Office Web Apps returns 403 from Sharepoint server

Hi.

Previewing or browser-editing a word document in a library fails with the 'sorry, there was a problem and we can't open this document...'.

Config is a single sharepoint 2013 server and a separate OWA server.

Tracing through the ULS log on the sharepoint server - there's a message appearing re: "Proxy response returned error: 'the remote server returned an error: (403) Forbidden.'"

- My account has full admin rights right across everything
- Standard OWA install/config process was followed a number of times
- Alternate certificates on OWA server were used (as well as http only)
- Tried different logon details for the OWA service

All with pretty much the same results. Haven't tried rebuilding the OWA machine from scratch since it was a clean install to begin with and I'd like to avoid rebuilding the sharepoint server since it's taken me about 2 weeks to migrate everything across from 2010 to 2013 (including re-writing most of the custom code)

When the ULS says "proxy response.." - does anyone know what proxy this is talking about?

Thanks   John B
