Making your own certificate is ugly. Not that the certificate is hard to
create, but due to all the calls from your lusers that can't understand why
their browser is asking them to install an untrusted certificate into their
system. Anything that is labeled as "untrusted" sets off the panic alarm
with the lusers resulting in lot's-o-calls to the help desk. 

But SSL/OWA good. Encrypts data on the wire. Non-SSL/OWA bad. All data
(including authentication data) unencrypted on the wire.

Get yourself (or make yourself) a certificate and go with SSL.

Subject: Changing OWA Port


We out source our firewall management and the guy is recommending that we
move our OWA from port 80 to some higher port (in the 1000 range).  We only
have port 80 open for OWA since we don't run a web site from here.  Ahs
anyone else done this or have any other suggestions?
