Exchange AutoDiscover 401 Unauthorized on New SBS 2008 Install
Hi Experts,
I just complete a SBS 2008 install and have noticed that I'm getting some AutoDiscover errors in Exchange 07.
I used a GoDaddy SSL installed through wizard and manually imported the intermediate cert to correct intermediate cert store... pretty standard. The cert was issued to the FQDN remote.domain.com. Again... all standard. Not sure why I'm getting these errors?
Here's what I get back from PowerShell...

ml received the error The remote server returned an error: (401) Unau

Type : Error
Message : The Autodiscover service could not be contacted.
Is it possible that my new Zyxel firewall is misconfigured? Would there be something I need to set in there? I am getting onto OWA & RWW fine internally and externally and all Outlook clients seem to be connecting fine. What alerted me to the problem was the fact that our Vipre Email Security Spam filtering was not working correctly.... which led me to the AutoDiscover issues.
Thanks for the assist.

Have you tried testing from www.testexchangeconnectivity.com?
Testing AutoDiscover via testexchangeconnectivity.c
While running the "Setup Your Internet Address Wizard" I get "windows SBS 2008 cannot open ports 25, 80, 443, and 987". But I don't understand why it can't open the ports. I'm getting to all the services on those ports externally and internally (with the exception of AutoDiscover) just fine. So, what am I missing?

Follow Method 2 of http://support.microsoft.com/kb/896861.
It is a known issue and the above KB should help fix the issue.

Https://testexchangeconnectivity.com will not help unless you have autodiscover configured for external access.
Refer to http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb332063(EXCHG.80).aspx in order to get autodiscover working externally.
Unless you have configured autodiscover externally, any tests you perform for autodiscover using testexchangeconnectivity.c
Regardless, KB 896861 should help you fix the error noticed in "test-outlookwebservices | FL" cmd.

The Wizard is trying to open the ports on your router / firewall and unless it has uPNP enabled on the Router - it will have a hard time - so don't worry about those errors - that is quite normal. I always configure the router / firewall manually anyway - then I know what is going on.
Lastlostlast... I'm a little confused by KB896861... where it states to type the "Host Name or Host Names" for the sites that are on the server (method 1), is it looking for the FQDN ie, company.com or is it looking for remote.company.com or what?
Okay... thinking through this, it has to be remote.company.com it's looking for... so ignore my last post.

Not sure what the protocol violation its complaining about could be. Should I be concerned about the RPC delays?
