Question : Exchange 2003 OWA Issue

I have a weird issue with Exchange 2003 OWA (we only have one Exchange server) all of a sudden.

From outside of network:

-http://email.domain.com/exchange (page not found)
-http://publicip/exchange (page not found)

I can ping the public name and ip without issue.

From inside the network:

-http://email.domain.com/exchange (works and I can login.. maybe unrelated, but on IE7 the folders do not load and I get a script error. I have no issues with IE6).

-Right click browse on exchange virtual directory within IIS (works without issue)

Rebooting the server has not helped. I do see the "System cannot find the path specified" error on the exchange virtual directories that refererence \\.\BackOfficeStorage". I know the paths are correct. I have also heard the ""System cannot find the path specified" is normal if the IIS services start before the Exchange services.

Nothing has changed on the firewall.

Thoughts?

Answer : Exchange 2003 OWA Issue

I find that EXBPA always flags that.
It looks for a certificate on https://domain.com - why I do not know.

Ensure that anonymous authentication is enabled on the /exchweb virtual directory in IIS Manager.

Although if it works internally but not externally then I would start looking at the firewall.

Simon.
