In the MS IIS or Proxy Ms. Management Console, make sure that you do not have any IP restrictions.
Make sure that your WEB site works on BOTH interfaces of your machine...
There are many things that could influence this... Is the OWA server inside or outside your proxy/firewall?
There is a good reading here:

(same, no spaces...)

I believe your problem resides on the authentication side. Unless you tell us how is it set-up, if it's using SSL and so on, helping you would be hard at this stage, however, 403 error means a permission problems. Have a look at :

(see if you can reconstruct the URL) for a list of common problems.

When your in the company you just connect using the computer name, when your outside the company you need to know the internet address (web address)
