Just out of curiousity...some reason you went out of your way to change to
this IP scheme for your internal network?

When running CEICW I have created a certificate with external IP address,
and also when re-running (another time) using the DynDNS address. I could
not get either to work.

this)

When you re-run the ceicw...and it asks you about the certificate...did
you "create a new one" and then specify the external IP address as the
URL for the certificate?

I just tried using https://servername/remote and it worked and gave me no
certificate warning in the LAN. Thanks.

So now all I need to do is figure out why I cannot connect externally.
No idea what I should try next, I have ran the CEICW several times,
checked I have the correct ports forwarded etc but cannot connect from
outside.

if you were wanting to RWW from inside it would be
https://servername/remote

typically, to the best of my knowledge you shouldn't even get the
certificate warning inside the LAN

I forgot to add, when accessing from inside the LAN I first get a page
warning me that "The security certificate presented by this website was
issued for a different website's address" so I don't know if this is
preventing me from accessing remotely (I have no experience using
certificates).

Thanks.

The company do not currently have business email set up (I think they
just use an internet based email at the moment)......... it's
something I may try and persuade them to change at a later date.

Back onto the RWW issue......... I can't seem to get RWW to
work.......... If I am inside the LAN I can access it by
https://<serverlocalip>/remote but if I try to access it from the
outside using either https://<dynamicdnsname>/remote or
https://<wanipaddress>/remote I get a page cannot be found error.

I have ports 4125 and 443 open on the router, and ran the CEICW and
have RWW enabled on the server.............. I can't figure out what
I am missing.

Thanks.

Is it still possible to use RWW without a domain name? for example
the users would need to enter http://123.123.123.123 /remote to
access the RWW?

Thanks.
