I am implementing OWA for my company and have a Win 2000 Server machine set up with Exch 5.5 SP3. OWA works ok from within the company (obviously :-)), but I cannot think how to get to the server from say home for example. When I type in the address www.domain.co.uk/owa-server/exchange, it says Cannot find page. We have a Checkpoint firewall and MS Proxy 2.0. I really am new to both of these and do not know where to look. Do I need to change something on one or both of these? Any help at all would be gratefully received.

Thank you.

Have you tried going to the ip address instead of the DNS name ie: http://1.1.1.1/exchange ? Try this from the server running owa. Then you'll know if it is an owa problem or an access problem (read proxy server or the firewall). Does it work from inside your network? If so, the proxy server may be blocking access to the page, or more than likely the firewall. Pull the firewall out of the equation and see if that helps, if so, just open up the ports owa needs and you'll be good. IF you can bypass the proxy server as well, try to access owa without anything in the way. Also, Microsoft doesn't support Exch 5.5 on win2k anymore.

FYI, Exch 2000 OWA works great if you are in a position to switch.
