OWA-NOT WORK   

Dear All, 

The main thing which i wat to do is:- 

1. i want to establish OWA for my External user. 
============================================================================== 

I have the following :- 

1. i have only 2 domains ( mailserver ) & ( webloc), in the same Network. 
2. both domains have 1 DC in each . 
3. Exchange server is installed on the First domain only ( Mailserver ). 
4. Our web site is only installed on the other domain ( Webloc) and its on 
the 
IIS 5.0 on the DC of the seconde Domain. 
5. on the second domain, there is a publish Rule which is maping only the 
Real 
IP- Address for web site to that Domain Controller of the second domain. 
============================================================================== 

what we need is, only on the second domain , i want to create Virtual 
Directory to map to the Mailbox of the users on the First doamin on the 
exchange . so when any one type : http://www.xyz.com/mail he will see his 
e-mails. 

i did the virtual directory , but with some notes:- 

1. i found that from the second domain - Not from the first domain-, i found 
i 
am able to access the first domain, then access the 
exchange server which is located on the domain controller. and also on the 
first domain, i can see the second domain and access the shared folder. 

2. both DC, on the same Network and they can Ping each other. 

3. on the first domain, when i was try to give Permission to this folder, 
ifound that , i cant see at all the second domain and also it happen on the 
first domain. 

i check on the Active directory Domians & Trust, i found that on both domain 
controllers there was nothing at all, no Trust at all, and howver i can see 
the other resources on both servers !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 

on the second domain controller , on its IIS, the Virtual 
Directory which has been created by me and map it to the MBX folder on the 
exchange server on the first domian , i found there is a 
red circule indicate that there is Error on that virtual directory, i do not 
know why ??? 

but i found that, we are unable to put the user name & Password and always 
display ( you are not authorized ) & sometimes ( Page cant be found ). 

so, what is happen, how can we solve this? 

============================================================================== 
as i understood, OWA working with this way,:- 

( Microsoft OWA, is tightly integrated component of Exchange server 2000. its 
used by Remote Home & external users, OWA Provide web browser access to the 
E-mails, Calander , contacts and all the Information stored in Microsoft 
exchange Storage System Folder). 

so, How can i implement OWA, if the Exchange server installed on another 
domain, and the IIS which is only Published is located on onther Domain ? 
Can you please Help me ?
