Have you set up Host Headers on your web site?

I GIVE UP !!! and I have both Shinder books http://www.ISAserver.org Hi again What I have at the moment is to authenticate all incoming users, this is why I get the logon screen. However when I turn this off, then my external computer connects to the ISA server (I can see the session on ISA) but nothing happens for a few minutes then it returns an error. Usually TCP/IP processing error, but when I run IIS using anonymous loging (IUSR_EXCH user and password) then I sometimes get that the object is not there (or something similar). It just wont work externally. One thing that bugs me is that the server is called servername.local, while the OWA rule Action tab must say servername.com since this is the externally known DNS name. If I put servername.local as the referal server with servername.com in the destination set I usually get a hostname not resolved error. I have even tried with the local server IP address for the referal server then I get a TCP/IP processing error indicating the Internal server IP address. So the name in the action tab is obviously important. I think I have tried most combinations and I still get nowhere. I need to get this service running!
