Passed 70-238 with a 908

This test was just weird. 70-236 and 70-237 were right on with the MS objectives, however this one was just all over the place. I obviously can't say much about it, but like any other test, if you have real world experience and know your stuff, you'll pass. At the time of this post, neither 237 nor 238 have books released so I just took the tests blind (but with 2nd shot) and passed easily from being in the trenches with exchange 07.

Passed 70-237 with a breeze

That was a little too easy I think, I got a 921, again the exam objectives on the MS site are all covered, know your AD infrastructure or don't even try this one.

Passed 70-236 today, taking 237 friday

Obviously I can't say much about it, but the exam objectives listed on MS's site were dead on. The test did make me wonder who really backs up the queue databases on their hub transport servers?

There is no book out for 237, so I'm taking blind (thank goodness for 2nd shot). Wish me luck.

Public Folders and Exchange 07

So SP1 gave us some GUI management, but still no way to set permissions with the gui other than 'send as'. The 2 most common resolutions to this problem are 1. Leave PF's on Exchange 2003, and 2. Suck it up, and deal with it in powershell; here is how:

To modify the permissions of a top level folder to give the user "sally" editor rights and have this permission apply to all sub-folders, execute this command:

get-publicfolder -"\top level folder name" -recurse PIPE add-publicfolderclientpermission -accessrights "editor" -user "sally"

Use the pipe symbol, not the word, for some reason the symbol doesn't show up on blogger.
