Re: is RWW installed and working

Hi Thomas:

Have you forward the ports from the router/firewall for RWW?

443
444
4125

you do this the same way you do 1723 for VPN.

Larry,
Thanks for the info. I tried using https://ip-address/remote from my
laptop at home and nothing happened. I get the 'timed out' page.

If I VPN into my server, then start a Terminal Service session to log
into the server, I can then open up IE and type in https://10.0.0.2/remote
and get the logon page for RWW.

We are running Exchange server on this SBS server. the email address
(www.companyname.com) is hosted by an ISP and the email is forwarded to
our static IP address which is assign to our server as part of the
External NIC card (we are setup with two NICs in the server).

What am I missing? What do I need to do or setup so I can directly access
RWW from my laptop at home with using the VPN/TS procedure?

Again, thanks for taking the time to help out. I really do appreciate
it.

Thomas

Hi Thomas:

From inside the LAN, open IE:

https://server-ip/remote

you should get a welcome and logon page.

If you want to see what one looks like,

https://mail.sbsfaq.com/remote

which brings me to the second point. When you run the CEICW it asks for
the fqdn for the certificate for the server. If this has been done,
don't change anything unless you are certain of the consequences.

There must be a public DNS record that points to the name that is used
here.

If it has never been done, you can use the Public ip address of your
network until you get a DNS record for that address that your users can
type. The reason we see https://mail.xxxxxx is because if you are
receiving mail at your SBS server, there is probably a DNS record for
that already.

And, last point, you can get rid of the security warning by clicking on
the pink certificate warning part of the browsers address bar and
accepting the cert on your local system.

All,
I'm new to SBS 2003 RWW. Can someone point me in the right direction
as to how I can tell if RWW is properly installed in my SBS2003
environment? Also, when SBS was installed the consulting company named
our server as follows: servername.local

We do have a static IP address used in a 2 NIC environment.
Our website (companyname.com) is hosted on a ISP's server
(godaddy.com)

So, if RWW is truely installed in our SBS environment, how would I
access this?

Thank you,
Thomas
