Title: How do I setup a DMZ
Post by: edlentz on February 05, 2006, 10:26:48 PM

I need to expose a machine on my network to the internet.  I am using SME in Server/Gateway mode.  Is there a How to somewhere?

Thanks

On the left hand nav, go to port forwarding.  Is you need more specific info, repost.

You can't (at least not without doing major surgery). You can expose selected ports on the machine, using port forwarding.

Port forwarding isn't working I can't  get to an Apache server behind the SME Server.  Enetered a bug report several days ago, been trying things there, was looking for another way.

Thanks

It's not a bug...

I had the same question. As the SME box has already an Apache/httpd server, you need to configure this server via the template-custom system of the httpd.conf to forward all the adresses you want for the http.

I.e.: if you want http://www2.mydomain.com to point to a local machine
or http://www.mydomain.com/serveur2/ or both, or more.

To know how to do it, simply search in the apache docs.

You can trigger port but it will works only from the outside of the LAN: trigger port public IP 8080 (on ethernet card 0)  to IPlocalmachine 80 (on ethernet card 1) => http://www.mydomain.com:8080/bonjour.htm will only works from the outside. Inside not working because you are working only on the eth card 1 !

For other protocols, you need to trigger port, or destroy the architecture of the sme if it is already working a deamon for this protocol.

Is is possilble to use the hostnames section of server-manager and publish the internal workstation globally?

I do not know how to ellaborate on this more but just thought this might generate some discussion on the possibility.
