Configuring OWA on backend server?   
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?

HOw is it not secure?
OWA is running on your current backend Exchange Server in production
as we speak, I gurantee it.

Re: Configuring OWA on backend server?   
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.
