Outlook Web Access

I'm looking for help in setting up Outlook Web Access and general web access to a computer server and exchange.

Running Server 2008 with Exchange 2007 & IIS7.

Exchange works fine locally and I can log in remotely using the static IP/owa.although it does object to certificate which I ignore and progress past to OWA

I have also created a new FQDN A record using static IP to remote.domainname.com (48hours or more ago) now https://remote.domainname.com/owa resolves to what appears to be the same certificate error but when I try to continue I'm automatically forwarded to the Open DNS Search engine to resolve the FQDN.

I have a Binding to the FQDN.

Any suggestions gratefully accepted.

Microsoft makes a utility to migrate your accounts to the cloud. Are you having more DNS issues than anything else?
have you added the subdomain to your DNS provider? Who holds your domain name.

No other DNS issues. What is the MS Utility and where can I find it please......

I thought I had hence, the A record and if this hasn't worked why does remote.domainname.com/owa result in a certificate error?
well if you have made the change in YOUR dns (your local DNS server in your .com forward lookup zone) that will be picked up fine by a machine using your DNS server but a public machine needs to locate your server using your public domain host's DNS
