Hello,
I have inherited a exchange 2007 server configuration in my job role and I want to provide OWA to users of our corporate network. I have setup the OWA and it works fine internally also I registered a domain name and purchased a valid digicert san certificate to use for access. My problem is when I see all the info on the web about hosting OWA they all say to have a front end server in place with ISA to access the backend server. We do not not use ISA on the network it is secured through a watchguard firebox and I can configure it to allow incoming connections through a https proxy or https filter straight into our exchange server using the HTTPS://mywebsite.com, this works fine and so does the certifcate I can access the web interface and see the OWA email. My concern is as the exchange server is hosting the internal mail system and the OWA on the same server is this is a secure way to provide the connection or should we have another server in place to provide this connection, as I say I am making our only exchange server public facing through the firewall.
Thanks,
Paul.
