What’s No Longer Supported in Exchange Server 2007? 19
Exchange management via Active Directory Users and Computers
ßN
: Management of all
recipient objects (discussed more in Chapter 5) is now performed via the Exchange Man-
agement Console and Exchange Management Shell. Management of Exchange recipients
has been integrated in the Active Directory Users and Computers (ADUC) console in
the previous two versions of Exchange Server, but Exchange administrators who’ve
worked with Exchange Server 5.5 will recall this method of management very well.
Streaming database
ßN
: The streaming database (STM), first introduced in Exchange
2000 Server, has been removed in Exchange Server 2007.
Recipient Update Service
ßN
: The Recipient Update Service (RUS) has been removed from
Exchange Server 2007. To find out more about how to work with recipients, you will
examine email address generation more in Chapter 5.
Exchange 5.5 interaction
ßN
: Exchange Server 2007 does not interoperate with the Active
Directory Connector (ADC) or Site Replication Service (SRS) as in the previous two
versions of Exchange. As a result, you cannot directly migrate from Exchange Server
5.5 to Exchange Server 2007. We’ll discuss migration briefly in Chapter 2.
Network News Transfer Protocol (NNTP)
ßN
: This has been removed completely. You’ll
need to use Exchange Server 2003 or Exchange 2000 Server to provide this protocol
to clients.
X.400 message transfer agent
ßN
: This has been removed completely. You’ll need to use
Exchange Server 2003 or Exchange 2000 Server if your organization needs this mes-
sage transfer agent protocol.
Novell GroupWise connector
ßN
: This has been removed completely. You’ll need to use
Exchange Server 2003 or Exchange 2000 Server to provide this connector.
Lotus Notes connector
ßN
: This is no longer available, but Microsoft has provided migra-
tion and coexistence tools for Exchange Server 2007 by using the Microsoft Trans-
porter Suite tools.
Active/active clustering
ßN
: This is no longer supported. You’ll need to implement either
an active/passive SCC model or consider using the new high-availability features
provided by CCR. You’ll spend all of Chapter 10, “Disaster Recovery Operations
for Exchange Server,” looking at highly available Exchange Server 2007
implementations.
IMAP4 access to public folders
ßN
: You’ll need to retain Exchange Server 2003 or
Exchange 2000 Server to provide IMAP4 access to public folders to clients.
Exchange WebDAV extensions
ßN
: Exchange WebDAV has been replaced by the
Exchange Web Services.
