Re: rpc over https problems

Tech Tip: Click here to run a free scan for Windows Errors and optimize PC performance

The message i get is
"The name on the security certificate is invalid or does not match the name
of the site"
but on the common name on the certificate I used is mail.domain.com
and to there I surf when I enter owa
(I have a router in the middle if its matter and the router of course do nat
the rpcc proxy is the same server which run EXCH and dc+gc

thanks


"M. den Ouden":

The 'common name' must be correct too. Which warning do you get with the
certificate (let's say, when you open it with OWA)?

I did install it
and inserted it to the trusted root both on the server and the client
on the server ' when i enter to iis admin->default web site
i have exclamation mark on the the certificate
although i followed every step on the msexchange article
when i enter to owa ,although i press startcom ca link(some feature they
have) in order to install the cert i countinue getting the warning message
(in green yellow




"M. den Ouden":

If you are using a self-made SSL certificate. Install it on the client PC
(for example by opening OWA, doubleclick the 'SSL lock' underneath,
choose
Install Certificate).

hi,

i have two questions:

1)

I have one exch 2003(without sp1) server which is also the dc (2003
server+sp1).
client: xp+sp1 outlook 2003

I followed the articles:

Configure SSL on OWA
Configure RPC over HTTP/S on a Single Server
Configure SSL on Your Website with IIS
Configure Outlook 2003 to use RPC over HTTP/S
Testing RPC over HTTP/S Connection

I've already implemented ssl with owa ( i used 3rd party ca but which
is
unknown to the clients, until i had it myself)


and

Configured Exchange to use RPC over HTTP/S.

Configured the RPC virtual directory in Internet Information Services.

Configured the RPC proxy server to use specific ports.

Configured the client computers to use RPC over HTTP/S


I'm trying to access from the lan
with
outlook.exe /rpcdiag

i see it still uses the tcp/ip
i tried to do it by force (only caused troubles, the esm didn't run)

when trying to connect through wan i get the logon box(where i need to
enter
the user/password)

and i get a message that the exchange server is unavailable(while i
know
it
is up)

kill me i dono i followed all the steps carefully.


2. one more problem is when i'm trying to connect simply by outlook
from
the
wan(without using ssl and all that stuff) to my exch server i'm
entering
my
exch server(external fqdn) on the profile configuration and it doesn't
work ,
only ip but when i use owa from wan there is no problem in resolving
names(dns seems to work fine)
furthermore, when i complete the profile wizard i'm trying to connect
and
i
get the user/password box(because im entering from a computer which is
not
part of the domain) and everytime i insert the cardentials, the box
jump
back
like if there is a problem with the input.
I'm sure my user / password is correct

thanks
