Outlook 2007 Anywhere doesn't work
Hello,I'm going nuts with my problem. I feel I've already read all docs and posts on the Net regarding the issue. I'm on this for 4 consecutive days, I hope some one get me some help or light on this.I haveone and only Exchange Server 2007 SP1 Enterprise (with update rollup 5 on a Windows 2008) with Hub Transport, Client Access and Mailbox roles (not a DC). Autodiscover andOutlook Anywhere configured.I have a SAN Certificate created with my internal Root CA issued to mydom.pub (public), the alternative names are: owa.mydom.pub, autodiscover.mydom.pub, srvexch and srvexch.mydom.priv.Outlook 2007 works fine with RPC (TCP/IP). When connected by Outlook Anywhere I keepgetting "shot" with a pop-up asking for credentials no matter what. Apparently Outlook keeps working but the pop-upcomes back regularly.Lower right corner might show "Need Password" from time to time but if I force "Type Exchange Password and Connect" it apparently behaves normaly for some time until next pop-up.I have no problem with OWA and I can configure Outlook 2007 (internal and externally) automaticaly without problems. Outlook 2003 works fine also.Any ideas? What am I missing?

Is Outlook Anywhere configured to use Basic or NTLM Authentication? When you specify your credentials are you using the format "domain\username" ?To test the certificate, visit the OWA site. Does it warn about a certificate problem of any kind, or do all 3 checks pass?Also, checkout this cool tool: https://www.testexchangeconnectivity.com/ Mike Crowley: MCT, MCSE, MCTS, MCITP: Enterprise Administrator / Messaging Administrator

Hi,
1. Please ensure the Root certificate has been installed on the client into trust root certificate.
2. Please ensure the Exchange-related virtual directories are configured correctly in Exchange 2007 by refer to following article:
