Thanks again Jenny,

I see the function now... BUT for reference, until I ticked it the box
(Basic Authentication (password is sent in
clear text)" in ExchWeb virtual server) the location to put the domain
name was grayed out so I just assumed... anyway I now un-ticked the box,
restarted the default website and checked to see if the name remained..
it
did, so I checked function... all is well.

Hi Dirk-Thomas,

No, we need not tick the option "Basic Authentication (password is sent
in
clear text)" in ExchWeb virtual server.

Let me describe more detail about the domain\username issue's cause:

By default, the Default Domain property on the corresponding IIS
sub-directories (under Authentication -> Access Control) will be set as
following:

1. Exchange: \
2. ExchWeb/Bin: \

However, Exchange 2003 SP1 replaces the OWA logon screen (Program
Files\Exchsrvr\bin\auth\usa\logon.asp) and it caused OWA now to ask for
domain\username instead of simply just the username.

Solution:
===============
We can add the domain name in the Exchange virtual directory, Directory
Security, Authentication and access control, Default Domain to fix the
issue.

Another:
===============
If the domain name specified for ExchWeb/Bin is not configured and it is
not the same as Exchange virtual server, users cannot call the Spell
Checker from ExchWeb/Bin.

Please feel free to let me know if you have any further question on the
issue. I am glad to help-).

Have a nice day!

Sincerely,

Jenny Wu

Thanks Jenny that corrected it but it was necessary to tick send password
in
clear text also in the exchweb. Was that acceptable or do I need to
change
the setting?

Hi Dirk-Thomas,

Thanks for your update. I appreciate your time to the issue.

The spell checker issue may occurs due to that the domain name
specified
for ExchWeb/Bin is not configured and it is not the same as Exchage.

In order to resolve this issue, navigate to ExchWeb/Bin and change its
domain setting to match Exchange. To do this, try the following:

*Note: Please configure the Exchange virtual server as required in my
previous post, and then configure the ExchWeb/Bin to use the same
default
domain settings.

1. Open SBS Server Management console, locate the node ExchWeb (under
the
default web site), expend "ExchWeb", right-click "Bin" and then select
"Properties".

2. Go to the Directory Security Tab

3. Click EDIT in Authentication and access control

4. Configure the default domain setting as Exchange virtual folder and
click OK to finish the configuration.

5. Restart the default web site.

Then please test the issue again to see if the issue is resolved.

Have a nice day!

Sincerely,

Jenny Wu

Opps Jenny I spoke to soon.

I can now authenticate with user name only BUT the spell check will not
work, I get an error sating it can not be completed at this time, and
OWA
times out requiring me to logon again.

It put the setting back to the default "\" restarted the default
website
again and all functions normally again

Any further suggestions would be helpful.

Thanks Jenny, its been so long since I needed to do this I forgot it!
Anyway, all is well now.

I understand the need for the full SP pack but client runs an
application
that is not certified to run with Windows Server SP-1 (In this case
the
full SBS SP-1)

Thanks again for the refresher...

Hi Dirk-Thomas,

From your description, I understand the issue to be: you need input
domain
name/user name to access the OWA site. If I am off base, please
don't
hesitate to let me know.

Let us perform the following tests to see if it helps:

I. Please double check if you can just input user name (without the
domain
name) to access the OWA site. If you still able to log on to OWA by
using
just user name. On the OWA logon screen it now requests
"Domain\username:"
where I think it used to request just the username.

In this scenario, we can change "Domain name\user name:" on the
logon
screen to "User name:" by following these steps:

1. Open logon.asp in C:\Program Files\Exchsrvr\exchweb\bin\auth\usa
with
Notepad.
2. Find the following line:
CONST L_UserName_Text = "Domain\user name:"

3. Change "Domain\user name:" to "User name:".
4. Save the logon.asp.

II. If you cannot log on to OWA by using just user name (without
the
domain name), we can perform the following changes in IIS to resolve
the
issue:

1. Open the properties of the Exchange Virtual Directory (under
the
default web site).
2. Go to the Directory Security Tab
3. Click EDIT in Authentication and access control
4. Change the Default domain to match the NETBIOS Domain name of
the
organization.
5. Ok the changes.
6. Restart the default web site.

Now, you should be able to access OWA using Forms Based
Authentication
by
just typing in the Username.

Additionally it is recommended that you apply the Whole SBS 2003 SP1
to
the
SBS server box first and then apply Exchange 2003 SP2. You can refer
to
the
following article to apply SBS 2003 SP1.

Installing Windows SBS 2003 with SP1, "Getting Started" at the
Microsoft
Web site (http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=51143

Also I would like to suggest that you take a look at the following
article
regarding to Exchange 2003 SP2.

Microsoft Exchange Server 2003 Service Pack 2 Release Notes



http://download.microsoft.com/download/f/b/5/fb5c54af-fe5c-48e9-be97-f9e8207

Hope above information helps! I am happy to be of assistance to you
and
look forward to your reply.

Have a nice day!

SBS 2003 Premium recent security packs including Exchange Server
done.
SBS
NOT at SP1 yet Exchange 2003 is at SP2 but all up to date other than
that.
After doing the last Exchange security update I am back to needing
to
put
the domain name/user name in before OWA lets me in. I remember a
fix/cure
for this but forgot it.

Can anyone lead me back in the right direction please?
