Ok, will give it a go...tried to avoid KCD up until now as I hate SPNs
:)

Nope; you can "KCD" from almost any form of pre-auth.
I have it operating from a single listener that supports FBA as well as
Basic.
http://www.microsoft.com/technet/isa/2006/authentication.mspx is your
bible.

Jim,
Maybe I am being dense here, but isn't KCD specifically for when you are
using smartcard (ssl client certs) auth?
So if I am not using this form of auth, then KCD is of no use???

Probably semantics, but I am doing it with three rules:
? 1 for OWA using NTLM delegation (/OWA/*)
? 1 for OWA Legacy Folders using Basic delegation (/Exhange/*
/publix/* etc)
? 1 for all other Exchange connectivity using Basic delegation
(/rpc/* /autodiscover/* etc)
The other thing you need to check is that the right authentication types
are defined for the Exchange virtual directories on the CAS. One that
caught me out was adding basic to the EWS virtual directory...ISA nicely
logs this in monitoring though as a delegation failure J
All rules use the same listener...
Yep I agree about the /autodiscover as part the wizard, not sure this is
included...
Confused about the SRV solving all the issues - can you elaborate?
Cheers

Hi Jason,
OK, that makes perfect sense and it's the scenario I'm testing today.
One listener, one rule for Outlook Anywhere and one rule for
Autodiscovery, correct?
So I was right that you can't use the /AutoDiscover path that is
included in the Outlook Anywhere rule since the Outlook Anywhere rule
doesn't respond to the public name autodiscover.domain.com. The Outlook
Autodiscover rule would respond to autodiscover.domain.com and forward
to the /AutoDiscover path.
The SRV record solution will solve ALL of this complexity because it
will bypass the need for a second URL and second IP address and second
certificate. However, its a hotfix that you have to call PSS to download
and will be included with Office 2007 SP1.
Thanks!

Yep - one listener, two IPs, each IP assigned a different SSL
cert.
Not sure if the SRV record will negate the need for the
autodiscover URL and hence allow us to get away with a single SSL cert -
have to check this...

Hi Jason,
One Web listener, but two IP addresses are being used by the Web

Hi Tom,
Managed to get this working today too, although I am
using two individual certs on the same external web listener. The
internal cert on Exchange is SAN'd up and ISA publishes everything to
the internal cert common name irrespective of the public URL.
The key to most of it working is defining correct URLs
in Exchange where is defines "External URLs" for things like OOF, OAB,
EWS etc.
Now we have all exchange 2k7 services (and all the new
funky stuff) working externally...had to do a lot of it by investigation
and cobbling blog entries together, not ideal, but go there at last.
We currently have it working without SRV records, but
just waiting for the ISP to add these records to test if that is a
better solution...
Cheers

I'd think that Jim might need to update his SAN article.
The article implies that ISA doesn't support SANs on the Web listener,
however I have a guy who has the autodiscover FQDN as a second SAN on
the certificate bound to his Web listener and he's shown me strong
evidence that it actually works, even though it shouldn't.
I wish the Exchange or ISA UE teams could get it
together to explain how to get autodiscovery working correctly and more
importantly, show us how it works with and without DNS SRV records. It
looks like once you have DNS SRV records, its a no brainer.

OK, that's an interesting sentence in a
KB OL update article. But there's no mention of this anywhere else on
the ms.com site.
In addition, how do we configure the SRV
records?
Service?
Protocol?
Priority?
Weight?
Port number?
Host offering this service?
I try to read minds best as I can, but
I'm flailing on this one :))
