I CAN access the companyweb remotely.
We have a link to another IIS website on the companyweb. When remote, the
link does not work because it references an internal IP address
(192.168.1.2:12501...). Remotely, the internal IP address cannot be resolved.
To avoid this, how can I change the link to remove the internal address, so
the linked website can be accessed remotely?
