Ladies and Gents,

Just wanted to let you know that the problem appears solved...

Here's all I did...  Went into IIS admin and removed my SSL cert from
the site...  Stopped and restarted the default web site...   PF
properties were again available in ESM...

Reinstalled my cert into the default site but made sure NOT to force SSL
on the entire site (even though I'd turned this off after the fact
previously, it didn't seem to make a difference)...  Force SSL only on
the Exchange subdirectory and everything appears to be operating
correctly...  OWA still forces the secure channel and I can still get to
PF properties in the ESM...

Thanks again to Chris for responding on a Sunday.. 

Now it's time to look into the next problem (Can't manually restart the
Exchange Event service, EventID:5 with error 0x80004005, any takers?
MSKB 265397 wasn't the answer....)  Guess I'll post another message in
the morning if I can't hunt it down.

Hope everyone had a good weekend.

If you have time to do it twice, 
you had time to do it right in
the first place.

Chris,

Thanks for the response on a Sunday...

My SSL cert is for webmail.namfg.com, which isn't the server's 'real'
FQDN (or AD name)...  Webmail is more user friendly than the server's
real name.. I do have a DNS entry for the "webmail" address both
internally and externally, and OWA does work properly...  Would that
cause the problem?

I could remove the cert (it's only a temporary cert for testing, I
didn't pay for it yet)...  Question I'd have then is how can I address
the server as "webmail" on the internet if I've got to have the cert
named with the real/AD FQDN of the server?  Would I have to go to a
FE/BE solution instead of running everything off one machine just to
have the friendly name?

Sounds like you've tried most of the recommended solutions (does your
SSL
certificate match the server's FQDN BTW?). The only KB article which
dealt
with Exchange also appears to have been pulled, so if you call into PSS
on
this one, I thin you'd have a > 80% change of having the issue be
non-decremented when all is said and done. But since it sounds like
you've
tried everything the general wisdom suggests, PSS is the best next step.

BTW, well written query and excellent detailing of the steps already
tried.
Should save people from suggesting a bunch of things you've already
tried.
