Exchange Front End Install trouble

I'm having trouble installing a Front End server. Here is my scenario: Both
servers are 2k3 Enter with 2k3 Exchange Ent and on the internal network. The
BE has been up and running for quite some time. Here is what I've done to
teh FE. Installed Exchange, Installed a SSL Cert, turned on Forms based
Auth, I have not turned any services off yet. My problem is when I
authenticate to the OWA\FE it displays the authentication screen again or
(depending on what I played with) says Page Can Not Be Dispalyed. Not sure if
I need to do something with the Virtual directories or what...
Please anyone.

Have you looked up your symptoms in the Microsoft Knowledge Base yet?

Does your back-end server require SSL? It can't.

I finally called MS for support... And your correct I had SSL on the BE and
had the wrong authentiction type elected for the BE on different Virual
Directories. THank you for your response
