Re: Urgent: Problem setting up web site hosting on SBS03 with ISA 04

Hosting a public web site on your SBS box is a major security risk-please
reconsider.

Hello,

I have a bit of a problem. I am the tech for a new startup business that
recently bought a Server from Dell with SBS 03 Premium. I would like to
set
this machine up to host the external web site as well as the doing the
normal
SBS server stuff (exchange, sharepoint, SQL, etc.)

I literally just turned this machine on two days ago and have successfully
completed the setup for the preinstalled OS. I followed the directions
that
came from Microsoft for completing the setup.

I have two NIC cards in the server, one going to a T1 line from the ISP
and
the other one for the internal network. Everything is setup with the
out-of-the-box default settings. The Server does have internet access (I
have
no clients machines yet) and everything seems to work. EXCEPT for hosting
an
external web site:

When I attempt to view the company web site from my home computer (by
entering the static IP address assigned by our ISP) I get the error:
"Error
Code: 500 Internal Server Error. Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP)
network is unreachable. For more information about this event, see ISA
Server
Help. (10051)". For some reason I cannot find ISA Server Help on this.

After much searching I found a blog post where someone with a similiar
error
suggested changing the port for WPAD to 8080 instead of the port 80 it
defaults to so that there are no IP binding conflicts. I made this change
and
still get the exact same error.

I'm suprised that the server does work right out of the box, but I guess
most people host IIS and ISA on different machines (but what about all
those
SBS servers out there - do not any of them host their own web sites?)

Can someone tell me what I'm doing wrong? Why can't I see my comany web
site? If you need more infomation to answer my question I am willing to
provide.
