Okay, so you are working with a self signed certificate. When you install
the certificate to the workstation, make sure it is to the computer's
trusted root certificate store?
The other thing that we need to make sure is that you identified the
exchange server as a back-end server. (Start Exchange System Manager, right
click on the server object, select properties, and go to the rpc-http tab.)

Thanks Neo.
We do not get any warnings about the certificate. We did install the
certificate on the workstation.
The rest of your assumptions are all correct, single server, latest
service
packs and updates.
At the SBS 2003 we run the Connect to internet wizard and generated a web
server cerificate: mail.domain_name.com.au.
Is there something else that we have not done or enabled at the Server.

Guido

When you type in https://IP_Address/exchange or
https://fqdn.exchange.servername/exchange, do you get any type of warning
about accepting the certificate? If yes, then the desktop cannot connect
as
the certificate has to be verified back to the signing CA. (By this I
mean
if the certificate is self issued, then the public 1/2 of the certificate
needs to be installed on any desktop/laptop that you expect to connect
via
rpc/https)
Other than that, is it safe to assume that your SBS 2003 box has the
latest
service packs and security fixes? Safe to assume that you are working
with
a single server site or are you trying to establish a multi-exchange
server
site?

I am having trouble configuring Outlook 2007 to connect remotely to
Exchange
Server 2003 (Windows SBS 2003).
I have done the connect to the Internet Wizard correctly. I can connect
using OWA by either typing the IP Address/Exchange or the Web
Cerificate
generated, mail.domain_name.com.au/exchange.
When configuring Outlook 2007, it requires the name of the Exchange
Server.
What is the exact syntax of the Exchange Server.
Your help is appreciated.
Regards,
Guido
