webmail-ssl port forwarding problem
« on: October 23, 2006, 07:43:45 PM »
I have replaced a customers netpilot box with a SME server box. All appears to work apart from the webmail/horde. I get the certificate box come up and click yes to that but then it does not go any further.

The network is configured as follows :

Router - external IP - port forwarding rules for http, https to go to 192.168.1.200 (SME)

SME server
Ext interface - 192.168.1.200
Int interface - 192.168.42.200 (rest of pc's etc are on this range)

If I connect my laptop into either the wan or lan side interfaces inside the network I can access the webmail fine.

Router https worked before and the port forwarding ip is the same as the old netpilot box.

Web access is enabled in the server manager.

Thanks

Just to say that port 80 and also tried port 22 (ssh) also work ok. Just seems to be ssl (445) that causes problem.

I looked through the /var/log/httpd/error_log this morning.... is this error related to the problem....

[warn] RSA server certificate CommonName (CN) 'server.domain.local' does not match server name!?

I did change the local domain name by doing the reconfigure as I was testing the server and when I went to install at customers the domain conflicted with their windows server. Does the ssl certifcate have to be redone? - or am I on the wrong track as it seems to work from behind the router - just not from the web.

I managed to get it working once by constant retries - but then the menu on the left hand side dissappeared.

Any pointers greatly appreciated!

Thanks
