Re: SBS 2003 and self signed SSL certificate



In CEICW, what did the Web server certificate page show:
Was it set up to use your FQDN?
Was it set up to use an IP address?
Was it set up to use a 3rd party cert?

Hi Merv,

Furrther to our chat ......If I put in the Internet IP or the FQDN of the
server from my home system I can get the welcome screen but I can't get in
to
RWW. I'm not too sure if that maybe a fire wall problem or it's not
published properly ..... I did do a capture of the CEICW screen when I ran
it
if you'd like to see it ..... I can PM it to you......

Cheers'

Do you have a registered domain name?
Can you post the exact error message you get about the "problem with the
sites certificate"?

For the misspelled company name in RWW...

Hi Merv,

Thanks for the prompt reply .... Yes, it's for staff to get in to
Remote
Web
Workplace and yes I have ran the CEICW and we only have the one nic
hooked
up.

It's on my local subnet with the server on 192.....10. I'll go read
the
walk thru and see if I can figgure out why I can't get the browser to
work.

I open the browser and point it to the 192. number and I get the
Welcome
screen, then when I click on the RWW I get a security warning about
going
from a current site on http:// to a trusted site on https:// and I say
Yes.

Then when I hit the http://192...../Remote, it says there is a problem
with
the sites certificate and I hit continue to the web site .....

Then I get the same prompt again about going from http to https: so
when I
get to the RWW login screen in https: the address bar is pink but I can
still
login to RWW and run OWA.

I didn't set up this server initally but I'm slowly learning it and
trying
to fix the errors it has, like for example the name of the company is
misspelled in the title bar of the main menu of RWW but I can see the
connect
to the server and client desktops and the OWA does work.

Cheers'
Dave Cason

If you mean a 3rd party certificate:
