Re: webserver to webserver access via VPN

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance



Yes, but given that the 2nd webserver is on a w2003 box accessable only
by a W2003 VPN how do I arrange for a connection between the 2 boxes in
the first place?
So the webserver initially connected to by the web browser can pass
requests onto the 2nd W2003 webserver...

server to access something else on another web server, the browser just
simply goes directly to the second web server. It never goes "through" the
first web server to get there.

Hello,

Have a w2003 box acting as a file server via a VPN to 10 or so people.
It also has a IIS web server running.
Need to make this webserver (which is "private") accessable via a
"public" web server hosted by an ISP running apache 2.x running virtual
hosts on linux (suse 9.0).
Not quite sure what options there are.

a PPP client on the linuxbox perhaps- so when user logs into public
webserver a connecttion is made onto the W2003 box via the VPN -
allowing http requests?

TIA


Ton
