Implementing OWA
I'm rather new to Exchange. Can someone tell me where I can find an easy to understand document on how to implement OWA for Exchange 2003? I just have the one exchange server but my web server is separate. From what I gather, OWA is automatically installed during the exchange install, however, when I type in https://<ipaddress>/exchange, I get page cannot be found. I also tried http://<ipaddress>/exchange. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

OWA is installed by default and you should be able to connect to http;//servername/exchange take a look in IIS manager and see if the default web site is started. the default web site could also be using host header names in which case you must use to be able to connect to Exchange Default web site could also be connected to a specific IP.

Yes, the default website is started. I don't believe the the site is using host headers. The default website is connected to a specific IP. I've compared our server with a working exchange (OWA) server and see no differences. I just get a page cannot be displayed error - even when I do https://<ipaddress>/exchange

is the W3SVC started, do you have any firewall running on the server (windows or other one)?

Nevermind. I did a simple reboot and now it works fine. I guess the www service just got hosed.
