Re: Remote access to member server



nitpicky correction to Merv: The contractor would not see workstations
(unless he took the wrong choice at the RWW front page).

Does someone accessing 'purely for administrative purposes' (therefore not
requiring a CAL) have to use either the 500 account or pose as an existing
user or can a specific account be set up for that use? I believe the latter.

Hi:

Did not read the thread that Merv posted, so this may have been covered.

First, seems to me that once the LOB person is connected to anything on
your LAN, you have exposed your entire network to him. Browse Network
Neighborhood???

Second, he will need access, so either he is a 'user' or he is an
administrator. If he poses as one of the existing users, you won't need a
license for him, but you will want to change password after he is done?

Third: have not tried this with SBS2003 as the front end, but for years
we VPN'd to the SBS 2000 servers, then RDP to the ip of our choice, either
the ip of the SBS or the IP of the TS. You might could keep the LOB guy
from logon to any system but the TS with policies for that user?

What about outside of RWW - does anything exist to just goto the remote
login for that server?

The member server is a terminal server, so I suppose I should be able to
set it up for remote users to login to directly but I'm not sure how
(currently it is for internal LAN use only).

Thx

Hi Al,

Unfortunately, per user restrictions can't be done within RWW. Now, if
you want to always restrict access for that user (both when on the LAN
and when using RWW), you can use:

Server Management | Standard Management | Users | (rt click) the user
account | Properties | Account (tab) | Log On To... | The Following
Computers...

Then add the target member server to the list AND also add the SBS
server. You need the SBS server specified so that the user can
authenticate to the server when logging into RWW (however, he will not
be able to log onto the SBS server itself).

The user will "see" all workstations (and the member server) in the RWW
list of computers, but will only be able to log onto the member server
itself.

We have a contractor who needs remote access to a Windows 2003 member
server in our SBS 2003 Premium network to do some short-term
maintenance on a LOB application we run on it. I know I can get him
remote access via the remote web workplace (access server desktops)
but is there anyway to just give him access to just the member server
directly without using RWW? I don't really want to expose the RWW
interface to our entire system to them if I don't have to.

Thanks.
