Works a treat :-) Thanks for the heads up Andrew

Um, not so impressed anymore :-( The KB hotfix is only for Exch SP2 which I did not have. When I installed the SP2 it fried my box and made OWA die. (even at the server - completly destroyed my IIS sites !) I restored from the image I made before installing SP2 and will try again, so be warned... Has anyone else had success? Regards Andrew Using OWA – you’ll need to install the hotfix for KB article 911829 on the SBS server

Hi Dave, thanks for the interest. Yes, my SBS 2003 Prem (without ISA installed) box was fully up to date up to SP1 and all essential patches. After I installed the Exch SP2 (which is a pre-requisite for the vista OWA hot fix) everything was ok, then I patched with the KB and then all of my IIS sites were wiped out and replaced with some strange garbled folders which were all identical and were useless. I was quite frustrated and did not take a screen shot. Since the image worked a treat to restore my server, I will try again this weekend and this time make notes and screen shots if I am again unsuccessful. I really like Vista (RC1), and I need OWA (or OL2007 via HTTP) - however at the moment since going to Vista, I have had use RDP back to the server to get email. I truly believe that patches work. However, to help the many customers out there (who are simply trying to use the upgraded features etc), I think that when a hot fix or patch like this is released, then MS patch people should build into the installer, a diagnostic which identifies which pre-requisites are required - I know it stops and advises us of Exch SP2 but obviously there must be other pre-requisites or "assumed" parts missing otherwise it would have worked?
