Outlook Web Access Form Based Authentication

This is not always as easy to setup as one would think!

First thing to do is check System manager; navigate to the server, then protocols, then http
Right click on Exchange Virtual Server and go to properties.
On the settings tab, make sure you have ticked enable form based authentication.

Next thing to check is whether or not you have an SSL Certificate installed for your Outlook Web Access. Make sure that the cert corresponds to the name your using to get to web access. eg www.webaccess.com

LAstly in IIS Manager go to the properties of exchange virtual dir and enable SSL then 128 bit.

You may then need to restart IIS (not always though)

and lo and behold you have web access using forms...
