OWA 2010 404 error
Hi All
I have been searching through the forums and have not found anything satisfactory to answer my question as yet, but I have gained some information.
What I would like to know is if there is a way to access EV via Exchange 2010 OWA without using either an ISA/TMG server or publishing the EV server directly to the internet.
We have recently upgraded the client to EV 9.0.3.1164 and access through OWA from external wont work. I understand the reason for this (the EV server needs to be contacted directly) but I read in a post similar to this a year ago that there were some new extensions coming out that would reintroduce the enterprisevaultproxy directory to allow the CAS server to 'proxy' the connection.
Are these available or was this not done? The customer is small and wont wear the additional cost of an ISA/TMG server and for security reasons we would prefer to not publish the EV server directly to the internet. They have a legal compliance requirement to archive their email which is why they went with EV
Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated

I believe what was previously discussed related to an Enterprise Vault Proxy server, however this is for Outlook Anywhere and not OWA Search/Archive Explorer. Currently the 'Search Archives' and 'Archive Explorer' functionality of the Enterprise Vault OWA Extensions require a direct connection between the client machine and the Enterprise Vault server(s), preferably using an ISA/TMG or similar device.
Ultimately this was a change in functionality from Exchange 2003 OWA support to Exchange 2007 and above OWA support. In the end it boils down to a business decision on whether an Enterprise Vault server should be published to allow for the Search Archive and Archive Explorer functionality externally, all other operations (Archive, Restore, Retrieval, etc.) function through the Client Access Server.
Thanks,
