Yes. 

 

I have two sites setup exactly step by step with the exception that one
is a .ca and the other is a .local by default. The .ca site works
flawlessly, while the .local doesn't; it's almost worth calling
Microsoft and inquiring why the .local doesn't work but the client wants
to buy a new all-in-one server and run most of this machines on GSX
Server so they will get the change to reinstall DNS as a .com.

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.
