I just wanted to drop everyone a note since I work with beta testing and hopefully save you all some time in the future.
Currently with Windows 2003 sp1 rc2 there is a cluster problem that occurs related to Exchange that does not allow OWA access until an Admin account loggs in, this is an exchange related issues and will not be fixed until Exchange sp2 however there is currently a patch that can be applied to fix this issue. kb841561
http://www.kbalertz.com/kb_841561.aspx2. There has been a change related to IIS and redirections with exchange, if you change your redirect for testing and attempt to change it back it changes your url to /exchange/exchange and the resolution to this is the following script
** not running this is use at your own risk ** but this is provided by MS and should be present in a KB soon
adsutil set w3svc/1/root/httpredirect "/exchange,CHILD_ONLY"
adsutil set w3svc/1/root/exchange/http
redirect "!"
I hope this saves someone sometime later on
