Re: RPC over HTTP (Office 07/ Vista Bus / SBS 2003)

You seem to have a problem with your cert. The cert should be issued for the
same servername that you connect to (doesn't have to be the actual server
name). If you connect to mail.yourdomain.com the cert should say that as
well.

XP boxes should not continually ask for the username and password. Outlook
should only ask one time (when you open it) and it should certainly not
break OWA.

Did you follow the document on your RWW site when you configured RPC over
HTTP?

Hi All,

We've recently setup an sbs 2003 server running Exchange for a client.
They have several remote users who we are trying to setup with RPC over
HTTP to check emails.

On XP machines, it just continually asks for Username/Password. I have
had it setup successfully, however when I did, Outlook Web Access
stopped working.

On Vista machines, it says:

"There is a problem with the proxy server's security certificate. The
security certificate is not from a trusted certifying authority.

Outlook is unable to connect to the proxy server kbserver.kbhs.com.au
(error code 8) "

however, I have manually installed the certificate into the Trusted
Root Certification Authorities folder. The certificate is an
SBS-generated certificate.

I would have thought that the certificate was the problem if I hadn't
had success getting it to work on an XP machine.

Does anyone have any ideas?

Thanks in advance,
ForestTech
