iis security : why internet OWA clients cant logon - HTTP 500

Dear all,

This is OWA5.5 that are running on W2K server, member server of NT4 domain -
that sitting at the DMZ. All OWA users (but except me - why????) will receive
error message "HTTP 500 - Internal server error" after entering their
username & password.

On Exchange Server (at Internal network), I have configured using static
port for DS & IS services & PIX has allowed them through as well as the port
135.
PIX allows ports 137, 138 & 139 through between OWA (DMZ) & Exchange Server
(Internal).
OWA clients from both Internet & LAN are connect using HTTPS.
Current OWA Server is also the CA Standalone root server.
I have enabled SSL for OWA web page & using BASIC authentication method for
the specified default domain

Apparently the OWA server event viewer log ID 100 from source W3SVC that
says "server was unable to logon the Windows NT account "xxx" due to the
following error" there are currently no logon servers available to servce the
logon request". What have not I configured here?

Don't you need to open port 443 for SSL?

I have port 443 already opened. thank Cwhitmore. Apparently it was my errors,
I found out later that it was the poor network bandwidth at that time.
