Re: OWA Issues w/ small Bus. 2003 server

Ben,
when i say "outside" i 'm stating a user for example or myself who is
working from another location or home trying to connect. i do have an A
Record pointing to their FQDN but i have tried the IP/Exchange too . All i
get is : this page cannot be displayed -

Like i said earlier, i can bring-up their default web site by typing :
http://IP
so i know my Pix is allowing HTTP traffic through. I even had cisco connect
remotely to ensure the config i applied is correct ., e.g, forwarding the
http traffic internally to my servers' IP . - 192.168.x.x.

I've done this a hundred times using windows 2003 server / exchange server
and had no problems with OWA - I just started working with small bus. 2003
and frankly- don't care for it too much right now.

thanks.

Can you explain what "trying from the outside" exactly means?

Are you attempting to use the FQDN of the server? (won't work unless it
exists in public DNS and is mapped to the external IP of your PIX).

What happens when you type in http://ip address/exchange?

Hope someone can help me out with this problem -
Over the weekend I installed small bus. 2003 server behind a pix firewall
,
single server installation.

i've setup my pix to forward the http request for OWA over to my internal
IP
of the server but cannot get OWA to open from outside the network. I can
access OWA from inside - no problem.

whey trying from the outside - i get the : page cannot be displayed using
I.E .

however, i can type : Http://IP address
and get the : WELCOME TO SMALL BUSINESS SERVER 2003 PAGE
Which has the - My company's internal web site and
Network configuration wizard tasks.

I checked in IIS Manager/ Directory security Tab and made sure that SSL is
not required - I've never had a problem before with OWA when running on
exchange 2003 Server using standard edition server but this is the first
time
in awhile i've setup small bus. 2003.

Wanted to see if Small bus. 2003 server has any special permissions that i
may have forgot to set to enable OWA

THANKS,
