outlook web access (OWA) domain\user

[Mr. Backup]

I am looking for a method of helping my users log into outlook web access
(OWA), without having to type the full domain each time.

I personally think its better to type the domain\user so that it's a little
more secure as exploiters on the web would need to know the domain and the
user id before even attempting to guess a password. But management rules
sometimes and they would like to have that.

So does anyone have a document that details on how I can accomplish this?

You can specify the default domain in the IIS virtual server:

IIS Admin > Web Sites > Default Web Site | Properties
Select the Directory Security tab
Select Edit under "Authentication and access control"
In the default domain box, either type in the NetBIOS domain name or click
Select and choose it.

Alternatively (if simplicity is the key), if their UPN is the same as their
email address (the default email policy is user...@domain.com), you can
enable UPN logons by following the information in the article at
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=267906, "How to set up OWA for UPN logon
names."

Assuming Exchange 2003, tell your users to use their email address instead of
domain\username. I've found that this is easier for them to understand.
