(there is an exchange 2007 add-on for evolution but I couldn't get it to work, just kept crashing and I'm not a huge fan of evolution).

If you don't have admin access to your windows server and your windows sysadmin is a tool, then this is the only way I have found to access exchange reliably from Ubuntu.

Option 1) Install DavMail on your local PC, this option works but is not recommended because the speed is a bit slow. Install Thunderbird with the Lightning extensions. I, on the other hand have admin access to our company SBS server so I installed the windows version on SBS and found the experience much more responsive, I guess the bottle neck is when DavMail accesses OWA.Īnyway I though I would document the steps I have takes to setup my workstation access to exchange 2007 because it was quite frustrating trying to find a solution that works as well as this. If you don't have admin access to your windows server installing it locally would be your only option. It worked well but was quite slow to retrieve information. The first time I set it up I installed it on my Ubuntu workstation. This little application is absolutely fantastic!!! I can run Thunderbird from my Ubuntu workstation with access to exchanges email, calendar, tasks and contacts.ĭavMail uses Exchanges OWA to retrieve email, calendar, tasks and contacts.

Hope that someone can figure out the decent direct way.I have been crawling through google for months trying to find a way to have my Linux (Ubuntu) PC connect to our company Microsoft SBS 2008 server running exchange 2007. Maybe it is even possible to start it using task scheduler to run it as SYSTEM (via shortcut, startup, logon or whatever) without GUI (haven't tried this one). You can use an program like 'tray-it' to hide the VMware. To match the resolution of whatever screen you are using. This is very handy if your resolutions of the screens don't match. Or connect teamviewer to a normal VMware. It is very inconsistent.Īnother way around this is running a very tiny VMware to log on to with Teamviewer, and than do a RDP from there to your second session. And teamviewer will only connect to the user that is last logged in, I think. If the 'real user' in session1 hits 'show desktop' your 2nd session will disconnect. Sending it to the background is no problem. However, you can't minimize the RDP in session1 or teamviewer will loose its connection.

start an RDP to your internal IP 127.0.0.2.

If you follow this guideline about the RDPwrapper to allow 2 different sessions to your PC:.

However connecting/reconnecting to the correct session is still a problem. I've proven it is possible to connect with teamviewer to 2 different sessions on one PC. It is/should be possible, maybe someone with some more technical expertise can work on it. or you could one of the cheaper alternatives like thinstuff's xpvs-server (sorry cant add more links) THis site explains the different scenarios well. If you are attempting to have multiple sessions into the same PC (which is what it would appear) then you will have to use Windows Terminal Server or Windows MultiPoint Server. Multiple TeamViewer Connections (note: the Connection Window is the first one)ī). Then once connected to the second (or later) session if you left click on the TeamViewer Task bar icon you will see a horizontal minature windows graphical task switcher style list of all the remote PC session Windows to switch between simply by clicking-on and thus selecting the one you want. If you left click you need to click on the first TeamViewer connection panel to start a new session OR if you right-click select the TeamViewer application text in the menu and you can get to the same new connection window.

Once that first connection is open you can minimise or Alt-Tab away from it and then repeat this step to open more remote sessions. In Windows 8/8.1 you can left click or right click on the TeamViewer 11 Task Manager Icon and select the Teamviewer 11 application to open TeamViewer and then you can connect to the remote PC. If you are attempting to have multiple sessions out of the one PC then:
