OWA 2000 simply does not work out of the box!!

[ashleym]

Has anyone who has setup exchange 2000, been able to get OWA working on their first try?

The documentation from MS on how to do this is virtually non existant and I am pulling my hair out trying to get it working through port 80 on a single server, but it simply won't work. The message I get it "the page cannot be displayed" and the MS KB article for this error has absolutely nothing to do with my problem.

Anyone?

Could be a DNS problem - is the logon.asp page actually on the server? Have you verbosely entered the URL or just the directory name without the file name?

I forgot to mention that I can get as far as neing prompted for credentials, but no matter what I enter, I get "the page cannot be displayed" I am doing this over port 80, I suppose it could be a permissions thing in exchange 2000 or IIS5, but as I said, Microsoft claims it should work out of the box, without any tinkering. I do not think DNS has anything to do with it since I am being prompted to enter credentials, I am obviously hitting the exchange server.

I have the same problem, and would be interested in hearing a response!

It asks for username/password, then the page cannot be found.
