RE: tsweb, RWW, OWA not working

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

Hooray, that was it: specifically --
2. Check "\exchange", it should use Integrated Windows authentication and
Basic authentication.

We're at the home stretch. Stay with me! Trying to login to OWA I get the
following error (and I know my username and password are correct):

You could not be logged on to Outlook Web Access. Make sure your domain\user
name and password are correct, and then try again.

If I type domain\username
password

It works. On my other SBS server it doesn't require that I specify the
domain. It puts it in automatically.

Also, when attempting to access RWW from the web I am prompted for a
username and password to see the RWW homepage. Submitting my
username/password gets me in and then when I click on "Remote Web Workplace"
I am prompted for a username and password again. When I click on "My
Company's Internal Web Site" I get the internal website for the SBS server
where I am located (not at the same office where the SBS Server is located
that we're having issues with). And finally, when I click on "Network
Configuration Wizard" I get the following error message "You are not
authorized to view this page" even though I am logging on as a user with
Admin and Domain Admin priveleges.

The details of the error are:
The Web server you are attempting to reach has a list of IP addresses that
are not aloowed to access the Web site, and the IP address of your browsing
computer is on the list.

HTTP Error 403.6 - Forbidden: IP address of the client has been rejected.

I know I didn't set any list of IP addresses for rejection.

Thanks again. We're almost there. You've been a great help.
