>>>                     ---------------------------------------
>>>                     1) CONFIGURE A SERVER AS AN RPC PROXY SERVER
>>>                             On my Exchange server (my ONLY
>>> one) I installed the RPC over
>>>                     HTTP component from the Add/Remove
>> Programs - Windows Components
>>>                
>>>                     2) CONFIGURE THE RPC VIRTUAL DIRECTORY IN IIS
>>>                             In Internet Information Services (IIS) 
>>> Manager, right-click the
>>>                     RPC virtual directory, and then click
>> Properties.
>>>                             In the RPC Virtual Directory

>>>                     Security tab, in the Authentication and

>>> Edit.
>>>                
>>>                             In the Authentication Methods

>>> box
>>>                     next to Enable anonymous access is cleared.
>>>                             In the Authentication Methods
>> window, under Authenticated
>>>                     access, select the check box next to

>>> over
>>>                     NTLM because of two reasons. First, RPC

>>>                                     doesn't support Kerberos.
>>> Second, if there is an HTTP

>>>                             Expand Web Sites, expand Default Web 
>>> Site, right-click RPC, and
>>>                     then click Properties.

>>>                
>>>                     6) Finally I changed my current OWA SSL ISA 2004
