Hello all,
Okay so a bit of a background to what's running -
There are two servers (both running Windows Server 2012 R2 Standard) - one runs the Windows Essentials Experience role (because I find it useful) whilst the other is running Exchange Server 2013 SP1. The setup is small since there are only around six or seven
people that intend to use email and since I have the hardware and a licence for all the products, thought I would save some money and host exchange myself.
Since the whole setup essentially resides at a residential location, theres only ONE public IP address - so https://technet.microsoft.com/en-gb/library/jj200172.aspx?f=255&MSPPError=-2147217396 was used to set up ARR from the server running the essentials experience (1) to the server with exchange 2013 installed (2).
FOR THE LIFE OF ME I cannot get HTTPS redirect working properly. URL Rewrite has been tried, the standard HTTP redirect has been tried and even the error pages method (403.4 or something) was redirected from http://mail.externaldomain.co.uk to ttps://mail.externaldomain.co.uk/owa but to no avail.
Looking at the method of using ARR, are there any fundamental differences that should be noted when setting up the HTTPS redirect compared to a standard exchange install (which isnt set up via ARR and has multiple public IP's)? If so, what is the best method to proceed?
Would be grateful for any input on this!
