using our AD DNS servers (EFA also has "DNS Recursion" disabled). Whatever you decide to use I'd recommend not using public or your ISPs DNS servers otherwise you'll...

Re: New to EFA

Hi jamerson. EFA works well with Exchange 2016. Pretty easy to integrate with the Junk E-mail folder (one setting change in EFA, one rule in Exchange). Quick 'n' dirty setup guide is; Add all the domains to EFA (SSH EFA > Mail Settings > Transport Settings). Relay is your Exchange box (10.10.10.3). ...

Is 192.168.1.117 your Exchange server? The log is missing part of the line that has the Exchange message id (InternalId=longnumber) which makes me wonder. Disabled SenderID on Exchange? Everything will be coming from the EFA box so SenderID will give you grief. Get-SenderIDConfig | fl enabled Have y...
