i know you have received a lot of mail regarding reverse proxying OWA, i have read all these and still have no luck, so i come to you, the experts
i set up a reverse proxy on one machine that is made to proxy multiple hosts, therefore each host is contained in a virtual host, the one for exchange is on port 443 (to allow https access to be proxied) if i open a connection directly to my exchange server at https://exchangeip/exchange/ i am presented with a login prompt when i open a connection to the reverse proxy with https://revproxyip/exchange/ i am given an error reading "The connection to revproxyip has unexpectedly terminated" in firefox (ie simply gives me a 404 error page) the exchange server is not using NTLM authentication because of problems with proxying that the conf file for the 443 virtual host is contained below <VirtualHost *:443> #exchange stuff ProxyPass / https://gcexchange01.guilford.com/ # ProxyPass /exchange/ https://gcexchange01.guilford.com/exchange/ ProxyPassReverse / https://gcexchange01.guilford.com/ # ProxyPassReverse /exchange/ https://gcexchange01.guilford.com/exchange/ ProxyHTMLURLMAP / https://gcexchange01.guilford.com/ ProxyHTMLURLMAP https://gcexchange01.guilford.com / # ProxyHTMLURLMAP /exchange/ https://gcexchange01.guilford.com/exchange/ # RewriteEngine On #security features to help aleviate security issues with IIS # RewriteRule ^(http|ftp)://.* [F] # RewriteRule ^(.*)?/iisadmin/?
