zodiaczz -> Outlook Web Access Prompts You for Logon Credentials Multiple Times Before Inbox Appears (30.Nov.2005 4:37:09 PM)
Hello we are recently having problems with OWA where it asks us multiple times to log on to the web site. We had it set where we just had to put in the username and password, that doesnt work, we now have to put in the domainname\username to get it to work, and even then we have to log on a couple times to get it to work. The only thing that has recently changed is we installed Etrust SCM which made us change our default exchange port to 2525, email works great regularly just this OWA issue is causing the problems, we use SSL for OWA so it is using 443 so I am not sure if the change of the port has anything to do with it.

What authentication setting(s) has been configured on the Exchange virtual directory? You may also find below article interesting: http://www.msexchange.org/tutorials/OWA2003Forms-based-Authentication-default-domain.html

Thanks though I dont think this is related to my problem. I have exchange 2000 and I am not using Form Based OWA. The authentication is windows authenticated but it used to work with no problems, nothing has been manually changed on OWA, just the above work.

Of course you're using Exchange 2000 since you post this in the Exchange 2000 Forum, sorry about that [:D] When dealing with OWA 2000 you can specify the default domain under the Property page of the Exchange virtual directory. Remember to do so via the System Manager (Protocols > HTTP) and NOT the IIS Manager, since the DS2MB process otherwise will overwrite your settings every 15 minutes or during a reboot. When accessing OWA 2000 via SSL from outside your network you need to use Basic authentication.
