Outlook Web Access - Cannot access from the Internet

[ironclaw]

I am running exchange 2000 on a win2k server that has routing and remote access installed. I have also configured NAT on this box so that my private ip's can get to the internet. I can get to OWA from the private network, but cannot get OWA from the outside.

The MX record is correct on the outside DNS, and I can send and receive email. If I use Outlook 2000 throught the Internet, everything is fine.

Only the web access portion is not working.

I would appreciate any help.

Thanks

Make sure that you use service pack for exchange and also write

http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xx/exchange

while connecting.

First time I have not used any service pack and I was also facing similar problem.

Have you configured NAT to permit outside clients to get to your web server hosting the OWA pages?

Normally you'd only have to map ports 80 and/or 443 through your NAT.

Note that ideally you'd have Exchange on one server, OWA on a second one, and your NAT (or firewall) on a 3rd box.
