Hi,
I just would like some clarification about which External hostname / DNS entries that I need to publish in my external facing DNS server to enable Outlook Anywhere on my Exchange Server 2007 for external user:
- ExCAS01.domain.com - Exchange CAS A Record
- Autodiscover.domain.com - Autodiscover CNAME to the CAS Server above
- _autodiscover._tcp.domain.com - SRV type record
and do I have to expect anything by typing this address in bowser "https://autodiscover.domain.com/AutoDiscover/AutoDiscover.xml" ? because i get request time out at the moment.
here are the error log from https://testexchangeconnectivity.com:
Host Excas01.domain.com couldn't be resolved in DNS Exception details:
