Re: The target principal name is incorrect. (-2146893022)

Merv,

I was reading about the BPA, I will give these a try. I did re-run the CEICW
a few time but I don't see a change. Is there a way to remove the rules that
were created from the past attempts and start fresh? At this point I have
very confused as to why OWA is not working. By all accounts it should be
working... something is definitely missing.

Some things to try...

Download, install, update and run a scan with the SBS 2003 BPA and also the
ISA BPA:

In addition, have you re-run CEICW, including enabling the firewall,
selecting your services, re-creating the certificate and then finishing
CEICW without any errors?

Steve,

Thanks for your reply, Yes I am running SBS R2 Premium. Tthe prevoius
system
admin bye-passed all the install wizards and and did some kind of manual
configuration that I am trying to fix. I have most of the system running
now
I just need to get OWA working. I'll read the links and see if that
helps. I
have tried many so called "solutions" an none have been successful.

Hi John,

Are you running ISA Server on your SBS box (Premium)? If so, check out
the
Microsoft KB at http://support.microsoft.com/kb/841664 (Clients may
receive
an "Error Code 500 Internal Server Error" error message when they try to
visit a Web site that you publish by using ISA Server 2006 or ISA Server
2004).

Also check out the M&M's site at
http://www.smallbizserver.net/Default.aspx?tabid=53&forumid=3&postid=12024&view=topic
and see if Mariette's suggestion helps.

Thanks,
Steve

I have re-configured a Small Business Server and now having issues
accessing
OWA. This is the message I recieve:
Error Code: 500 Internal Server Error. The target principal name is
incorrect. (-2146893022)

I have been trying to resolve this issue for days and have not found
the
proper solution. Any help would be appreciated.

THan ks,

John
