Cannot Access OWA from inside the networkHi All,
We are running Exchange 2007 on a dedicated box, with a separate Win2003 DC server. Mail is running fine, and so is access to OWA from outside the office. For some reason, we cannot access OWA using the external FQDN (https://mail.domain.com/owa) from inside the office. Can anyone tell me why? FYI, the internal FQDN of the mail server is mail.domain.local) Thanks Show quote

is the error: Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage Most likely causes: You are not connected to the Internet. The website is encountering problems. There might be a typing error in the address. What you can try: Check your Internet connection. Try visiting another website to make sure you are connected. Retype the address. Go back to the previous page. More information This problem can be caused by a variety of issues, including: Internet connectivity has been lost. The website is temporarily unavailable. The Domain Name Server (DNS) is not reachable. The Domain Name Server (DNS) does not have a listing for the website's domain. If this is an HTTPS (secure) address, click tools, click Internet Options, click Advanced, and check to be sure the SSL and TLS protocols are enabled under the security section.

You say that you have internal DNS
records pointing that host name to the internal IP address, but are your computers actually being configured to use your internal DNS server for lookups? Try running ipconfig /all to make sure.

Internal or external. There's only one thing I can think of that would override queried DNS, and that's a HOSTS file. Have you checked that?

It is a DNS issue. And by the way I HATE DNS. Your
INTERNAL DNS should point to the internal address whan you ping owa.mymailserver.com.from the inside. Be sure to go to a command prompt and go ipconfig /flushdns between tries. You say your external DNS is right whether it's yours of your provider has it. I should be able to ping owa.yourmailserver.com and come up with the correct external IP address. Not necessarly a ping reply because many admins cut ICMP off these days, but it should resolve. Verify for us, there are 2 DNS servers. One internal inside the firewall and one either you control with a public IP or your provider has control of. Tango Yes. It has itself listed as 192.168.1.4 as the primary DNS server

Internal or external. There's only one thing I can think of that would override queried DNS, and that's a HOSTS file. Have you checked that?

You need to set up a split DNS. In your internal DNS, create a new zone by the name of your public domain name. Create a 'A' record in that zone called 'mail' and set the IP address to your INTERNAL Exchange server address. That way when you request mail.domain.com form inside the LAN, DNS will always return the internal address. =?Utf-8?B?Y2lyY3VsZW50?= <circul***@discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in Show quote news:DDC461B0-34B9-4C8A-8F33-3F328513B9FF@microsoft.com: > The public address. > > Thoughts? > > "Lee Derbyshire [MVP]" wrote: > >> Which IP address is returned if you try to ping mail.domain.com from >> the LAN?
