Users cannot access OWA unless given logon access to all computers
This can't be right...Anyone know of a way around this? Prior to upgrading from Exchange 200 to Exchange 2003, I only had to give log on access to the Mail server. Without access to all computers I get the following error: "The Local Security Authority cannot be contacted"

Hi, 1. Would you please let me know whether it is a Front-End/Back-End environment? If yes, please add both the FE/BE servers to log on to restriction. 2. If you have ISA server configured, please also add the ISA server to log on to restriction 3. Whether the Form Based Authentication has been enabled on the Front-End Server. If not, please enable it and check the result. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Mike Shen TechNet Subscriber Support in forum If you have any feedback on our support, please contact tngfb@microsoft.com ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Thanks for your reply. I have an virtual Exchange folder our main website that redirects to our mail server. Form based authentication was not enabled. I don't know much about this, but was able get all the info I need to setup and configure SSL and Forms based authentication from here: http://www.petri.co.il/configuring_forms_based_authentication_in_exchange_2003.htm I found the following sites helpful in configuring OWA's logon.asp: http://www.msexchange.org/tutorials/Customizing-OWA-2003-Forms-Based-Authentication-Logon.html http://www.msexchange.org/tutorials/OWA2003Forms-based-Authentication-default-domain.html So now I'm back where I was before the upgrade to Exchange. Users can log in fine without being given "Access to all computers". I do still have to give the user access to the Exchange server. Any way around this, or should I be happy with the progress so far and shut up?
