Status: offline There has been quite a lot of this recently and it seems to be down a recent update.

A resolution that has been working quite a bit is to do the following. In IIS Manager navigate to the website that contains your Exchange Virtual Directories (In Exchange 2007 this is Default website, in SBS2008 this is SBS Web Applications)

In turn highlight the following Virtual Directories:

AutoDiscover
RPC
EWS
OAB

Once highlighted select Authentication, right click on Windows Authentication and select Advanced Settings and put a check in the enable kernel-mode authentication.

Do this for each directory.

This seems to resolve the problem, although not entirely sure why.
