Title: local web access
Post by: g270546 on July 16, 2002, 07:57:35 PM
I am using the SME for a firewal basically.  I have the web server on a W2K machine that is connected to the SME server on a network.  I am trying to port forward the www address to the IIS server using the local settings of the hostnames.  I am not having any luck.  Any suggestions.

Thanks.

I don't know if this is your solution but it might work.
I use the ProxyPass directive to do something similar.

Check these links to see if they help.

Are you tring to do something like

www1.domain.com -> box1.localdomain
www2.domain.com -> box2.localdomain

With only one external ip?  If so, ProxyPass works pretty well.  It does seem to be a little slow to me.

If you just want all incoming web traffic to point to an internal box. search for port forwarding on the forums.  There are a few thousand threads.  There is a port forwarding control panel you can install, though I don't know if it works for 5.5.  You can also edit the ipchains rules manually to forward port 80/443/etc to an internal ip.

There is a ProxyPass contrib that was just recently posted.  It lets you configure everything thru the server-manager.
