Shot in the dark and I haven't got my IIS servers in front of me but is the bit that says 'How many users should this site be optimised for' not set to somehing silly like less than 10 or something...?

Two-field prompt. OWA worked without a glitch for more than a year before we applied SP2. Certainly we NEVER had this problem. SP2 fixed a whole bunch of important things but it sucks that it seems to have introduced this problem. I restarted the server last Friday and it worked fine until late this afternoon - started doing the same thing, rejecting the password. It prompts three times, then displays "UNAUTHORIZED" as if you entered a wrong password. I use http://servername/exchange Actually, I even tried going directly to the server's console, the IIS Manager and right-clicking on Default Web Site/Exchange and choosing Browse. Stopping/starting the Default Web Site does not help Stopping/starting the WWW service does not help I restarted the IIS Admin service (which bounced everything else) and that helped. I have a feeling that the server starts behaving this way after too many hits. In the middle of the day it has close to 500 active concurrent connections. But on the other hand, the CPU and Memory do not show any signs of stress at all. No errors or warnings in the Event logs.

If this is the default website, can you get to http://servername? Are you logging in with the UPN name or domain\username and password? I think we need a little more information as to what exactly you are seeing in the browser? If it prompts you 3 times for authentication, does it return a 401.3 or something similar?

No errors or warnings in the logs. Simply all of a sudden users are not able to log in. -----Original Message----- From: Andrey Fyodorov [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, March 14, 2002 2:45 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: POST-SP2 PROBLEM with OWA Hello everyone. We have recently upgraded some of our Exchange 2000 servers from SP1 to SP2. Now they run fine for a couple of days and then all of a sudden users cannot log into OWA anymore. OWA is simply not accepting their passwords. We have to do an IIS reset to make OWA work again. Anyone else with similar experience?
