Subject: Front-end / back-end mailbox resolution

So this weekend we did a server consolidation, and I'd also like to be able
to do a name consolidation on what info we give our users.

We used to have:

server1.rootdomain.com and server2.rootdomain.com which were aliases to
server1.forest.rootdomain.com and server2.childdomain.forest.rootdomain.com
and now have a clustered back-end of cluster.forest.rootdomain.com and NLB'd
front-end of friendlyservername.rootdomain.com.

I have 3 servers listed in my ESM (frontendserver1 frontendserver2 and
clusteredserver).

rootdomain.com is a unix dns controlled environment.
friendlyservername.rootdomain.com has no entry in AD.

Everyone happily goes to http://friendlyservername.rootdomain.com for OWA,
and I'd like people to be able to put in friendlyservername.rootdomain.com
into outlook to setup their profiles ... But of course I get the "Outlook
could not log on.  Check to make sure that you are connected to the network
and are using the proper server and mailbox name.  The connection to the
Microsoft Exchange Server is unavailable.  Outlook must be online or
connected to complete this action."  

If I put in cluster.forest.rootdomain.com everything works fine, but damnit I
don't wanna do that.

This has to be possible; what have I done wrong?

Howie
