RPC over HTTP question

[HessA]

I've found a couple guides some linked from here some from google searches etc. But they either include a type of server I don't have or they are incomplete.

I have this configuration I want to add RPC over HTTP to:

Single 2003 Enterprise Server that is a DC
Single Exhchange 2003 Enterprise Server


My understanding is I need to add the Cert Services on the DC and install the certificate etc. (I get to the point of trying to go to

http://myserver/certsrv

and I can't view the page)

Then I'm a little unclear where to go from there. I have a pretty good walk through on this but it talks a lot about ISA Server 2000 which I am not running.

By the way I'm not too lazy too read if somebody has a link that fits my scenario better than what I have.

Thanks in advance,

Right then. Go through this:

http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=833401

and do it carefully. You will see that the article talks about a single box handling all things. You can use this to configure the one server that has Exchange looking at another box that's a DC. It's not a big article to go though, it just looks a lot.

As for the certificate, that's the big one for RPC over HTTPS. See:

http://www.msexchange.me.uk/rpchttpsproblems.htm

to understand why the problem with local certs happens and what to do about it.
Also see

http://www.google.co.uk/search?sour...06-08,GGLR:en&q=windows+certificate+authority

for what to do about getting a cert service up and running.

This is my favorite walkthough on that topic:

http://www.petri.co.il/configure_rpc_over_https_on_a_single_server.htm

It covers setting things up on a single Exchange 2003 server.
