Remote desktop routing through W2k3 server HOW

Hi
I just installed a new sbs2003 with two networks.

NIC #1 192.168.1.1 = is local to all clients
NIC #2 192.168.2.2 = is connected to the Internet DSL router

This means the Server firewall is between clients and internet.

The DSL router forwards port 3389 to a client with a static IP of
192.168.1.100
I can attach remote connection from the server to the client
(Proving client is ready)

I can remote connect from the internet to the server
(proving the server is ready)

==================================================
I cannot connect from the internet through the server to the client!
==================================================

Surely some form or routing must be setup. But where and how.
I am not familiar with routing an example would be appreciated.
Or is it just a firewall setting?


Thanks
Dekaya

NB: SBS questions are best asked in microsoft.public.windows.server.sbs. SBS
is its own beast and does a lot of things its own way.

I don't recommend using that, myself. I would suggest a hardware firewall
appliance if you aren't using Premium (with ISA), and in that case, I
wouldn't use two NICs
at all.

What errors do you get?

One question first - why are you using this rather than Remote Web
Workplace, which makes remote desktop available via a web page, and no
individual computer needs to be addressed directly via 3389 from there?
Using 443 and 4125, and https://my.publicdomain.com/remote or
https://mypublicIP/remote will get you there.

You should enable NAT on the SBS since it has two NICs. Then do port forwarding to point port 3389 to the 192.168.1.100.

You also have another two options: RWW and VPN.

Hi Robert;
Thanks for responding.

I was pretty sure port forwarding was the answer but I just don't know
where on the server to go to do that.

I already did it and NAT on the Internet hub and it works when I point
it to the Server 192.168.2.2 So I know it is right
I of course then change it back to the client 192.168.1.100.



But where on the server do I port forward?

And in case I can't find it where do I enable NAT on the server?


Thanks
Dekaya

Voila! IT worked.

Thanks so much!
