I am trying to use a tool from PSS' ftp site called PFDavAdmin that is
designed to allow fairly easy access to public folders for the purposes
of correcting permissions etc.

The problem I'm having is that I can't successfully connect to my Public
folder store on the server.  Basically the UI asks for the name of the
server, the credentials to use, and whether to connect to Public Folder,
Mailbox, or Specific Mailbox.

When I try to connect I receive the following error:

* Start Error *
An error occurred while trying to establish a connection to the exchange
server. Be sure that port 80 can be reached.  If you are connecting to
public folders, be sure that the public store is mounted.  If you are
connecting to mailboxes and the progress bar shows a particular mailbox,
be sure that the user has at least one email address.

Exception: The remote server returned an error: (500) Internal Server
Error.
URL: http://myserver/ExAdmin/Admin/mydomain/public%20folders
* End Error *

I can access my public folders via web https://myserver/public with no
problems (other than certificate warning me that my short name doesn't
match the FQDN on the cert.

I also receive problems when I try to access Public Folder Permissions
via Exchange System Manager.

My cert matches an externally visible address, but doesn't match the
true FQDN of the server.  I have followed MS' certname doesn't match ...
Article but that doesn't help.

Server is Exchange 2K Enterprise with all latest hotfixes and services
packs, running on Windows 2000 Server.  Our external domain is
completely different from our internal domain so the cert matches the
external domain which is where most of my web users hit it from, but not
where I manage it from.

I have verified that Webdav is installed and appears functional, but
can't get off of dead center here.

Any thoughts?  I started trying to use the PFDavAdmin tools to see if I
could work around the Exchange System Manager issue, but I assume that
both issues are related.

Thanks in advance for any ideas!
