Re: Trouble getting RWW from "outside."



Right. In your router, port 4125 (RWW) and SSL port 443 are forwarded to
the external NIC of the SBS server. Then run CEICW, enable the firewall,
select your services (including RWW), complete the Web Server Certificate
and complete the rest of CEICW.

If you donlt have ISA 2004 installed yet, after you do install, rr-run
CEICW, enable the firewall, and complete the rest of CEICW so that ISA is
set up properly by CEICW.

If you set up the Web Server Certificate with your WAN IP address, you would
access RWW via Internet Explorer by typing:

https://<yourWANIPaddress>/remote

(I'm assuming that you have a static WAN IP address that is going to
change).

Hi Jim,

As Steve said, don't use VPN for RWW. And for the RWW error, try this KB
article:

So, my router would forward all requests for the RWW port (I don't know
which it is, but it's been referenced several times in this newsgroup; I
feel
certain I can find it) to the "outside" IP of the SBS? When I install ISA
2K4, I would need to ensure that said port was being forwarded to the
external NIC, right?

I'll take a look right away. Thanks for the info.
