Re: [squid-users] Trouble accessing Outlook Web Access

There shouldn't be any special methods in M$ OWA. A couple of years ago I
developed an HTTP tunnel to access this application using Single-Sign-On. My
old Power-Point presentation of the tunnel is still available at
http://users.outlook.net/~sbizyaye/tunnel/presentation/tunnel.ppt (about
2.8M). If you find the tunnel helpful for you, ask Tom Evans tom@outlook.net
about current terms of license. (Copyright is owned by Outlook Technologies,
