OWAccess problem w/ login

By mcse2k ·
Hi,

I'm about to take over administration of our Exchange 5.5 Server in our 300+ user IP network. I'd like to try and eliminate this issue before taking over the job completely so as not to inherit some "unsolvable" problem and then catch the blame when the system crashes. Thanks in advance for your help. Here they are: We use the Outlook Web Access- OWA so that our users may access from anywhere via IE browser. There seems to be a problem with access through most outside ISPs. Access from w/ in the building is not a problem. After we reboot the server, all access is restored for maybe a week or so but after that period users are unable to connect, they get to the domain login and enter the username, password, domain then submitand they get the box back with a clear password screen. Then it just continues to loop. Any Ideas?

Thanks,
Jeff

In a recent position I had a similar problem. It was solved by the remote users placing a lmhosts file pointing to the domain servers.

If you have a firewall, are the ports assigned correctly?

I had a similar problem before and it was from the permissions being screwed up on the url cache folder on my proxy server. Since OWA uses IIS I would check the permissions in IIS and make sure that the clients have at least read access. Hope this helps point the way.
