Part 17: Infrastructure essentials Blogcast - RPC/HTTP for Outlook & Exchange - Initial Setup

Continuing the blogcast series on infrastructure essentials.

The second part of configuring RPC over HTTP for Outlook 2003 connectivity to Exchange 2003 is covered in this blogcast. Now that we have the proxy component installed on the Exchange Server, we have some further configuration to perform. First, we take a look at and amend the IIS configuration on the Exchange Server for the newly create rpc virtual directory. Currently our Exchange Server does not have a web server certificate for SSL encryption, so we request that and apply it to our IIS server on the Exchange Server.
