Bummer. Sounds like another MS "Get Smart" innovation - "Missed it by THAT much"...
-----Original Message----- From: Siegfried Weber [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, June 12, 2002 3:35 PM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: Force Logoff of OWA The Logoff *button* which has been added to OWA 2000 in SP2 (and no postSP2 fix)? It does *exactly* the same as on OWA 5.5. It displays a logoff window telling you to close *all* IE windows. If you have more than one IE window open IEPLORE.EXE will not unload from memory and you can get back into the same mailbox without getting an authentication dialog. Almost all Internet kiosks or cafe's have, if they run IE, it configured that you cannot close the browser. In this case *anybody* can open your mailbox *without* getting asked again for user & password if s/he knows the url to your mailbox. <Cheers:Siegfried runat="server" /> > -----Original Message----- > From: William Lefkovics [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Thursday, June 13, 2002 12:30 AM > To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues > Subject: RE: Force Logoff of OWA > > I attribute that to poor English. <g> > > Using the alleged Logoff button (mostly aesthetics as I understand it) > added in E2K sp2, iexplorer.exe holding the OWA session terminates in > Windows2000 and .Net. > > > -----Original Message----- > From: Siegfried Weber [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Wednesday, June 12, 2002 3:23 PM > To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues > Subject: RE: Force Logoff of OWA > > > Can you explain what is "post-sp2 E2K logoff"? > > <Cheers:Siegfried runat="server" /> > > > -----Original Message----- > > From: William Lefkovics [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > > Sent: Thursday, June 13, 2002 12:19 AM > > To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues > > Subject: RE: Force Logoff of OWA > > > > Please help here, Siegfried. > > > > If I use the post-sp2 E2K logoff in OWA2000, it terminates > iexplore.exe > > (IE5 and IE6 on Windows2000 and Windows.net). > > > > William > > > > > > -----Original Message----- > > From: Siegfried Weber [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > > Sent: Wednesday, June 12, 2002 2:54 PM > > To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues > > Subject: RE: Force Logoff of OWA > > > > > > Pardon when I jump n here, William.
