I think he means it should ask for a password and it doesnt. Im not sure mind. I didnt know you could get access to server manager from the external network

I have the domain name CVLCC.com on the server but after 3 days the regester is not pointing it to my server. So I need help to see if it is pointing to the server correctly?
2) help gettong dns for domain name for this ip address 66.126.84.172

This is an issue you need to take up with whoever is supplying your domain name, also have you setup forwarding and DNS record correctly?

This is not an SMEServer issue.

Server-Manager is only accessible from within the local network.

Server-Manager is only accessible from within the local network.

That is correct to a point ... as a default it's only accessible internally ... But ... you can open it up to external as well as thats how I do my test units.

Even if you open it up to external usage it still asks for user/password.

One trap that ppl fall into is when once you access the server-manager page and close the internet browser ... then re-open it ... it won't as you for the user/pass every time ... once it has let you in it seems to let you in again without asking.

This is not an SME problem ... I think it's just the caching or someting like that of the internet browser.

Someone with more experiance within that area could clarify it a bit more.
