is anyone else experiencing this?
I have a front end web server with owa running sp3 on both exchange and win2k. Every now and then when I log in to the server, I'll be clicking around - when I go to log off, it asks me for my login credentials.

 
Anyone? This happens every single time people log off now. You click the log off button and it asks you for credentials. HELP.
 
Found the answer I was looking for on deja
"Logging off from a Front-End SP2 Server Using Outlook Web Access Requires
Disabling Integrated Windows Authentication
Using Outlook Web Access while logging off from a front-end server running
Exchange SP2 may result in an incomplete logoff attempt. For example,
clicking Log Off in Outlook Web Access may result in a request to type your
network identification and password. However, typing valid network
credentials will not log you off the server. You must disable Integrated
Windows Authentication for the front-end server using Internet Services
Manager to completely log off using the Outlook Web Access client.

To allow an Outlook Web Access client to log off from a front-end server
running Exchange SP2

1. Click Start, point to Programs, point to Administrative Tools, and then
click Internet Services Manager.
2. Right-click the exchweb\bin virtual directory for the Default Web Site in
the console tree, and then click Properties.
3. On the Directory Security tab, under Anonymous access and authentication
control, click Edit.
4. Clear the Integrated Windows Authentication check box.
5. Click OK.
"

This is something mentioned in the release notes for SP2.
