Your first check should not use any complex scripting. Instead try opening the WDSL from a simple browser window on the Debian machine like so: https://your.exchange-server.com/EWS/Services.wsdl

If that does not work there are probably access restrictions in place that depend on the client IP or client network (e.g. your development machine being in a trusted network, your Debian not). The fact that you get a 401 ("Unauthorized" - request requires user authentication) suggests that there is no problem with contacting the server but with authentication.

Another check I suggest is that you have a look into your phpinfo() to make sure your PHP installation on Debian is capable of handling HTTP*S* requests. Make sure, OpenSSL is installed!
