Exchange and dns2go - 9.Jan.2002 10:14:00 PM

I cannot receive the mail from internet in my exchange 2k which is behind the ISA.
I have two machines - win2k domain controller and win2k Advance server running exchange.

Domain controller has two nics. One for external connection and one for internal connection. Domain controller is also loaded with ISA. My second exchange box has address of 192.162.200.7 which I got while creating ISA server.

My exchange box as well as domain controller can connect to internet. No prob.

I have my dns2go client is loaded at domain controller. And my internal DNS service is also running there. I have created MX record there and said that my mail server is exchange1. Also there is host record of exchange1. I can send mail outside but I cannot receive it...

Any help would be highly appreciated.

Hi Uju,

If you have Exchange and a DC on the same box, you've got a relatively complex setup. It will work, but you have to cross T's and I's perfectly. I don't know how dns2go works, but I have a similar configuration working with TZO.

Here's a quick tip: make sure you disabling socket pooling for all the services running on the ISA Server, and make sure the DNS server listens only on the internal interface of the ISA Server.

HTH,
Tom

1. How do I disable socekt pooling for all the services running ?

2. What do you mean by DNS server listens only on internal interface ? How do I do this ? Any web site address or your small notes would be highly appreciable.

A. Can people ping you by name from the outside?

B. Are you hosting a TLD (Top Level Domain, such as www.mydomain.com) or a subdomain (such as mydomain.dns2go.com)?

C. Have you checked your logs to see if SMTP (port 25) traffic is being dropped, or just not showing up at all?

D. Have you actually "published" the exchange server (see learning zone for articles)?

I have the same setup, but both servers are DCs and I am using Exchange 2K with no problems hosting mail (except when the outside ISA NIC was using DHCP from RoadRunner) and I use TZO to host my TLD.

Hi Clutch,
Thx for the reply.

1. Yes people can ping outside. Like himal.dns2go.com

2. Its the sub domain under dns2go.

3. For publishing, do you know which articles you are pointing to ?

4. Are your win2k domain controller and exhange 2000 server are same box or different box ? And is ISA installed in win2K domain controller ?

3. http://www.isaserver.org/shinder/tutorials/publishing_a_mail_Server_with_isa_server.htm

4. Yes, I have 2 servers, both of which are AD DCs (you should *always* have a minimum of 2 DCs for replication of the AD and DNS databases). One is running ISA server, and the other is running Exchange 2000, SQL 2000, and IIS with a couple of published websites and an FTP site. Oh, and it hosts Terminal Services and my TZO client for me as well.

Also, did you check your packet filter log for any blocked SMTP traffic? And are you positive that your ISP doesn't have port 25 blocked?

my experience show this is not a firewall problem but a email configure problem.

go to recipient policy and configure default policy.

see http://www.lochihang.dynamic-site.net/setup1.bmp

configure Email Address and smtp to recieve your dns2go domain rather than Win2K dns domain.

see http://www.lochihang.dynamic-site.net/setup2.bmp

Try it!

Unfortunately, his server was offline while I was looking for his screen caps, but it sounds like you have your email server listening only for your internal root domain (TLD) rather than your subdomain which is what everybody else would use. However, it does look like you have the proper subdomain address for the admin account since you are getting "Administrator@himal.dns2go.com" in your non-delivery error.

Also, when I was asking about your logs, I am asking for your "Packet Filter" log from your ISA box. Do you have that enabled?

When I send the message using OWA to my hotmail, it goes out and I get it in my hotmail account. But when I reply back, I get above erroe message.

BUT, BUT....

If I put my domain controller and Exchange in one box (absolutely one box) - I can get and send mail to my @himal.dns2go.com domain - no problem.

The problem only happens when I make exchange as my seperate server.

My domain controller is one server. And my exchange is another box. Its advance server. The IP of exchange is that assigned by or wihtin the perimeter of second nic of ISA server, that is 192.168....range.

When I last spoke with dns2go guy, he told me that the message is deliverable to only exact server - that is the server where himal.dns2go.com is hosting. But, once I use DNS of my own for internal_name_space (like my exchange box's dns address is : exchange1.himal.dns2go.com) - then my domain controller box which is jovan.himal.dns2go.com should able to route the mail to my exchange box - THAT IS WHAT IS NOT HAPPENING...??

Umm, did that log clip cover a timeframe when an incoming email was expected? No bother, it sounds like you simply don't have the exchange box published. So, are you saying that you had Exchange server installed on the same box as your AD DC along with ISA server?

It works when Exchange and Domain controllers are in same box WITHOUT ISA.

I haven't tried ISA also in the same box. It will make a hell lot of complex.

So, what I wanted to do is Domain controller and ISA in one box and Exchange in another box.

I have published with secure mail rule the mail server and IP address all says about internal NICs.

Help me - please ??

Hi Uju,

Check out www.isaserver.org/shinder for some tips on configuring your domain controller to run ISA. More later on putting Exchange on the same server (BTW - it will work!).

Well, it does work fine since he got an email from me a little while ago (it would have been there sooner, but I think his server/dns2go account was offline for a while).

BTW, I got the reply...

That is not the machine. Hey clutch, the reply you got from is - everything in one box...

I told several times, that if I put everything in one box, it works fine - WITHOUT ISA - haven't tried putting ISA in the same box...I got your mail and I replied back also. The server has everything on it...like win2k doamin controller, exchange 2000 and dns2go client everything in one box..that is working..

I'm not concern with that..

My concern is when I put win2k domain controller and ISA in one server and Exchange in another server, then it does not work...this is where I need help...

Except you missed one minor detail; you have TWO Exchange installations being hosted currently behind your ISA box. And since it looks like you have one external IP and MX/A record for your incoming mail traffic, you need to stop using (and completely disable) all port 25 services on your ISA server so that the internal mail server can be published. Your problem has nothing to do with Exchange being installed on a DC (I have both configurations, and neither is a big deal with Exchange 5.5 or 2K) and more to do with your configuration of 2 mail servers using what appears to be 1 IP and 1 common port.

I do not have two exchnage server running behind the ISA server. The server we exchanged mail, is "everything" in one server. That I'll take offline. I'm not concerned with that.

Yes, I have one IP, one MX record and one line.

My private address is 10.128.1.98. This is mapped one to one to my internet address

Now I build one domain controller with two nics on it..and used above address to external nic and internal nic has 192.168.200.2 address. Everythig is pingable.

While installing ISA - I defined range of addresses which will go thru ISA server. One of them is 192.168.200.7 - this address I have used in my another box - which is advance server and exchange is installed on it...gateway is pointed to ISA server internal nic

I can browse the internet. I can send the mail but I cannnot receive it...

Is that packet filter log is correct or not correct.

Forget about "other" or "second" exchange server. Now the MX record is pointed to the internet as himal.dns2go.com

And for internal process, I created MX record in my DNS server as exchange1.himal.dns2go.com so that mail will be routed to my exchange1 box.

Hope you understand now. I have only one exchange server behind the ISA server.
