Configure RPC over HTTP when not on LAN

[rathcoffey]

Hi there

Is there any way to configure an Outlook client to connect using RPC over HTTP without having to log on to the LAN?

Thanks

Yes.

The main drive behind RPC over HTTPS is the ability to access exchange remotely while still providing all the functions found in Outlook.

Thanks Andy

What I need to know is if I have a user who is remote and has never logged onto the LAN, can that users client be configured to use RPC over HTTP?

Yes.

As long as the client PC is XP and has Outlook 2003 (plus a bunch of hotfixes). It's no differnet from doing it locally on the LAN.
