Adding Proxy Addresses in AD Before Tenant-to-Tenant Migration Cutover
We're in the process of migrating users from another M365 tenant into our own, which is synced with on-prem AD. Before the cutover, we'd like to add the proxy addresses from the source tenant to our AD and have them sync to the cloud once the domain is added to our M365 tenant. Would this work as expected, or are there any potential issues to be aware of?Microsoft O365 Auto Login
I want to set up auto-login for the O365 desktop application. When a user logs in to an on-premises AD-joined device, the O365 application should automatically log in with their AAD credentials. I have an AAD subscription, and user sign-in is configured with password hash synchronization. Additionally, I have enabled SSO on the Azure AD Connect application. Please note that the end-user devices are not Azure AD-joined.
Remove On Premises exchange Hybrid and go fully Online
Hello, I currently have a scenario where there is a Hybrid Exchange environment with 1 server. All my mailboxes have been migrated online. I would like to completely remove dependency on local AD and I do not care about AD synchronization. How do I "tell" the O365 tenant not function on it's own so that I can manage 100% from 365 Administration? I do understand that my MX and other DNS records will need to be changed. Are there any solid guides out there on decommissioning the on premise exchange server. I want to do this with the least impact on users. Thanks, KeithMoving Exchange Account Source Account
I have a very complex environment I'm hoping someone might jump start my search. We have two domains syncing to Entra ID. One domain is a resource forest where our Exchange environment sits. That domain contains disabled stub accounts synced to our primary domain where the actual user accounts sit. The source for all EXO mailboxes are the stubs in the resource forest. Those accounts are kept in sync using FIM 2008. We're wanting to decom that entire resource environment and move all of the attributes to the primary domain. The resource domain schema is the last version of Ex 2016. The primary domain schema is Ex 2010 SP1. I know my first step is to update the primary schema, however, has anyone encountered a situation like this? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Address rewrite not working for Calendar items
Hi, We are running a hybrid environment with 3 active directory domains, 3 on-prem Exchange clusters and the majority of our mailboxes in O365. We have set up a default address rewrite so that emails from everyone across the 3 different legacy domain names appear to come from the new domain name. Emails are sent from O365 back to the on-prem clusters for rewriting. Lets use an example john@oldcompany1.com john@oldcompany2.com john@oldcompany3.com Address rewrite is set up so all emails from the above addresses are displayed to external recipients as: john@newcompanyname.com This works perfectly for all outbound emails, however it does not work with meeting/calendar invites. For example, my own mailbox has the default alias of @oldcompany1.com, and when I send an email to a recipient outside of our organisation, it shows as coming from @newcompanyname.com, but when I send a meeting/appointment to an external recipient, it shows as coming from @oldcompany1.com. Has anyone seen this before, if so - do you have any tips on where to start the troubleshooting process?
Move selected OU from On-Prem AD to cloud only AD
Hi . We have On-Prem AD sync with azure for O365 . Some of OU users are Remote users and so they are not connected to AD. We have business basics license so reset password of mail id from Cloud is not possible due to license limitation. So we are thinking of moving those users to cloud only so they can reset their password. Is there any safe way to migrate them to cloud only?Migrating On-Prem Distribution Groups to Exchange Online in Hybrid Mode
I have come across a number of articles on migrating distribution groups to Office 365 when you're not in hybrid mode. My situation is having hundreds of DLs on my on-prem Exchange environment that I need to move to the cloud. We don't want these converted to Office 365 groups, we want true distribution groups in the cloud. Is this possible with scripting or some other method? I really don't want to have to re-create these by hand.
Purchase Windows 10 Home to Pro upgrade through 365 account
Hi, I have a new laptop for a member of staff but in haste, it has Windows 10 Home installed. When I use the upgrade link in the Windows settings panel, I am required to logon to Microsoft Store to pay for the Windows upgrade on the device in question. My issue - and one that appears widely acknowledged - is that none of my 365 accounts are accepted as Microsoft accounts and therefore cannot access the MS Store to purchase the upgrade. Try as I might, I cannot find an alternate method to purchase this upgrade and I do not fancy purchasing an upgrade through some obscure personal MS account. So is it possible to complete purchases on the MS Store using either the 365 Admin account or a delegated user account on 365? Otherwise, is anyone aware of a method to purchase the W10 upgrade using at least an email address of one of my 365 accounts?Exchnage Cutover Migration to office 365
