Re: Dynamic IP, dyndns.org, and RWW

Merv, I unchecked "Block Anonymous Internet Requests" and router should now
be pingable.
I will upgrade the firmware tomorrow, once I check what version is on the
Tag on/under the router.

Other information: I have Symantec Endpoint v11.0.3001 running on the
Server/Desktops and it is working great with no problems.

Is there anything there that would affect RWW?

Also, you router's firmware looks way out of date. I believe it shows
version 1.00.9 and the latest is 4.21.1. You may want to update it.

On the Security tab of the Linksys WRT54G router, uncheck "Block Anonymous
Internet Requests". This should allow you router to be "pingable" from
outside your network. (i.e., will be able to ping 70.106.172.218). This
may give us more info if we still can't ping this IP after the change.

I concerned that https://rdfrubber.dyndns.org/remote does not result in a
connection. I also cannot ping the IP address associated with it
(70.106.172.218). Is this IP the WAN that you get from Verizon?

The Modem is a plain Westell 6000, and does have any router features
builtin.
No reset button either. It is a pure "bridge" modem.

I'm wondering if the "modem" is not in bridge mode (or has a firewall)
and
is blocking traffic into your network.

Answer:
rdfrubber.dyndns.org. 60 A 70.106.172.218

Which from your pdf (hope you don't mind) is the current IP, but I
can't
connect.

The port forwards on the Linksys for 443/3389/4125 only need to be
TCP
but
having them set to BOTH shouldn't stop them from working.

You have not told the CEICW to open 3389 (Terminal Services) so that
port
forward is doing nothing at this time. That's OK, for RWW and the
RDPProxy
you only need 443 (RWW) and 4125 (RDPProxy, or 'connect to...'
function
in
RWW).

Still, I cannot get a connection to
https://rdfrubber.dyndns.org/remote.
This is as if Verizon are blocking it, or the port forwards aren't
working,
or SBS for some reason isn't listening to those ports on the
192.168.1.2
interface.

Please give us the full (preferably unedited) output of 'IPConfig

C:\ipconfig.txt'.

Merv, Thanks.. I think that I'm getting closer..but still need
help..

For your convenience, I have made a PDF document that includes all
of
my
Linksys settings, Dyndns settings, and my latest run of the CEICW.
Here
is
the link:
http://cerberus.clearwave.com/jerry/RDF_Configuration.pdf

- The RWW/OWA/etc is still not working offsite? (tried
https://rdfrubber.dyndns.org/remote)

- The Email is still not working properly? (tried POP3 connector,
mail
receives fine, cannot send?, Deleted POP3 connector emails, tried
Use
DNS,
tried Forward all , tried Use Exchange, etc..but all email comes
in
fine,
but
will not go out?)

I have gone thru the CEICW mutltiple times trying lots of
different
combinations, but none seem to be right? On a positive note, I did
get
the
Linksys and the Outside NIC configured correctly. Thanks to all
for
suggesting the correct settings there. (Internet works great!)

ps: As mentioned earlier, I do have access to all of the Domain
stuff
at
Register.com including:
RR DNS Record Type
----- -------------------------
- A Edit IP Address Records
- AAAA Edit IPv6 Address Records
- CNAME Edit Domain Aliases Records
- MX Edit Mail Exchanger Records
- TXT Edit TXT Records (SPF)
- PTR Edit Pointer Records and Reverse Zones
- SRV Edit SRV Records

Thanks again,
jaa

Port Forwarding... As long as you're confortable with doing any
remote
server management/administration using RWW to access the SBS
server,
only
forwarding ports 443 and 4125 would be OK. There are other ports
that
can
be useful from time to time (3389, 1723, etc.) and eventually
you'll
need
to
forward port 25 for Exchange mail when you quick using the POP3
Connector.
But keep it simple for now until you get your feet wet.

POP3 Connector... No. There is no way to configure the POP3
Connector
to
"leave a copy on the server".

One way around this might be to have the Blackberry user access
his
mail
through Outlook Web Access (OWA), which is the little brother of
Outlook
2003 (the interface is very similar). You access OWA by typing:
https://rdfrubber.dyndns.org/exchange and then use your SBS
username
and
password at the OWA logon screen. Since OWA only requires port
443,
you
wouldn't have to forward any additional ports. When you re-run
CEICW,
you
would need to select Outlook Web Access (in addition to Remote
Web
Workplace) on the Web Services Configuration screen. By using
OWA,
all
mail
is kept on the SBS server, and replies are sent from there as
well.
Basically, OWA is just a different way to view and use an
Exchange
mailbox
on the SBS server. No need to "leave a copy" since the user
would be
accessing his Exchange mailbox directly via his Blackberry.

Merv, You are sure a wealth of specific information and I as a
new
comer
really appreciate the help you and everyone gives to the forum.

I will definitely only get the RWW going first, use the POP3
connector
for
Incoming email, and hopefully let Verizon be the
relay/smarthost for
Outgoing
email?

I also have already downloaded the Dyndns application and it is
running
in
the Taskbar of SBS, showing the Dynamic IP from Verizon and the
new
rdfrubber@xxxxxxxxxx Domain.

Regarding the Port Forwarding mentioned earlier, it sounds like
I
only
need
to do the ports for RWW?

ps: Yes they have POP3 emails with Register.com and I'll addd
those
to
the
POP3 connector. Do you know if there is a way to tell the
POP3/Exchange
connector on SBS to "Leave a copy of messages on the
Register.com
server"?
