Re: RWW Unavailable

Merv

Thanks again for the prompt response. The DMZ is set to 10.0.0.2 however
before I set the DMZ I forwarded:

SharePoint 444 TCP
RWW 4125 TCP
TermServ 3389 TCP
VPN-L2TP 1701 UDP
VPN-PPTP 1723 TCP
NNTP 119 TCP
SMTP 25 (TCP)
HTTPS 443 (TCP)
HTTP 80 (TCP)
DMZ (and finally)

It must be a problem with the two routers. The firmware on the RP614 and
the DG834 looks virtually identical so apart from the modem in the DG834 I
guess there are the same box so as you suggest it may be a common firmware
problem. I'll go back to Netgear and see if they know anything.

I'll post back with any results.

Thanks again.

And for the DMZ port, on the router you entered 10.0.0.2, right?

You might want to try NOT using a DMZ and instead use port forwarding...

I suppose it could also be a firmware issue.

Merv

From both a client and the Laptop attached to the internet router
10.0.0.2/remote returns the RWW and .0.2 (no /remote) returns a page
offering
the Company Web, Network COnfiguration Wizard, RWW and Information and
Answers.

I'm more interested in your Item 5 where you said that
https://10.0.0.2/remote let you into RWW. (or did I misinterpret this

Sorry - silly of me not to mention it but I changed both. The local NIC
using
the Change Server IP Address Wizard. I reconnected the clients by
using
repaire on the local NIC properties popup.

Is not the absence of a listener on 4125 interesting?

When you ran CEICW, what did you use for your Web Server Certificate?
Was
it an IP address?

Have you done what SG suggested (maybe change the server IP to
192.168.10.2
and then back to 192.168.16.2)?...
"If not, you might look at running the 'Change server IP address'

This
does a lot 'under the hood' as well as simply changing the IP. If you

Again thanks all for the prompt replies and my apologies for the
delay
in
responding. I carefully wrote a detailed response last night and
left
it
too
long before posting - time out, text lost and too tired.

This would really look like a router fault if I didn't have the same
issue
on two different servers with different routers. Also one has a BT
Network
service the other BT wires only. Both routers are Netgear; one a
DG834
the
other an RP614. I have no other like issues with five similar
servers
three
of which have DG834 routers

Some diagnostics:

1) Nothing is listening on 4125(!) although there are listeners on
444
and
443 - key issue? I really should have checked this earlier: Copy
of
netstat
- oan available if required

2) https://192.168.16.2/remote worked from the server before I
changed
the
internal IP from 192.168. to 172.0. and back. Now it doesn't.
Unfortunately
I didn't try the RWW whilst it was set to 172.0

3) The Server was restarted after the removal of IPv6

4) https://companyweb does work from the server and clients

5) https://10.0.0.2/remote works from the laptop from a spare port
on
the
internet router on .0.3 as does https://10.0.0.2:444 returning the
Companyweb
and .0.2:443 returning the RWW

6) Ditto above using the external IP fails in both instances

7) I tried substituting the router for an ADSL modem (D-Link
DSL-300T)
capable of DNS and DHCP. With just the laptop on the modem I had to
set
the
DNS on the NIC before it could ping or browse out to a FQDN although
it
would
ping out. On connecting this to the server I had no internet
connectivity
despite changing the DNS settings in ICEW and on the NIC. Not much
of
a
test.

8) http://external_IP from the laptop gives me the router home page.
http://external_IP:444 or 443 or /remote returns Page Cannot be
Displayed
errors

9) No errors have been returned nor is there anything in the logs

Please accept my apologies for any offence caused by the smiley. It
was
meant as an observation. I was somewhat surprised at the number of
august
individuals apparently indirectly commenting on the future of QoS.
My
pet
hate is being on site with a high kiddie contention in the area
after
schools.

Again thanks for everyone's assistance.

kewl, at least now an item we _know_ interferes is gone, the IP
config
looks
good so I'd be running the CEICW, ensure it completes without
error.

The next step will be to try https://192.168.16.2/remote and
https://companyweb from the server itself and, if successful, then
from a
workstation in the network. Do these work please? If not, you might
look
at
running the 'Change server IP address' wizard from the Email and
Internet
portion of the SBS console, run it once to move to another subnet,
then
run
it again to move back to your original. This does a lot 'under the
hood'
as
well as simply changing the IP. If you do run the 'Change server IP
address'
wizard please also rerun the CEICW.

Of course, please report any errors encountered during this
process.
If
we're error free at this point, do the links work? from the server?
from
a
ws?

Also, has the system been restarted since the removal of IPv6? I'm
not
sure
whether it forces a restart but it would be wise to anyway.

Once it's working internally you might want to throw your lappy
back
onto
the router side and try https://10.0.0.2/remote and
https://10.0.0.2:444,
result? Do these still result in redirection to the router
interface?
If
so
I'd be connecting the lappy and the server external NIC to a
hub/switch,
take the router out of the equation for a few minutes, result?

BTW: 'Still doesn't work though ;¬)', as well as sounding a bit
smug,
doesn't tell us a lot about how it's failing. You have made
significant
change to the system, are the notes about availability still
current?
