Re: Trouble setting up Outlook 03 profile with HTTPs

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance

I am able to get by all the screens and enter the proxy settings, but outlook
will never launch unless I make the standard RCP over TCPIP connection
first. I have read on a couple of different sites and groups that you need
to make an RPC over TCPIP connection as the initial connection. I find that
a little strange.

I didn't/don't think Microsoft would require this. My situation is that I
have a couple of remote users with no VPN access and would like to setup the
accounts without the standard RPC over TCPIP connection. Any help will be
appreciated. Thanks.
