Hence we when we do this one we actually migrate the data to 365 and 2 you don't delete the server for months until you are sure everything is where is should be and working correctly.

Shoot I have a room of servers here from upgrades ... just in case.

I'd have backups of backups before trying something like that.

Just ... because comptuers

YES!!! Yeah no such luck there. No backups at all. Except for I think one user who had put crashplan or something on their machine cause they were paranoid (I think there might have been good reason).

I'm not sure "paranoid" would apply to those users.

@njbair Thanks for joining the community to share your appreciation. I'm glad I posted the steps I took to resolve the issue because if you would have asked me today how I fixed it I'm not sure I could have remembered.

This is the first this week that I've seen it blip. I think that this is a "Danielle's office" issue.

Scott, how does this work for non static profiles?

This might do what you want, have not used it myself.

Interesting. Basically an automated secretary.

@momurda said in Add Whitelist Entries in Office 365:

If you run this command again with different addresses/domains, doesnt it overwrite the previous items in the list, unwhitelisting your previous whitelist addresses?

Correct, this is setting the list. You'd have to append the new ones to the command.

@Mike-Davis have you noticed any new features have appears that should not be there in the E1 version?

Thanks to those of you that offered a suggestion. I built a second RDS server and applied my group policy and browsing was fine. I then started to think about what I needed to do to move it in to production and replace the one that had the browsing issue. Then it hit me.... I have load balancing on my SonicWall. RDS is mapped through the firewall on https. Therefore requests that went out over https could go out over either interface, but always came back on one. This is why it would sometimes work. This is also why most other sites would work, but https (in this case Office 365 which always goes over https) would only work once in a while. Adding a route to force all traffic from the RDS server out over the interface that traffic will come in on fixed the problem.

I mean, glad I know about it now, but honestly, the only comment on the article is correct.

That's like saying,

Oh watch out the forest fire is coming this way, when its already past, but avoided your house by only a few feet. And was already contained in a tiny area*.

I saw this yesterday - I don't have any users in my SfB and I'm the only person in my O365 account - so hopefully it will just STFU and stay quit now. 🙂

With powershell you can rename a UPN suffix. Pretty easy with powershell:

Thanks @Mike-Davis, this is one of the pieces to the puzzle that I was missing.

It's still Office 2016. It's just now it is naming it in the installer to distinguish the license source. It remains just a licensing mode for the Office 2016 product.

Ah, got it.

@BRRABill said in Office365 DirSync on new domain controller:

@lance

At least you know you got a competent answer. 😉

I have not used DirSync anywhere yet. Sorry.

Mine keeps flipping back and forth between the new admin center and the old one. Rather annoying.

@JasGot said in Exchange 2010 (On-prem) Migration to Hosted Exchange/Office 365 Planning:

@wrx7m How did your migration go? Have you done any more? Just curious what tools (if any) you used......

I'm about to start a migration and need to decide if I am going to do it as a pst import, or a migration from on premise exchange to cloud, and if so, do I use the built-in migration tool at admin.exchange.microsoft.com or a third party tool.

I am interested in what you did and what the pros and cons were.

Thanks!

Ended up doing a migration using the standard MS tools. Been a few years now and am glad I did it.
