OWA Access error

I get prompted 3 times for username and password to try
and logon to OWA 5.5. I found the fix on the knowledgebase
but it still doesn't work. What is wrong with my IIS
configuration???

Thanks in advance...

Hi Don,

After you enter your credentials 3 times, are you then able to get in or do
you get an error at that point? Also, what article were you referring to? I
found one with that issue, so if this wasn't the one you were talking
about, check it out.

2000 server. I am tyring to access an exchange 5.5 server=20
running windows nt 4.0. All the service packs are up to=20
date. Both servers are in the same domain and I am trying=20
to access OWA on the local LAN. There is no proxy or=20
firewall. Any thoughts???

Thanks in advance...
