Re: Remote Desktop Web Connection (IIS and Apache on same machine)

Hello,

I am bothered by a small issue that is probably quickly solved by asking here. My home computer is hosting a website, and for that I chose to install XAMPP (which comprises Apache, MySQL, and PHP), and a portal (PHPNuke 7.8) on top of that. It works great, and there is nothing vital on that computer so even losing the whole machine is not important, I do it just for fun and I have backups.

I can access my home computer with the remote desktop client application from anywhere, and I have earlier tried the "Remote Desktop Web Connection" with success. Since then I have removed it, that standard client was good enough.

I now reinstalled the Remote Desktop Web Connection, and in the IIS management console I have specified on which port the server should run. However, I am unable to connect to my computer with this connection, I get an Apache error even if I specify the port in the URL:

http://my_redirected_domain/my_machine_WINS_name/tsweb:8080
(where 8080 is the port used for the iis server.

Is there something wrong in the URL ? Any other suggestion ? Firewall is deactivated.

Thank you

Lorenzo



SOLVED !

The URL must be :
http://my_redirected_domain:8080/tsweb
