Hi

We have a SBS 2003 (no service pack),

Why not?

running Exchange 2k3 SP2, ISA
2000.
We are having problems configuring Outlook to Communicate with
Exchange over HTTP.

We have configured the subdomain Remote.OurDomain.co.uk to point to
our server, we have a server SSL certificate configured for
https://Remote.OurDomain.co.uk and our client has the reletive client
cert, the domain is in the Intranet Site List on the client and can
browse to OWA & remote web workplace.

So the user went to https://Remote.OurDomain.co.uk/remote or /exchange, and
then *installed* the certificate, right? Didn't just accept it?


I get the response "Forbidden: Read access is denied." when I goto
https://remote.ourdomain.co.uk/rpc which i hear is correct.

Nah.


I have configured Outlook as below:


Exchange Server: ourserver.ourdomain.local

That's good.

Username: my username

Exchange over the Internet Settings:
Checked : conect to my Exchagne mailbox using HTTP

Proxy Setttings:
URL: remote.ourdomain.co.uk
connect using ssl only: Checked
mutually authenticate the sesssion when connecting with SSL: checked
Principal Name For Proxy Server: msstd:publishing.MyDomain.local

Nope....this is the problem. That should be:
msstd:remote.ourdomain.co.uk



On Fast Networks... Checked
On Slow Networks... Checked

Proxy Auth: Basic Auth

That's all good.



When I open outlook i get prompted for my username & password a
number of times and then it says disconnected.

Any advice would be much appreciated

Try fixing the proxy & try again.



Thanks
B
