It's been awhile, but I seem to recall that with OWA 5.5, the OWA server
is always going to try to poll the directory on the first server in the
site to establish which server the requested mailbox resides on. When
the first server is down, it obviously can't respond and OWA fails.

Joe,
I am familiar with that KB article and ironically enough I am at
the
end of that process. I stopped the serivces on the old server to make
sure that everything had transfered over to the new server correctly
before I removed the first server. The only thing that stopped working
was OWA. Do you think I should just remove the old exchange server and
see if this resolves the issue?
If I try to access OWA from the internal network I get the same
error
message. Thanks again, Scott.
