Best way to set up OWA

[siddyp]

Morning,

I would like to set up OWA access for a couple of users in our company.

Only have one server, which is the domain Controller (W2K) and Exchange server (Exchange 2000). Our domain and web site is hosted by another company with the MX records pointing directly to the exchange server.

I have read a couple of articles which have lead me to believe that to have OWA running you need to have your website running locally, or have I read this wrong?

Please could someone point me in the right the direction i.e. knowledge base articles etc. that will help me get started. I'm not a total newbie with w2k or exchange 2000 but this seems to be going over my head a bit, and don't want to mess it up or worse open our network up to abuse.

Thanks in advance.

If MX records point to the Exchange server, you have mail.domain.com hopefully.

OK, CD in, tick the OWA box, finish, Windowsupdate, rerun latest Exchange SP and hotfixes.

Then open port 80 from the Internet to your Exchange box.

Job done...

Thanks for your reply. I have managed to get a logon screen for the email but when it tries to load the page it says "The page cannot be found"

Any ideas?

I am able to log on using administrator. Is thaere some service I need to add users to?

You need to modify your users records in AD to allow then dial in access as well.
