I was having issues of the Front End talking to the Back End server. I went
ahead and did a complete rebuild of that server, new name and new IP. I am
still unable to pull up a mailbox in our office. But if I pull up a mailbox
that is over in our remote office, it works. I get HTTP error 400 when
http:\\fe\exchange. The IIS logs or event viewer doesnt report anything. Both
servers are in the same network. Both have Exchange SP2. I applied some
recent security updates, nothing. I ran Exchange BPAT that is reporting minor
issues, nothing that would be related to this.
Any Ideas?

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

No SSL enabled. I did follow a document to reset OWA from msexchange.org same
results. We have 2 front end servers. They both can retrive any mailbox off
all the servers except the one i have onsite here. I can do a direct owa to
the exchange back server onsite with out issues.

I poked around some more and found a http error log in IIS, I see errors
80 HTTP/1.1 GET /exchange 400 - Hostname -

Do I need to modify the host name on that back end exchange server?

I found my issue. It appears on the main default website in IIS on the back
end, there was a null header value. I removed that, restarted IIS and it
started to work correctly. So now I am able to http:\\fe\exchange and it gets
the correct mailbox.
Thanks for all the input.
