Actually, Q309622 refers to the Global catalog server, rather than the
Exchange server. If
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Lsa\RestrictAnonymou
s is set to 0x2 on the GC and the security roll up is applied to the GC
server as well, then anonymous users, and Exchange 2000/Outlook, can't
access the directory to resolve names. So, you could put your Exchange
server on the Internet, unless it's also a Global Catalog server,
although this certainly would not follow any best practices for many
other reasons.

Would you really consider placing your email server on the internet
without a firewall?? Or atleast, a filtering router blocking all
TCP+UDP 135-139?? <I know - you don't need to block the whole range, but
much easier to type :)>
... think VPN.
Thanks!

Greeting,
I wonder how many people got this error.
In the kb below, MS said Exchange2K cannot have restrictanonymous=0x2,
otherwise it will blocks users from browsing the Global Address List.
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;Q309622
So, is that means, an Exchange 2000 server cannot install SRP1 and
having restrictanonymous=0x2 ??? In this case, an Exchange 2000 server
might vulnerable to Null Session enumeration. So is the only solution
now is protect the server with firewall ?
regards,
.//Jet
