By default message size in SBS2008 is set to 10MB. So if you are using Pop3 Connector to get mails and someone sends an email with attachment that is more than 10MB, Pop3 connector will not download the message and will log an error with Event ID: 210
One or more messages (1) were left in the ’email’ account on the POP3 server ‘mail.server.com’ because they are larger than the maximum acceptable message size (the largest message is 14781808 bytes). You can either connect to the POP3 account and retrieve or delete the messages manually, or increase the maximum acceptable message size in Exchange Server.

Installing Veeam FastSCP 3.0 on Windows 7 beta
25
Mar
So because Windows 7 is still in Beta, Veeam FastSCP 3.0 does not support it, but it does not mean that you cannot use it.
While trying to install the application on Windows 7 beta you’ll get the following message.
To get around it you can use Winrar to extract the package and launch FastSCPSetup.msi file.
If you don’t have Winrar and don’t want to install it use command line to extract the content of veeam_fastscp_3.0.exe.
the syntax looks like this:
veeam_fastscp_3.0.exe /C /T:(full path)
The following example extracts everything to c:\temp\veeam
Windows 7 Build 7022
27
Feb
Most of you probably know that there is a new build 7022 of Windows 7 floating on the Internet.
I’ve been using Windwos 7 build 7000 for some time now and decided to upgrade to see what it has to offer.
The upgrade went without problems although it took long 1 hour and 10 minutes and multiple reboots. All the application that were installed previously worked fine after upgrade. After upgrade I was asked to provide a key and activate even though it was activated before.
The biggest change probably is the IE8 which is RC1, but the pages that were not working for me on the previous version of IE8 were still not working on RC1. I have not noticed any performance differences for day to day tasks. There are some UI changes but nothing major.
At the moment I don’t see a reason to upgrade form build 7000 to 7022 as it is not big jump and does not provide anything significant.

1. Open Configuration manager console. Navigate to Site Database>Computer Management>Operating System Deployment>Boot images. Click on Add Boot Image

SCCM: One of the reasons why clients report as unkown in Software updates
21
Jan
Here are my finding why updates cannot be deployed to the clients.
As you probably know in order for SCCM to install updates it has to know what updates are already installed. ‘Software updates scan cycle’ action is responsible for scanning the machine and checking what updates installed and what are missing. If this action cannot be performed or fails it will display unknown deployment status in SCCM Software Updates. (see image image below)

Windows 7 first impression

Jan
Everyone probably knows about Windows 7 beta release to public. Because I’ve read some good reviews of it I thought I’ll give it a try. I am using both Vista and XP. As most of the public I prefer XP over Vista. The only reason why i use Vista is because it will take half a day to reinstall my laptop and put all the needed stuff and still most likely will forget something. (more…)
