Hi there

We have a Windows 2000 server which is part of a Windows 2000 domain running Exchange 2000 OWA on IIS 5.0. Our public folders and mailboxes are located on a separate server

Periodically, when browsing public folders I can successfully browse the public folder structure, but when I select to view a folder OWA reports: HTTP/1.1 503 Service Unavailable.

All mail related parts of OWA continue to work and after a few minutes I am able to view public folders again

I have checked the event logs, but can see no errors relating to this problem. We are running the latest Windows and Exchange service packs

Any suggestions appreciated

Thanks
Adrian
