sbs 2008 owa
We just finished a migration from server 2003 with exchange 2003, to sbs2008. I cannot get owa working. IT says the site should be https://sites/owa. It works internally no problem.
How do i create a page just using http: instead of https: we do not have a certificate.
Also how do i configure the cisco router to forward the request to the new server? we have http forwarded but not https.

The default with SBS 2008 is:
https://remote.yourdomain.com/owa
You can also use remote web workplace and access OWA from there
https://remote.yourdomain.com

The following outlines setting up internet access. The default "remote.yourdomain.com" is set unless you chage it under "advanced settings" in #7

Also we completed the migration but the blue window continually pops up saying complete sbs 2008 migration. I am confused why it is popping up as we recieved the migration complete message origianlly. Is there another step?
Not sure why that would keep popping up at this point. I would run the SBS 2008 BPA which should point out any problems or incomplete steps:

OKay, I got owa up and running thank you.
I cannot see "Connect to a computer" from the outside though. I can only see it from the inside why?

You require the certificate and to be using Internet Explorer for Connect to a Computer to function.
Hope this helps.

what address should the certificate be created for?
we created one for email.mydomain.com already.
OWA works with that cert.

I always create my certificate for remote.domain.com.
Best practice is to not change that name.

Most common reason to change it is if there is an existing external DNS record in place that is difficult to change. Otherwise I agree, use the default Three rules of SBS:
ALWAYS use the wizards
install all components whether you plan to use them or not
use defaults whenever possible.
