Had a similar problem with Entourage: 13.0.3 Web services edition and Exchange 2007 SP1

Users got:

ERROR

HTTP Error. The server cannot fulfill the request.

Explanation

Mail could not be sent. The messege has been moved to your Drafts folder.

Account name: “xxxxxxx”

Error: – 18500

Had to edit web.config (…:MicrosoftExchange ServerClientAccessexchwebews) and add <httpRuntime maxRequestLength=”30000″ /> after <system.web>, restarted IIS and that actually fixed it.

This is a really powerfull tool to troubleshoot some email issue and check if your system is up and running

http://www.mxtoolbox.com/

Use the Blacklist : This will check if you email server is listed as SPAM

Use the SPF : This will check and test your SPF record

Start up would take about 1 minute. I have completely fixed the problem.

It seems as though the office programs hang on startup due to 2 reasons.
The first being the auto start up of the project gallery and the second is the way it renders the preview of fonts(I use “Font Book” to preview my fonts anyhow.).

Here is how to fix it:

1. Launch word
2. Go to Word>Preferences
3. Click on “General”
4. uncheck “WYSIWYG font and style menus”
5. uncheck “Show Project Gallery At Startup”
6. Quit word
7. Reopen Word

My office programs now boot in 4 seconds and run smoothly.

Default Sender email address for Nagios

Open Terminal (As root)

nano /etc/nagios/objects/contacts.cfg

define contact{

contact_name                    nagiosadmin

use                             generic-contact

alias                           Nagios Admin

email                           support@cyberblogue.com

}

Directory structure and Monitoring Definition for Nagios

Under /etc/nagios  you have 2 important folders depends on the config inside nagios.cfg

/etc/nagios/servers/

Under the servers folder create 3 folders to organize the layout

• linux
• windows
• www_sites

Modify the hostgroup file to reflect your configuration

define hostgroup{

hostgroup_name  windows-servers ; The name of the hostgroup

alias           Windows Servers  ; Long name of the group

members         srv1,srv2,srv3

}

The member section is the critical one. Each member MUST reflect a config file within the subdirectory.

Sample file : srv1.domain.local.cfg

define host{

use             windows-server  ; Inherit default values from a template

host_name       srv1      ; The name we’re giving to this host

alias           srv1.domain.local;   ; A longer name associated with$

address         10.0.0.4        ; IP address of the host

}

The Host_name MUST be in the Hostgroup under members, this the section where Nagios make the association with the HostGroup and the config file.

Always name a server config file with the FQDN of the server you want to monitor and add .cfg at the end (This is only for Standard): srv1.domain.local.cfg

To monitor the services, look at all the sample file to help you define the option of monitoring.

After making the changes to the config files, you need to check your nagios.cfg files for errors :

nagios -v /etc/nagios/nagios.cfg
