Outlook 2007 through VPN is not working

Hallo everyone,
I've read a few similar posts but it seems there is no clues to fix with
issue.
All the laptop of my company has Windows XP with Outlook 2003 (exchange
server 2003) and there is no problem connecting through VPN and using Outlook.

I am performing some tests on Windows Vista since we are upgrading.
I can successfully estabilish a VPN connection, access to terminal server
and ping the exchange server but If I try to configure Outlook, it just says
the Exchange server is not available.

I though the problem was the DNS, i've edited the hosts file to resolve the
exchange server's IP (192.1468.101.99) with the name (srv99), now I can ping
srv99 and it resolves but the problem with outlook persists.



What could it be? how can i diagnose the problem?

thanks

Carlos,

How did this fix the issue using VPN? This article deals with using Outlook
to connect to Exchange over the Internet not through VPN connections.

Re: Outlook 2007 through VPN is not working

Sorry guys! I copied the wrong link:-(
The correct is:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/887222/en-us

After I applied the workaround on ISA Server, my O07 on Vista connects perfect to exchange server 2003 via VPN.

I will try to apply the correction pack to ISA (instead of workaround)server and check it!

Good lucky

Re: Outlook 2007 through VPN is not working

We have a Cisco VPN system, so this would not apply.

Thanks for the reply anyway.
