Exchange 2010 Outlook Anywhere Auto Configure
Hello,
I have a test Exchange 2010 and I had read somewhere that I can create a file or something that allows remote users that are using RPC over HTTPS to just enter a server name, user name and password and Outlook will query this file and automatically configure
itself. This was a while back so I forgot what that was called or how to do it. Does anybody have any links I can get to read up on it?

Yes, you could configure Outlook profile external.
Before you conifgure Outlook anywhere , please make sure you have enabled Outlook anywhere on your CAS , and you have configured

After you have finished it ,don’t forget testing Outlook anywhere connectivity.

Exchange server and outlook anywhere working, I just need to set up that autodiscovery file!!
Thanks
