Exchange 2003 OWA / ISA 2006

[PRicho]

We have been using OWA via ISA 2006 for 3 years, but only recently has this issue appeared!

 

When you logon to OWA via the external access it authenticates fine, but if you click an email or use the left hand nav panel the FBA from ISA appears on the right hand side, the nav panal is still displayed, but you need to re authenticate to see the content. Like double authentication

 

It can work for 5mins.. but eventually it will require you to re authenticate... other times its more immediate. Adding it to the trusted sites in IE temporally fixes the issue so am thinking its an SSL issue? like many on here we use ipsca as our wildcard cert provider.

 

Wasnt sure if it was a bridging problem to our Exchange server as thats still on a cert assigned from our internal CA, ISA publishing rule forwards to the FQDN of our exchange server and the cert CN is the FQDN.

 

Cheers for any help!

I have seen this issue before. I solved it via resetting the virtual folders

 

How to reset the default virtual directories that are required to provide Outlook Web Access, Exchange ActiveSync, and Outlook Mobile Access services in Exchange Server 2003
