Yesterdays & Todays Jobs

Yesterday:

Another easy day had to install DSL Router for a client and setup PPTP VPN back to his office
Wont go into details as it was pretty standard stuff.

Today:

Slightly more challenging job for me this morning, a client had hit his 16GB limit in Exchange 2000 and his mailstore had dismounted.

To rectify I did the following.

1. Temporary increased the mailbox store by 1GB as per http://support.microsoft.com/kb/813051

2. Remounted the store and told all users to do some housekeeping on there mailboxes
3. Once housekeeping had been done I dismounted the mailbox store and ran an offline defrag of the priv1.edb using "eseutil /d" command.
4. The store was reduced by 4GB

Advised they should upgrade to Exchange 2003 and take advantage of the 75GB limit

Just had another job in with one user at one of our clients noy able to save PDF's direct to SBS2003 Server will report on this later when I am clearer on the details
