Part 25: Infrastructure essentials Blogcast - RPC/HTTP for Outlook & Exchange - Integrated Auth

Continuing the blogcast series on infrastructure essentials.

The final part to the RPC/HTTPS series shows you how to alter the configuration we have such that Outlook 2003 can move seamlessly between external and internal connectivity through the use of integrated authentication. To do this, we need to change both the ISA server and the Exchange server. The overall end user experience, as you will see, is far better.

So over the Christmas break, I'll get round to recording a few more parts to the series, including VPN connectivity.
