Can OWA be setup on an NT box with Exchange 5.5 sp2 installed and NT Proxy on the same machine? If so, would there be any problems with setting up Proxy server to allow adequate security whilst allowing access to the Exchange server

Exchange 5.5 OWA can be used on a Proxy server box, I do this myself. Though I do have Exchange SP3 installed I don't recall a problem with SP2.

I presume you are concerned about external access to OWA, as internal users can avoid the proxy bychecking the 'Bypass for local addresses' box.'

Externally OWA only requires port 80 to be open at a firewall, so I doubt Proxy is going to filter that out. However, if you are using Proxy Server as an public firewall on your Exchange Server, you have much bigger problems than this to worry about!

Hope this helps.
