-------------------------------------------------------Also try some of these 
suggestions from a Dec thread about someone who
had the same issue.

If you have L3 switches, you may want to check your VLANs settings, and
then have a laptop, and plug it to the same VLAN where the FE server is
plugged, and see if that works Then try it again using the same laptop
but from a VLAN where BE servers plugged, then one more time with the
same laptop from a VLAN where no FE and BE server are plugged.
The reason I am telling you this, because it sounds like a network
problem, so I'd suggest that you don't make any changes in your EX
server to reduce the variables.

Make sure you have no firewall software, popup blockers, or spy ware
blocker on the laptop that will be used for testing.

Hope things work for you

http://www.MSExchange.org/

thanks for ur reply. i dont think that it is afirewall prob since the
same problem even when accessing the front end within the intranet,that
is using the internal ip without passing through the organization's
firewall. and the iis log,no error is appearing,onle a repeat for the
request until u close the session. this is realy annoying !!!

Subject: [ExchangeList] FE/BE- cannot access multiple BE servers

http://www.msexchange.org
-------------------------------------------------------
Hi,

This is probably pretty stupid but...

We recently added a second Exchange server to our network.
The network now consists of:
2 x BE servers
1 x FE server in the DMZ

The two BE servers are in different Sites but the same domain.
The FE server is in the same Site as the first BE server.
I can still access user mailboxes on the first BE server from OWA.

I would like to access user mailboxes on the new BE server, however,
when I attempt to log in I receive the error:

"
You could not be logged on to Outlook Web Access. Make sure your
domain\user name and password are correct, and then try again.
 "

And am returned to the empty login prompt.

I have tried using Domain\username and just <username> to no avail.
I have configured the firewall between the FE server and the new BE
server to match the sttings for the old BE server so the firewall should
not be an issue.

Any thoughts/advice would be appreciated.

Adrian
