Services and Port Executables Enabled by the Exchange 2007 SCW Registration Files

Microsoft Exchange Server 2007 will reach end of support on April 11, 2017. To stay supported, you will need to upgrade. For more information, see Resources to help you upgrade your Office 2007 servers and clients.

 

Applies to: Exchange Server 2007, Exchange Server 2007 SP1, Exchange Server 2007 SP2, Exchange Server 2007 SP3

The Security Configuration Wizard (SCW) uses XML registration files to help you configure the Microsoft Windows operating system to operate with other applications. The registration files that the SCW uses define the security configuration that is required to operate a specific application. At a minimum, the security configuration defines the services and ports that are required for a specific application.

This topic describes the services and ports that are enabled for each Microsoft Exchange Server 2007 server role when you run the SCW with the default Exchange 2007 registration files.

Registration Files

Exchange 2007 includes two registration files for SCW. The general Exchange 2007 registration file is called Exchange2007.xml. It defines the security configuration for all Microsoft Exchange server roles, except the Edge Transport server role. The registration file for the Edge Transport server role is called Exchange2007Edge.xml. It defines the security configuration for Edge Transport servers.

The registration files are installed in the %Programfiles%\Microsoft\Exchange Server\Scripts directory when you install Exchange 2007.

Services that are enabled set the service startup value to either Automatic or Manual.

Ports that are enabled specify executable files (.exe) that are trusted by Windows Firewall to open ports for the specific application.

The Exchange 2007 registration files that are used by the SCW specify the port executables according to their default location. In most cases, the default location is at %Programfiles%\Microsoft\Exchange Server\bin. If you have installed Exchange into a different location, you must edit the <Path> value in the <Port> section of the Exchange 2007 registration files to indicate the correct installed location.
