OWA and IIS5 Editing IIS5 to point to domain name /exchange

[devastator]

I need to do something in iis so when I go to

http://www.domain.com/exchange

it loads the owa. We have our website / domain hosted on our server with Exchange and instead of using the default location of OWA we would like to use the above...
Any ideas.....

Did you try a host header on IIS? I would think that would work. Dan

I just setup OWA with a FQDN and got there no problem. I need your error or whatever the problem is. All I did was add a DNS record and it worked fine. No other configuration. Is this 5.5 or 2000? I'm doing this on 2000. OWA on 5.5 can't touch 2000. Limited because of ASP to 300 hits and other things. GUI in 2k is way better also. Not trying to sell anything Dan

Fixed....

Ok, so this is what happened.

W3proxy.dll was running as an ISAPI extension in the default web site which filters out requests, and rejects all incoming connections. It only accepts the incoming connections after the Enable Web Publishing setting is selected (in the web proxy service). The default web site is the only site we host that was using W3proxy.dll as an ISAPI extension so all the other sites were not bound by the Enable Web Publishing setting of Web Proxy.

I also had to setup a virtual directory that pointed

http://www.domainname.com/exchange

to

http://external

ip/exchange. .

Thanks!
