What URL are you typing into the browser when trying to access RWW externally
from your LAN?
Post another ipconfig from the server and a client for me to double-check.

OK David, I beleive that I have all of my IP config issues squared away. I.
am now able to see all my client machines on the network, and can
successfully connect to both RWW and ComanyWeb from anywhere on the LAN. My
remaining problem though, is that I am not able to connect from outside of
the LAN to the RWW sessions. I have opened ports 4125 and 443 on my router,
but still no luck. I have attempted to go through some of the other threads
to see if I can find my answer, but things seem to get out of my area of
knowledge rather quickly. This is the very first time I have set this up,
and don't understand a lot of the ins and outs (obviously). Would you have
any 'dumbed down' suggestions on how I might be able to get RWW access to my
server from outside of the LAN, where I am just connecting through the
internet? Thanks in advance...

I'm afraid you have quite a few issues with your IP configuration.
First of all the server is getting a DHCP address. That is not good. Did
you send the output of ipconfig to a text file or just copy the details and
type them in up here? Because the SBS really shouldn't be getting a DHCP
address, and the IP addresses all look very strange.
To redirect the ipconfig output to a text file run the following command on
both your server and workstation, then find the c:\ipconfig.txt file and post
the results up here again:
ipconfig /all>c:\ipconfig.txt

Thank you for your reply David. Here is what I have done based on your
response: Went to a client PC, and changed my DNS server from Dynamically
assign, to the IP address of my SBS server. Once I did that, I lost all
internet connectivity, so was once again unable to connect to the remote
page. Here is an output from the server and a sample client machine:
SERVER:
DHCP Enabled: Yes
Autoconfiguration Enabled: Yes
IP addy: (DHCP) 192.168.168.6
Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0
Default Gateway: 192.168.168.168
DHCP Server: 192.168.168.168
DNS Server: 192.168.1.254
Pri. WINS Server: 192.168.1.14
CLIENT PC:
DHCP Enabled: Yes
Autoconfiguration Enabled: Yes
IP Addy: 192.168.1.8
Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0
Default Gateway: 192.168.1.254
DHCP Server: 192.168.1.254
DNS Servers: 192.168.1.254
What is sticking out to me so far is that my default gateway is different
between the two. What does that ultimately need to be set to for the server
and the client pcs? Thanks again in advance...

Ensure the client PC's have the SBS as their DNS server. Post an IPCONFIG
from the server and one of the clients on here for me to check.

I am trying to set up some RWW connections for the first time, and am running
into problems. I am pretty sure I have set something up incorrectly, but I
am not sure where to look to resolve.
When I try to connect to https:\\myservername\remote from a client
workstation, I am unable to connect to the page. However, if I use the same
url from the server itself, I am able to get to the login screen just fine.
What have I done incorrectly that is preventing my clients from connecting?
Thank you in advance for any suggestions\help.
