OWA + FBA + EAS Continued

Well, finally cracked it tonight!

OWA + EAS running under it's own IIS root, on a DC with no broken DNS, no scary security tweaks and no need to create alternative virtual directories (per mskb Q234022).

OWA is using FBA (Forms Based Authentication) which is by far the best option for OWA and the mobile devices synchronise with EAS (Exchange Active Sync) on the same root.

This was another funny exercise - lots of brain busting, going round in circles, seeing loads of people on the web having the same problem. Once it was all solved though, the solution is relatively simple.

Post me a comment if you want to discuss the solution!
