OWA not working on Exchange 2003 SP2 on Win 2003 R2

[kleppis]

Hi,
We have a new exchange backend server, with win 2003 R2 and Exchange 2003
Sp2 installed. We've tested with a couple of "test" mailboxes on this server.
Outlook towards the server is working OK, but OWA does not seem to work.
We get the login screen, but after entering username and password three
times, we get "access is denied".
The new server is a backend server.
I've checked the IIS properties towards a BE server that's working, but the
settings appears to be exact the same.
Does anyone have a clue what the problem could be?
Could it be a Win 2003 R2 problem?
By the way,our other Exchange servers with SP2 are running on Win 2003 Sp1.

Best Regards
Bjorn

Can you access the maiulbox through outlook?

Connecting to mailboxes on the server using Outlook works just fine. I've tested this today.
