OWA tip 5

hads · Apr 3, 2002

Just something I thought of that I find useful and thought someone may like it. Feel free not to

If you put a page (default.htm) in the root of your exchange box running OWA like so:

<html>
<head>
<META HTTP-EQUIV="Refresh" CONTENT="0; url=http://mail.hads.tk/exchange">
</head>
<body>
</body>
</html>

Then your user will get the exchange logon by typing mail.xxx.com instead of mail.xxx.com/exchange (if your name is such)

It makes it that little bit easier to remember for some users out there.

Hads.

What I did was change the default web site in IIS to point to a subdirectory (/exchange). Same effect. Marc Creviere

There are many ways to do this but in my opinion, Hads way is the best because the iisstart.asp page can be overwritten by a service pack or whatever. This is definitely foolproof, simple, and only takes a few seconds to cut and paste.

I vote this to be a top notch tip.
