RE: OWA and SP4
Title: OWA and SP4 The guy who installed OWA before my time (convenient, I get to blame someone else) installed it in a non-default directory. Apparently that was Ok until after I installed SP4 because OWA now tries to revert to the default directory and generates 404 errors for obvious reason. Thank you everyone for your help.

RE: OWA and SP4
Sounds to me like a DNS issue. Can you resolve the server's name from a command prompt?
