In our production site we have Exchange on a backend server and OWA configured on a front-end server. Our disaster recovery site only has 1 Exchange box so I will need to put OWA on it. I'm not really comfortable doing that but I don't see any other options. Does anyone have any suggestions to make this scenario more secure?

I understand that, but I thought OWA requests were actually going through our front end server and somehow magically making it mo betta. So essentially you're saying it's no big deal not having a front end server at the recovery site and it's fine having everything running on one server. It just seems less secure.
