RE: Can you run OWA 5.5 on W2k Server
just replaced an NT40/IIS4 OWA front-end server with win2k/IIS5 (still using Exchange 5.5 back end) and had no problems. Just the usual stuff to do - all the latest service packs, security patches, etc for all components. W2K is a member server in a n NT4 domain and it all seems to be fine. I used www.microsoft.com/technet/security/tools/iis5chk.asp as a starting point to bolt it all down. I think there are a lot of other (and better?) references as well to excellent docs for hardening that system - should find lots of discussion in the archives. Some gotcha's with following the general guidelines like this one if you're dealing with specific apps like OWA 5.5 - i.e. disabling parent paths in IIS (apparently the asp code in OWA 5.5 needs this -- it barfed until I re-enabled it). Otherwise no real issues -Original Message- From: Dan Yarrow [SMTP:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: February 5, 2002 11:59 PM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: Can you run OWA 5.5 on W2k Server Importance: High Hi Everyone I was just wondering if you can run Outlook Web Access on Windows 2k Server (IIS5).

Hi Dan, I run OWA on a Windwos 2000 member server in an NT 4.0 domain. No special requirements as far as I know, just latest service packs e.t.c. James. List Charter and FAQ at: http://www.sunbelt-software.com/exchange_list_charter.htm
RE: Can you run OWA 5.5 on W2k Server
yes I believe it is setup with a front end and backend configuration. Have you looked at the Technet site for info/white papers on this? I can't tell you how to do it as I am still running ex5.5 on nt4 and don't even have OWA setup on that. However from everything I have read on this list, improved OWA is the overwhelming reason why most people have upgraded to E2K. -Original Message- From: Dan Yarrow [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, 6 February 2002 12:59 To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: Can you run OWA 5.5 on W2k Server Importance: High Hi Everyone I was just wondering if you can run Outlook Web Access on Windows 2k Server (IIS5).

RE: Can you run OWA 5.5 on W2k Server
Oops ! I didn't read the subject line. I believe a number of members of this list are using the configuration you have suggested ( E5.5 on W2K) and running the OWA quite happily.I suggest searching the list archives to see what was said and where the information was found. -Original Message- From: Dan Yarrow [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, 6 February 2002 12:59 To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: Can you run OWA 5.5 on W2k Server Importance: High Hi Everyone I was just wondering if you can run Outlook Web Access on Windows 2k Server (IIS5).
