I have installed certificate services on a server running Windows 2003 and
Exchange 2003. The certicate seemed to install successfully and I applied it
to the virtual directory Exchange in IIS. However I am now unable to connect
using OWA and my mobile devices stopped functioning. Am I missing a final
important step or is because I am trying to use this service whilst only
having one exchange server rather than the front-end, back-end scenario that
is recommended? Any help wuld be appreciated as I am wary of carrying on
using OWA with http://.

What's the error when you view your OWA url via https?

Have you installed the cert in your machines certificate store?

Hi, when I attempt to view OWA on the LAN the http page says 'There is a
problem with this websites security certificate' this allows me to carry on
but at my own risk. I haven't installed the cert on any machine except for
the server, is this my error. Regarding outside the LAN I believe my error is
not opening port 443 on the router. Of course I won't be able to test this
until I go through the whole process of installing the certificate services
back onto the server which I plan to do soon, but any inout would be
appreciated.

Thanks

Hi,

Yeah it is - if the server isn't issued from a certified root authority then
you must place your self signed cert in the trusted root for each client
machine.

Thanks for the quick reply. Will I also have to download the certificate to
my mobile devices. They use Windows Mobile 5.0. If I do, would you know where
I can find a reference for this. Thanks

sorry another question. When I first created the certificate I installed the
url that would be used on the WAN. Does it matter that the url is different
internally.

Not if you can route internally to it no.
