Re: ISA FBA Issues with OWA

Okay - I gave the default.asp thing a try, but it's not working.

OK... I forgot to mention that you do either the path redirection via ISA,
OR the Default.ASP trick, not both. Maybe you are still using the OWA
publishing rule that redirects?

The
default web site is on the Exchange Server, so that's where I put the
default.asp file (is this correct?)

Correct, and you should test from the internal LAN as well that it works as
expected before you move on to publishing via ISA.

Or - is there a place on the ISA
Server where this file should be placed?

Nope, you were correct the first time.

This ISA server is pretty simple [...]
two are for OWA (one for normal access, one for the
redirect)

As i was saying... you use one method, or the another. If you decide to go
with the Default.ASP trick, you should disable the "redirect" rule, which
means that the other rule will be hit.

When I type in the url that should be redirected, I can see
the redirect rule being hit in the logs, so it's at least recognizing
that much.

Yeah that is exactly the problem. The client doesn't get to the Default.ASP
file because it is being redirected by that rule before it can do it. Again,
disable that rule.

The paths section in the rule for redirect:
External: /*
Internal: /exchange/*

Well if you wanted to do this with a redirect the rule should read:
External: /
Internal : /exchange

Note there is no " * " after " / " in the External path.

The paths section of the normal OWA rule (3 entries with the same
External path, 3 different internal paths):
External: <same as internal>
Internal: /exchange/*, /exchweb/*, /public/*

Those are correct (preset by the OWA publishing rule I suppose). Add " / "
as an Internal path, with External same as internal, so that clients can
retrieve the Default.ASP page, if you choose that method.
