Great last name... OK...I reset the password. No workie.
[EMAIL PROTECTED] works inside the firewall. [EMAIL PROTECTED] logs into his machine at home, and then tries to authenticate in, and constantly gets asked for the password, and it doesn't take. Home account is using a 2Kserver box with a registered domain as the login. Messenger says that the home account login doesn't have the permission to use the email account, and asks for the proper password. Should work...doesn't.

Exchange 2000 IM doesn't use NTLM auth. [1] You have to make the decision if you want to allow that yourself. It's just the action need to be done to use Exchange IM from outside a firewall. <Siegfried /> > -----Original Message----- > From: John Weber [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Friday, March 22, 2002 8:31 PM > To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues > Subject: RE: Instant Messenger Service > > We fixed the issue with the XP side by installing the setup from the e2k > cd.
