Do you say that having *.local internally and *.com externally will make 
authentication problems?

I wonder how many people will answer this DNS question on Sunday? I know that 
Tom has been saying from day one to setup a Split DNS when dealing with RPC 
over HTTP, which is fine but I have hit a wall. What happens if the notebook 
computer uses mail.server.local as its exchange server entry point and the 
hosts file points to the external IP on ISA for this entry how does it work on 
the internal network when the person brings their notebook into the office? You 
can't add a .local to your public DNS. :-)

 

RPC over HTTP works flawlessly on my smoothrunnings.ca server now after I 
followed Microsoft's how-to's:

 

http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;833401

 

http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=884506

 

The trick will be to see how I can get both basic authentication and OWA-FBA 
working on the same IP address once I can figure out the .local issue.
