just installed exchange 2003 (mail.mydomain.com) on my network to migrate from exchange 2000 (serv2.mydomain.com) . I moved a mailbox to the new exchange 2003 to see if everthing works. I also had my ISP add an MX record. I was able to gain access to the login screen using the mail.mydomain.com address but something is preventing me to access the OWA. But I don't know what Exchange or IIS settings is preventing access to the OWA. Everything else works except for that aspect. Can someone tell me what I have to adjust?? I want to keep both exchange servers online until the migration is complete.

Thanks

What happens when you try to get to OWA? Do you get a "Page cannot be displayed"... or some other error?

am not running a FE/BE setup this is my DNS settting internally

mx record for serv2.mydomain.com (OLD Exchange 2000 server)

mx record for mail.mydomain.com (NEW Exchange 2003 server)

Host (A) for mail == 10.0.0.23
Host (A) for serv2 == 10.0.0.31


mail Alias(CNAME) == mail.mydomain.com

everything works when I try this on my network. But if I try it from home then it does not work.

I wander if it's my firewall setting? or something I forgot to tell my ISP?
