RPC over HTTP configuration issues

I am trying to setup RPC over HTTP on my Exchange 2003 (single server setup)
I have followed the instructions from http://www.petri.co.il/how-can-i-configure-rpc-over-https-on-exchange-2003-single-server-scenario.htm.

When I run the test https://www.testexchangeconnectivity.com
I get to the point when it tries to ping 6001 Attempting to ping RPC endpoint 6001 (Exchange Information Store) on server exchange01.contoso.local.
The attempt to ping the endpoint failed.
I allowed for port 6001-6002, 6004 to route the traffic to my exchange server.

Any ideas?

Double check to make sure you installed the services. Add/Remove Programs - Networking Services - RPC over HTTP Proxy.

To all that have replied:

1: RPC over HTTP has been enabled:

2: My SSL cert is valid one from Verisign and it has been working with my Active Sync fine and the IIS URL does not match my external URL

3: I manually created the ValidPorts:
exchange01:6001-6002;exchange01.contoso.local:6004;Webmail.contoso.com:6001-6002;Webmail.contoso.com:6004

Here was my first mistake.
3: I manually created the ValidPorts:
exchange01:6001-6002;exchange01.contoso.local:6004;Webmail.contoso.com:6001-6002;Webmail.contoso.com:6004

I ran the tool and then reran the online test saw that it was failing at the NSPI part.
So it was a two deal issue.
It turned out that the Service\NDTS\ value {ncacn_http:6004} was never created.
Once I created this key everything started to work smoothly.

I am not sure why I never implimented this prior.

Thanks all
