Let me make you a HUGE reco buddy, anytime you have a client app(%$#T%$# Adobe....) or something else that's busting yo as_ cuz of perms, grab a hammer, and turn on Auditing. Fail the app, then find out why! That always works! Hammers just in case;-) jlc
-----Original Message----- From: Allan Muchmore [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, October 04, 2001 12:58 PM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: Reinstall/reset OWA for Exchange 2000 I have been going in circles with my OWA after it abruptly stopped working las week. In troubleshooting I am usually meticulous in noting changes to server settings. But in this case I likely have changed some permissions for folders or virtual folders that are now giving me grief (even if I solved the original problem). Is there a resource that has all the required permissions and settings for Exchange & IIS to make OWA function under Exch & Win 2000? I have spent time checking technet, MS KB, google, groups and this archive, so forgive me if I missed an obvious location. Is there a way to reinstall OWA without reinstalling Exchange? In case I might be closer to making it work than I think: My current status is that once logged in, all folders, contacts and calendars appear to be working, but are empty. This occurs regardless of whether it is a user or administrator, from an computer on the domain or outside of it, and both inside and outside our firewall. I've seen postings on various groups that mention this problem, and several good suggestions. But none have helped.
