You need another IP address for your non-Microsoft-firewall to map to
the exchange 2000 server (NAT). Or you can use an alternate port (PAT -
port address translation) if you can't come up with another IP address.

 

It will not be seamless. To make it seamless requires a front-end
server.

Subject: [ExchangeList] OWA options with 2nd Exchange server at
different site

 

My previous question on this topic caused some confusion, so here is
another go:

Previous environment: 
x1 Exchange 2000 Server on Windows 2000 Server SP4

Current environment: 
x1 Exchange Server 2003 SP2 on Windows Server 2003 R2 - OWA, Outlook RPC
over HTTPS 
x1 Exchange 2000 Server on Windows 2000 SP4 - brought out of
semi-retirement with recently migrated mailboxes from a different
Exchange org.

External email access traffic flow:

Internet
|
v
A firewall from a non-Microsoft vendor - HTTPS/443 & SMTP/25 open 
|
v
ISA 2004 SP2 - OWA & Outlook RPC publishing to Exchange Server 2003
|
v
Exchange Server 2003 - OWA, Outlook RPC over HTTPS
|
v
Corporate WAN 
|
v
Different site - same AD, same Exchange org 
|
v
Exchange 2000 Server with mailboxes

What options would I have for the Exchange 2000 users to access OWA from
the Internet?

Thanks,
...D
