This article shows you have you can use LDAP and the System.DirectoryServices Namespace to mail enable an Active Directory user account when you are using Exchange 2003 and 2007. Exchange 2007 and a lot of new products of Microsoft rely heavily on Powershell to script and automate tasks. Due to the fact that we have built several connectors using LDAP to automate our user management, we have invested some time to research why our current Exchange 2003 connections wouldn't work with the new Excha...

Until now, writing and deploying server-side applications that read, modify, and generate documents used by Microsoft® Office applications has presented a challenge. The older binary format used by Microsoft Word, Excel®, and PowerPoint® was introduced in 1997 and has remained the default file format up through the Office 2003 release. However, this binary file format has proven to be too tricky to work with. The vast majority of production applications that read and write Office documents do so...

From a high-level perspective, the process for ink capture and analysis on the Tablet PC is straightforward. In managed code, where object creation and access is consistent and simple, it is easy to develop managed applications for Tablet PC. And it won't be much more difficult for seasoned Windows developers to develop such apps in unmanaged code. To the uninitiated developer, however, creating unmanaged Tablet PC applications can be rather daunting. Taking input from a pen and transforming it ...

It's a common problem everywhere. Data arrives at your doorstep in all sorts of formats, typically initiating some sort of customer service, order fulfillment, or other business process. Often the data arrives in an e-mail message accompanied by other documents. Once the e-mail is received, an automated reply must be sent and the e-mail must be saved to a database or to a line-of-business (LOB) application. Depending on the kind of data received, different e-mail notifications may be needed. Dea...

In my last column I introduced Password Minder, the tool I use to manage all of my passwords. It generates a long, random password for each site I visit, and makes it possible for me to use the most complex passwords possible, without ever having to see the actual password material or type it in manually. If you didn't have a chance to read that column, you should go do that now, otherwise this column won't make much sense! This time, I'll take you on a tour of the guts of how Password Minder im...

HTTP services are a core function for supporting many current application development technologies, including Web services, ASP.NET applications, and other traditional Web applications. The traditional way to provide HTTP support for Web applications on the Windows platform has been to run IIS. IIS has a number of problems however, including a history of security problems and some significant management issues. A viable alternative to using IIS is Cassini, Microsoft's source-available Web server...

First, let me say that you should embrace Exchange 2000 applications . Translation: if you provide a basic service level agreement and think of yourself as an application hosting service, you will be able to provide a better system and infrastructure for Exchange 2000 applications. Wise Exchange professionals have always encouraged companies to devote computers to Exchange applications. Sure, you can run an Exchange application and mailboxes on the same server, but what happens when the Ev...

Exchange 2000 Server is one of those products that require a lot of love and attention when it comes to getting it up and running, but once it's there it pretty much takes care of itself. Because of that, there is not usually a lot of customization that you can perform on Exchange without the addition of some third-party products. There are, however, a few things that you can tweak in Exchange to change the way it operates—on a small scale at least....

You might be fooled by looking at the exam objectives for exam 70-224 into thinking that this exam is one that you can just walk right into without a good background in Exchange 2000. Nothing could be farther from the truth. Not only must you have a complete understanding of Exchange 2000 Server Enterprise Edition, you must also have knowledge of how the Enterprise Edition varies from the Standard and Conferencing editions—including what limitations you face with each version. If that weren't...

In this Exchange 2000 Org, I have added mailboxes to each server. The Active Directory keeps these settings under an Exchange attribute on the Class object USER for each specific person having a mailbox. But if you look at the Exchange objects in the Users and Computers console, you see that the folders (in the default TLH) are also added into the Active Directory and are further identified by what server holds the master copy of the folder....

This document was prepared in order to detail the mechanics behind a Service Level Agreement between a fictitious Company ABC and an outsourcing vendor. Several specific requirements have been assumed and documented in this article. You will want to replace the requirements of company ABC with your company's specific requirements. My goal was to product a template that other companies could use to begin work on their own SLA....

Recently I had the opportunity to see the future of Enterprise IM systems. I'm not the only one who thinks that by the way—but we'll look at that more later. In the past few years, a major shift in the way business is done has been slowly occurring. The shift from paper communications to electronic communications was one that was slow in coming, but once it got started, was one that could not be stopped. The first, and the popular type, of electronic communications within the organization wa...
