Exchange 2007 Service Pack 1 or Greater Setup

1. Create an account that will be used by the Barracuda Backup to access the e-
mails in each mailbox. It is strongly suggested that you use a service type
account and not your administrator account, as some inheritied deny permissions can
cause issues. This service account requires an Exchange mailbox and SMTP address
and must be a member of one of the following groups: Exchange View-Only
Administrators, Exchange Organization Administrators, Enterprise Admins, or Domain
Admins.

2. Assign the service account permissions to the Mailbox Databases on your Exchange
server.

Open the Exchange Management Shell and run the following commands, replacing the
<ServiceAccount> with the username of your Service Account:

Get-ClientAccessServer | Add-AdPermission -User <ServiceAccount> -ExtendedRights

ms-Exch-EPI-Impersonation

Get-MailboxDatabase | Add-AdPermission -User <ServiceAccount> -ExtendedRights ms-

Exch-EPI-May-Impersonate

3. Depending on replication policies and Exchange server activity, it might be

helpful to perform a group policy update on the Exchange server to help
replicate permissions. Run the following command from the command line:

gpupdate /force

Barracuda Backup Web Interface Steps

Now that you have setup your Exchange installation to allow the backup server to
access it, you can now add it to the web interface:

1. Add your server with the proper hostname or IP address, description, Windows
version, username and password or locate it in the existing list if it has
already been added previously. Make sure that you verify the servers username and
password work correctly.

2. Next to your server click Add Backup Data

3. Enter a description and select Message-Level Backup (Exchange) as the data type,
then enter the username, password and Windows Domain Name for your Exchange Server.

Base Distinguished name is optional and only needed if directed to do so by

support.

4. Now click the Test Exchange Connectivity button to verify all the data entered
is correct.

5. If the connectivity test returns OK, you can now pick what mailboxes you wish to
backup.

6. Click Save Changes
