What are you using for the URL?  Sounds like your IIS config is not correct
if you get prompted prior to getting a web form.  To get to the form, you
need to have anonymous SSL access to that page.  From there, you would have
to authenticate.

Hi All
 
Further to my post I forgot to say. I have enabled  forms based
autenticationas as in the relavant part of TechNet article 830827. It has
made no differnece. Could this be a firewall issue?
 
I am just totally stumped now. Any help gratefully recieved.
 
Regards,
 
Paul Lemondis.

Hi all
 
I think I know the answer to this but just need to know if I am correct and
what to do if I am. I am guessing and I must admit it is a guess at this
stage that this is something to do with forms based authentication.
 
I have setup a test Windows\Exchange 2003 box on a test network behind a
different firewall to our normal network (the test firewall is a Watchguard
Soho box) with an MX record pointing to an address in our external subnet
which is duly assigned as the external address of the SOHO box. Hence the
test box can send and receive mail fine on its test MX record. 
 
All the changes for full SSL based CA web access have been implemented. The
OWA interface works with one exception. Instead of getting the nice Exchange
2003 page when I first go to the site I just get a logon box and nothing
else as in Exchange 5.5. After logging on all is fine. What, if anything,
have I done wrong and how can I correct this please?
 
Many thanks in advance.
 
Regards,
 
Paul Lemonidis.
