Hi,
[Windows 2003 Server Std, MS Exchange 2003 Server, CISCO firewall, IIS web server]

We have a web server which serves as a file repository for our clients. They can click on a web link from our web pages to download the file (mostly PDF files). Our web server uses a different port (8081) than port 80. Some users complaint they could not download files from us. They said it was because we used non-standard port and their office firewall blocked the downloads. The reason why we use 8081 was because we have OWA, uses port 80, and wanted to separate it from web server. Is there any way for us to use port 80 for web server and OWA also? How do we configure it?

I have both setup on a 2000 server. OWA just runs in a subfolder from the main website, with its own security, both on port 80.
