Re: Getting external web server working

Thanks Steve.

I'll undo the HTTPCFG - thanks. (It was a KB - seemed to make sense...)

But.... how do I get the server to serve? If I plug in on the external side
of the network, I can't get the SBS server to serve a web page, connect to
exchange web etc. On the internal LAN this all works.

I can see ISA bouncing the packets in the log, but what I can't figure out
is, how do I tell ISA (and IIS or whatever else) that requests to the server
from the external NIC should be passed to the IIS server?

As I said in my last post, you run the Connect to the Internet wizard (CEICW). Select to enable the firewall, and it will ask what you'd like to publish. It then builds the appropriate ISA rules for you.

The rule I wrote that I thought should work is something like this....
Allow HTTP/HTTPS traffic from Anywhere to internal address (tried external
address too) using SBS Web Listener, with the public address of external NIC
address, bridge to web server on port 80"

You shouldn't need to create any rules for publishing standard SBS stuff - the CEICW does it.
