Can't Publish Owa 2003 on ISA 2006
Hi all,
i have a weird problem, i want to publish OWA on ISA 2006.
i have 1 exchange server 2003 and 1 ISA server as edge firewall.
i did all the steps listed on all forums regarding OWA publishing, i'll list them again step by step maybe i forgot something:
1- Backup the certificate from exchange and install it in the personal folder on ISA.
2- Create a HOSTS file entry for split-DNS style resolution.
3- Create Https Listener on both internal and external network.
4-Create the Exchange Web Client Access Publishing Rule.
5- i tried also this:
* Change Requests appears to come from the original Client in the To Tab
* Enable Require 128 Bit encryption for HTTPS Traffic in the Traffic Tab
* Navigate to the Listener Properties and select the Forms tab.
Under Password Management enable Allow users to change their Passwords.
Still no luck, keep in mind that i could easily publish exchange server, mail is working ok.
OWA is working fine also if u access the exchange directly from the LAN via IP or hostname.
i've been all the the day working on it, i tried all the settings.
I just need to know if i miss something? maybe i should create an access rule to open port 443 from the external network to Localhost?
any clue will help on this coz im running out of ideas.
thanks a lot

Do you have ISA SP1 installed?
If you are using someone else's guidance, such as isaserver.org, then I can't really help you. if you get to the point where you want to use the Microsoft approach then let me know - as it sure isn't what you describe in your initial post.

thanks keith, i exportedthe certificate right with the key, ill try the Microsoft way and ill tell what will happen.
OK - running the BPA is also a good tool - you can be surprised what is sometimes turned up.
Two simple questions:
1. What is the error you get when accessing owa web site from internet?
2. When you test the rule in ISA 2006, do you get any errors? I mean when you click "Test Rule" button in properties of rule, does ti report that isa can access exchange?
