More stange OWA + pos fix

I'm trying to get OWA to work on a production SBS 2000 server with the
latest Service pack and critical security patches. This server had the IIS
lockdown tool installed about 13 months ago that I have now updated to the
latest version.



The problem is that on various Windows 2000 professional workstation and the
server itself all with IE 6 the OWA client will log straight in as the
logged in user without prompting for a login ID or password. If I enable the
new IIS Lockdown tool the OWA clients hangs and just displays 'Loading'.



I've tried about 10 different TechNut articles and all the setting appear
correct including the IIS lockdown tools ini file.



I've had similar problems on another 'non' production SBS 2000 server and
eventually resolved the problem by uninstalling the Certificate server, IIS
and Exchange then rebooting the server then reinstalling the whole lot. This
worked fine and even let me run the IIS Lockdown tool without breaking.



Does anyone know of a less drastic way of getting OWA to work in a SBS 2000
environment? Or is this as good as it gets?



Thanks in advance

Hi Paul,

Have you checked www.smallbizserver.net for OWA-issues and how to setup?

Hi Marina
Yes thats where I started!
I have also made sure that all off the Web page settings match up to those
of a system that works. i.e the one that I had to reinstall IIS and
Exchange.

Thanks
