Do I need to publish the Exchange server in order for this to work?  I have
followed all intructions to the letter but it still does not work.  I think
I am going to cry!

No I don't think so the concepts remain the same .. best of luck you should
fine .. remember when you get it done to test it you will need to use a
client that sits in front
or the outside of your ISA server to see if the published OWA service is
passing through to your internal exchange box.

I'll give it a whirl.  I am using Exch2k, will that make a difference?

If I understand your project, you are attempting to pass OWA through ISA,
your Exchange server version 5.5 I am assuming is the same server that you
have installed
the OWA web source on, if that is the case here, then the answer to your
question is YES, use your private IP address that you assigned your Exchange
server in your destination set, when you publish services on ISA, your ISA
server now responses to that service from the Public side and passes the
request to your internal published
service, basically hiding your internal server, in your case, your Exchange
server from the public, Why, because your OWA clients will request mail
services from your
ISA server now, but what your OWA clients don't know is that their service
request is really being answered by your internal hidden Exchange server.
That was the long
version to your answer which is Yes ...

I noticed in this article that when creating a destination set you enter the
Ip address of the web server.  My web server does not have a public address
but a private one, so should I enter the private address?  Currently my
destination set contains our FQDN for the external IP.  Confusion!!!

Ok, now I understand your configuration .. try to follow these instructions,
they come straight from Microsoft ... 
 
 

Outlook Web Access

You can also publish a Web server to allow Outlook clients Web access. In
this case, the Outlook Web server is published as a Web server - and not as
a mail server. This section describes how to publish a Web server to allow
Outlook clients access to their e-mail. 


To set up Microsoft Outlook Web Access (OWA), first use ISA Server to create
destination sets which should include the paths that are being published on
the Web server hosting OWA. Perform the following steps: 


1.      In ISA Management, click Internet Security and Acceleration Server,
click Servers and Arrays, click the applicable array, click Policy Elements,
right-click Destination Sets, point to New, and then click Set. 

2.      In Name, type the following as the name of the destination set:
OWA 

3.      Click Add, and then click IP address. In From and To, type the IP
address of the Web server hosting OWA. In Path, type the following, and then
click OK:
/exchange/* 

4.      Click Add, and then click IP address. In From and To, type the IP
address of the Web server hosting OWA. In Path, type the following, and then
click OK:
/exchweb/* 

5.      Click Add, and then click IP address. In From and To, type the IP
address of the Web server hosting OWA. In Path, type the following, and then
click OK:
/public/* 

Next, use ISA Management to create a Web publishing rule that publishes the
destination set. Perform the following steps: 


1.      In ISA Management, click Internet Security and Acceleration Server,
click Servers and Arrays, click the applicable array, click Publishing,
right-click Web Publishing Rules, point to New, and then click Rule. 

2.      In Name, type OWA Access Rule as the name of the rule, and then
click Next. 

3.      In This rule applies to, select Specified Destination Set, and
select the destination set named OWA. Click Next. 

4.      Apply the rule to Any Request, and click Next. 

5.      Select Redirect the request to this internal Web server. In
Destination Site, type the name or the IP address of the Web server hosting
OWA. 

6.      Select the Send the original header to publishing server instead of
the actual one, and then click Next. Be sure that the virtual Web site has
the same name that users from the internet connect to. 

7.      Click Finish. 

 
 
Good luck ..

Thanks but the document did not apply to my situation.  I have a win2k
server with exchange2k on the internal network protected by an ISA server .
I have opened Port 80 traffice in both ways on the ISA server but I still
get a 403 error when I try to access the site.

There are several Q documents published by Microsoft that detail the
procedures on running OWA through a firewall, it involves opening up some
additional
ports other than standard port 80.  Here is one of the DOC numbers ...

I have followed the instructions in Shinder's book to set up OWA on my ISA
server but the site does not come through.  Has anybody successfully done
this?  Anybody have a checklist of what to check on?
