Kevin,

I seem to remember something about editing fwauthd.conf along the lines
of

443 in.ahttpd wait 0 eb:X

Where eb indicates that you want to use SSL on both sides of the
connection (Client to FW and FW to OWA server).  The X being the
friendly name of the certificate on the firewall. Not sure if this is
still relevant on NG AI though.

You definitely need to modify the settings as indicated earlier by Ray.
I actually though there was more than one change required but I have not
checked this.

Regards,
John

I don't think so.  I'll give that a try, but am not too hopeful.   Just
to give a bit more background,
this is Checkpoint NG BI R55 and Exchange 2003.   What I've got is a
rule that looks like:

[EMAIL PROTECTED] -> ExchangeServer -> HTTPS -> UserAuth

I've tried it with HTTPS protocol set both as HTTP and ENC-HTTP with the
same result.   When I try to make
a connection from an external browser to
https://exchangeserver/exchange, it comes back with
FW-1 Access Denied and in the fw log I see:

resource http://exchangeserver:80/exchange
reason: Content Security - access denied

I assume that the problem is that FW-1 is trying to make a regular HTTP
connection on port 80 to the Exchange server, which will only accept
HTTPS on 443.

This seems ridiculous to me... if you don't use SSL between the firewall
and the exchange server, then all of your user names and passwords are
being transmitted in clear text!
