Re: RWW

The IP we pay for is a Static DSL IP address provided by Verizon. As far as I know nothing points to it. If I type this numbers into the address bar it resolves to my server...provided I supply 3389.

If I type the name of my company into IE, it resolves to hosting provided by GoDaddy.

Yes, good, but is that WAN IP for sbs static or dynamic and does a name point to it?

I am testing from a home computer outside and away from the server.

I have a router. The WAN IP is a 64.xxx.xxx.xx address. The internal is on a 192.xxx.xxx.xxx

All workstations and the Server are on the 192. network.

I don't believe that I have a public DNS which points to my ISP??? Verizon???

Draino,

Do you have a static or dynamic IP? (HINT: The answer to this is not yes, nor is it no:-)
Do you have a name in public DNS which points to your IP?

Is your testing occuring from outside your LAN? (ie. _not_ from behind your router)
There can be a problem with what is called 'loopback processsing' through most routers. Loopback is where a machine inside the LAN requests the WAN IP which is then 'forwarded' back to a machine on the LAN.

If you want, send me a screen shot of your mouse poised to click the red/pink portion of the address bar, and any error messages that occur after you click through accepting, importing the cert.

Other than having to click through the "not trusted" warning in IE when you connect remotely, what other issues are you having with RWW?

Hi Draino:

Configure your router/firewall manually. PnP is not ready for prime time on many of these devices. What kind is it?

You should forward 4125, 443, 444 to the listening nic in your SBS.


Ok done



Once you hit the RWW page, you can install the cert in IE and the error will cease and desist. Dbl-Click the red/pink portion in the middle of the browser address bar and click through to install the cert on the remote computer.


Well this did not work.



That should be all there is to it.

If you are accepting SMTP mail at your server you can use the public DNS address for your mail server in the CEICW. Usually it is "mail.domainname.com". Or you can setup any public DNS record you want that points to the public ip of your SBS.

Hi all,

Some problems I am having with remote access.

1.) I can access my server using the WAN IP address on router. I just RDP in with 3389. No problems and works great.

2.) I tried setting up RWW but in the CEICW I cannot get access to my firewall. Something about only having one NIC.

3.) I opened ports 443 and 4125 on the router and I can access the RWW interface using my public domain IP address but I get a cert error, but I can continue into the site. I can see all my workstations and my server but I cannot access any of them. It looks like some things want to access port 444 but not sure.

4.) On the Web Server Cert page it looks like my Web server name: is pointing to the gateway of my static IP address provided by my ISP. I think this might be part of the problem. Should that box be the public IP address?
