RE: http://companyweb /remote /backup /Monitoring HELP



Hi Mark,

Thanks for posting here!

For your description, I understand that you got the 403 error when you
access http://Companyweb/remote. If I am off base, please don't hesitate to
let me know.

If ISA installed

This issue can occur if the URL you use in the Web browser to access
companyweb, RWW and other web sites that does not match the name in ISA
server web publishing rules. To resolve this issue, we must run CEICW and
specify the FQDN that you will use to access the sites as the web server
certificate. To do so:

1. On the SBS 2003 Server open the Server Management console. Go to
Standard Management\To Do List.

2. Click the "Connect to the Internet" link.

3. Choose not to change the connection type and click Next. On the Firewall
page, select "Enable firewall" and click Next (I suppose you have 2 network
adapters in SBS 2003).

4. On the "Services Configuration" page, select all the items and then
click Next.

5. On the "Web Services Configuration" page, make sure "Allow access to the
entire Web site from the Internet" is selected. If you select "Allow access
to only the following Web site services from the Internet", make sure the
corresponding web site items are selected. Click Next.

6. On the "Web Server Certificate" page, choose to create a new Web server
certificate and then type the public FQDN that you will use to access the
websites (for example, if your public FQDN that you use to access the sites
is www.domain.com, you should type www.domain.com as the new certificate
name). If you already requested a certificate with the name
"www.domain.com" from a third party CA, you can choose "Use a Web server
certificate from a trusted authority" and then import the certificate.

7. Go through the remaining steps. The wizard will automatically configure
the SBS 2003 Basic Firewall to securely publish the websites.

8. If you have a router or hardware firewall, configure it to forward
inbound traffic on TCP port 80, 443 and 444 to the SBS server's external
address.

You can refer to the following KB article to configure network connection:

825763 How to configure Internet access in Windows Small Business Server
2003
http://support.microsoft.com/?id=825763

If this issue still cannot be resolved, I would like to collect following
information for further troubleshooting.

1. On the SBS server, please open https://localhost/remote and so on, could
you visit the remote site?

2. Could you access the remote web workplace from the internal clients?

3. Please try to access the RWW from the internet client and then, please
capture a screenshot of the error message, so that I can have a clear idea
of the error. Note: please ensure that you have disable "Show friendly HTTP
error message" in the Advanced tab of IE option on the client workstation.
4. Can you find any error event log in Event viewer? If so, please paste me
the accurate error log in the newsgroup.

I appreciate you time and effort. I am currently standing by for you about
the test result. I am always happy to be of further assistance.

Have a nice day!

Best Regards,

Jenny Wu
