Hi Les,
In your statement "If you're on a remote computer with an internet
connection, and your SBS computer has a fixed (or equivalent) IP address,
then you can reach the
above OWA or RWW with this URL: https://ip_address/exchange or /remote. No
VPN is required. With a fixed IP, you can also configure the Outlook email
client to connect directly to your exchange server (instead of using OWA)."
I've tried that and it doesn't work. I have a router with a static IP. I can
VPN in but if I just type the IP then no go. Is there a help doc for this
setup, or can you recommend telling me the name of this process.
Thanks,
Greg
