Hi

1 x Cas with OWA only and 1 x 2003 BE

Im trying to setup OWA and I have set the OWA redirect to https://.mail.com

This works once the user's mailbox is on the 2007 server.
If a user is on a 2003 BE - I get a page cannot be displayed HTTP and 404.
Before I set this up if I went to mail.com/exchange the user would get the
2003 page.
What am I missing?

Did you setup a redirect to (or configure the default web site to get its
content from) http://servername/owa ?  This won't work for E2003 users.

yes,
I had put in the following as a redirect -
<%
If Request.ServerVariables("HTTPS") = "off" Then
Response.Redirect "https://" & Request.ServerVariables("HTTP_HOST") & "/OWA"
End If
%>


What I want to achieve is that ALL users can access the same URL for webmail
before I do the migration.
This will also be an issue for me as i have 500 roaming users using
rpc\https

If you use /Exchange , rather than /OWA , then your OWA2007 users might
automatically be redirected to /OWA when the server works out that they have
a 2007 mailbox.  But you can't open a 2003 mailbox by going to /OWA , and
you won't be redirected to /Exchange (which is still the correct location
for 2003 mailboxes) either.

I just rolled this change back and now I cant access the legacy mailboxes by
using the /exchange
I get exactly the same error.
Is there an easy way to repair IIS back to default settings?

Well, I think the only change you made was to create your own default.asp
file to do the redirect.  Do you still have the original 'Under
Construction' default.asp available anywhere?

I removed and reinstall the CAS which was straight forward enough and backed
up the IIS!
