Setting up secure OWA access   
I have two servers.  One runs Exchange 2003, and the other host the IIS 
website.  When I type www.domain.org, It goes to the website.  When I type 
www.domain.org/exchange, it goes to OWA.  I went through the steps to enable 
OWA 2003 using our own Certificate Authority.  I configured the certificate 
authority on the Exchange server.  But when I try to access the website or 
the OWA site, using https://www.domain.org or 
https://www.domain.org/exchange, it will not let me through.  Do I have to 
setup SSL on the server that is the default IIS server as well?  One more 
thing, typing http://mail.domain.org takes me to the default website.

Re: Setting up secure OWA access   
This is what I followed when I created the certificate.  The certificate was 
created using the server that runs Exchange 2003.  After I activated the 
certificate, then I get the navigation blocked error page.   Since the 
organization webserver and the Exchange server are onseperate machines, do I 
need to have the certificate on both servers?  I am unclear about what to do 
next.

Thanks for your help.

Re: Setting up secure OWA access   
If it a self generated cert you will have to install the cert on the client 
machines that will be used, otherwise certificate errors (using IE7 will 
block you for example) will occur.

Re: Setting up secure OWA access   
You can get a trusted root cert from GoDaddy or elsewhere for $39 and 
upwards. This will negate the need to install your self signed one to all 
client machines.
