Ok, I have a webserver that I am running win2000 server on and wingate to share the internet to all the offices in this building. I have been trying to set up the website for this company on the web server and its directly behind the router that is connected to the net connection. It's the ISPs router and im not sure if im allowed to go in front of it and i dont really want to. I have had the ports forwarded to the web server or so the tech support guy for my ISP says. I tried shutting off wingate and it still doesnt work. I have wingate configured to allow servers to run behind it .. but that doesnt work either. I can view the site internally on the intranet, just not from the internet and i have no clue whats wrong. I do have two NIC cards in the webserver, one going to the intranet from which the net is shared from and one coming from the router connected to the net. I dont know if theres a way i can bind a certain one so that IIS sends out to one and not the other? i really dont know. Any help would be appreciated, thanks.
Your ISP probally blocks incomming traffic on port 80. Try chaning the port; here are the instructions from Micro$oft. 1. Open Internet Service Manager. 2. Right-click the Web site that you want to change. 3. Click Properties. 4. Click the Web Site tab. 5. Change the TCP Port Number in the TCP Port edit box (or click Advanced for multiple Port settings). 6. Click OK to save the changes.
I've already talked to my ISP and they said they have opened the ports i needed (including 80) and forwarded them to my web server. I've probed the ports as well and it says that port 80 is open. In IIS the TCP port for my site is set to 80. ?????????
you could try getting nmap for windows and run a port scan on the server running iis and see what ports are open jsut to double check that iis is working. may i ask though why do you need wingate if you have a router?? if you still do need it try going into wingate and mapping 80 to localhost 127.0.0.1 and see if that makes any differnece
well we need wingate for the net sharing to all the other businesses i guess ... it was all already set up when i was hired here ... BUT i got it working .. actually it might have been working before i posted this thread but i guess i couldnt test it from the inside cause i think the NAT translation didnt like translating the same ip out and back in .. i dont know .. but it works ... so thats all that matters .. thanks for the help though
