Having some trouble creating a health monitor for our OWA through ISA site

I'm not sure why you're getting a 401. One thing to note that I forgot is that if you're using the username and password fields on the monitor, you should terminate the send string with one \r\n as the monitoring daemon appends the Authorization header after the send string along with two \r\n's to terminate the request.

 

 

I just tested on 10.2.1 with our OWA server. This example worked:

 

 

GET /owa/auth/logon.aspx HTTP/1.1\r\nAuthorization: Basic dXNlcm5hbWU6cGFzc3dvcmQ=\r\nUser-Agent: LTM-Monitor\r\nHost: owa.example.com\r\nAccept: */*\r\n\r\n

 

 

Instead of setting the user/pass in the monitor fields, I just base64 encoded them manually and set that in the Authorization header. Can you give something like this a try?
