Re: RWW with no https

BTW, took me all of 30s to make https://mickmalloy.dyndns.org:8080/Remote
available _while also retaining the default settings_.
Someone want to check it from outside?

Has no-one looked at their IIS config? or do people just not understand it
(in which case they shouldn't be modifying it)?

/remote is a subfolder of 'Default Web Site' and the default site on SBS
does not require HTTPS. The CEICW can be used to open the full default
site(a damned silly idea).

The security settings for /remote have the option ticked to 'require SSL'.
As should be. Go on, turn it off, I'll reinstall your SBS in a few days
time.

The fact that RossK needs to ask how to do what he wishes precludes him
from the group of people who should be attempting it.

So just so we are all clear, RWW HAS to go over HTTPS. There is no
way around that? Even if I do https but port 8080 would not matter
correct?
Thanks

Yes I use Kerio for the 75GB limitation Exchange has but I dont want

would like to use it for RWW, is this possible?

I agree, except I silently assumed he had some valid reason. Perhaps
the two are unrelated systems, i.e., SBS for one domain, Kerio for
another. Or maybe using Kerio to get more than 75 limit. We won't know
until he chimes in with details.

Or dump Kerio Mail Server since you have the same capabilities in
Exchange ;-)

A report from dnsstuff.com indicates that you have Kerio Mail Server.
Would
it not be easier to change Kerio's ports
(http://support.kerio.com/index.php?_m=knowledgebase&_a=viewarticle&kb...)
than to hack SBS?

I can not use https. Https goes to a different server running
webmail. Maybe I am confused or wrong but you cant have to servers
behind a firewall running https and allow outside connections in. I
know if its over http and at port 8080 that will work, or at least I
think I am correct. I am not running SBS 2008, I have 2003. Yes 4125
is now changed to 8080 in the registry but I am not following you on
the proxy part.
Thanks

What is the issue around connecting to the RWW site via SSL? You're
users
don't like the popup security warning? Or they don't want to take
the time
to install the certificate on they're local machine to make those
warnings
go away.

SBS 2008 absolutely requires connection by SSL and you won't be able
to
get to the desktops without the certificate on the remote box

I basically want to run Remote web workplace over the standard web
port but going to port 8080. I have what I thought changed the
registry setting for RWW from 4125 to 8080 but I want to run the
site
by http and not https. Is this possible?

Prob is Ross is that all of that network traffic would be going over an
insecure connection.

Usernames
Passwords

changing the 4125 control port to 8080 just changes the control port not
the SSL binding ports.

Typically you can only have one SSL port bound to an IP address, so
without a second IP, an SSL connection isn't possible.
