Did it ever work? Are both servers in the same site.
-----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, June 17, 2003 2:01 PM To: Exchange Discussions I'm having an "issue" with my OWA authentications (kind of like a "feature" in a product). I have two Exchange 5.5 SP4 servers, one running on WNT 4.0 SP6a, one running on W2K SP3. Both have all the Exchange post SP-4 critical updates and hotfixes installed. Both are running OWA right now, because for some reason, they abruptly stopped authenticating users on each other - in other words, each will only authenticate users whose mailboxes reside locally. They won't authenticate each other's users ("failed to get inbox"). I've fiddled with the directory permissions in IIS, and right now, have all three authentication methods selected on both servers, but it doesn't seem to affect this if I turn off NT authentication. It's a colossal pain, since I have a firewall port open specifically for OWA, and now that they're being buttheads, I have to have two ports open, and I have to make sure users know which URL to use. I realize that Exchange 2000 would probably help alleviate this, but we are not ready for Active Directory, and probably will not be for some time yet. Nor am I ready to single-handedly transition 2500 users right this minute. So I'm looking for advice, but hopefully not along the lines of, "why don't you just upgrade?" ;-) Thanks for any help with this.
