[MLB-WIRELESS] OT - but I need help

Thu Jul 14 23:27:19 EST 2005

Thanks for that, Yep I saw a ISAPI workaround that would have solved my
problem......chose not to go down that path, looked like it was a
potential disaster if you didn't know what you were doing (see my other
post about ISA pricing).

Cheers,

Dean

Hi all,

Considering I am mainly a tech that puts *nix based hosts exposed on the
net, i.e. through routers. I havn't really used IIS/Windows in large
installs due to the maintenance involved, i.e. patches etc.

After speaking to a few guys @ work, ISA is the way to go. It appears to
be able to do what you want to do, however I have heard of people using
ISAPI plugins to do some nasty hacks to forward requests. Quite
interesting really, I might do some googling to see what I can find.

Thanks

Mathew

Yup,

Matthew's got it in one here. mod_proxy will let you do this (I also use
it to mix between linux/apache and windows/IIS servers on a single
IP:port combo), but I'm not sure about IIS.

The other option is a proxy server that supports reverse proxying (HTTP
load balancing), such as squid - It's possible there's some other proxy
software that's easy/windows friendly that can also do this.

Cheers,

    Fenn.

	Hi all,

	I can see what Dean is trying to do here, but I don't believe
IIS supports it. It appears you want to do a proxy to your internal
apache server based on the host header. I know apache can do it using
mod_proxy... I have been using it for years for a number of servers held
internally in the LAN in a school, i.e. weather station server, library
catalogues. Mainly because they are all Windows boxes, and we only have
2 linux boxes on the net with public IPs all doing web hosting / mail
handling. Trust me its funny when netcraft comes back with Windows IIS
6.0 running on Linux 2.4 :-)

	I will ask some guys at work in regards to your issue Dean, but
I wouldn't hold my breath to solve the issue.

	Maybe put the Linux box on the net with the external IP and run
the SBS box internally and use apache's mod_proxy to forward
www.cognation.net <http://www.cognation.net/>  and www.collins.net.pr
<http://www.collins.net.pr/>  to the SBS box?

	Thanks

	Mathew

	No it is not a problem with port 80. I am successfully hosting
my 2 sites www.cognation.net <http://www.cognation.net/>  and
www.collins.net.pr <http://www.collins.net.pr/>  on the sbs 2003 server
fine, I just need to know how to redirect www.aussienymeetup.net
<http://www.aussienymeetup.net/>  to my linux apache server.

	might have to forward port 81 to the Linux box?

	Optusnet blocks port 80 too

	Thanks Brenton

		It has it's own domain that is being redirected by
www.no-ip.com to the sbs server hanging off my cable modem.

		But no it doesn't have it's own ip address.

			I know this is OT but I need help and I figure
some of the gurus in here probably know their way around both linux AND
windows.

			I have a new website application that wont run
on windows, currently I host 
			my own company domain (and a smaller private web
site selected by host 
			headers) on my sbs 2003 server, this new website
will be hosted on a new 
			linux server.

			I have purchased a linux server and it is now
connected to my lan (cable 
			modem - sbs server 2003 with two nics, 1
external & 1 internal - 16 port 
			gigabit switch) it is accessible now from within
my lan by both internal ip 
			address and web domain name (enabled using dns
pointer).

			I know how to set up a web site in the www root
folder of sbs 2003, I also 
			know how to redirect it to the web folder of
another windows machine but I 
			don't know how to redirect it to the web folder
of a linux machine.

			Currently if you go to www.newwebsite.net the
internet name servers points 
			it to the ip address of my sbs 2003 server via
www.no-ip.com (which works 
			great for my main domain (and smaller private
domain) etc that are running 
			on the server).

			But this newwebsite is running on a linux server
on my lan with the internal ip 
			address of 192.168.16.15

			When I type in http://192.168.16.15 it works
great,
			When I type in
http://linuxserverip.company.local it works great as well

			And finally
			When I type in www.newwebsite.net it works fine
for me because my dns knows 
			to point to http://linuxserverip.company.local
However if you type that in 
			from outside my lan it fails.

			How do i redirect to a linux webserver on my
domain using iis 6.0 and sbs 2003??

			Cheers,
			Dean
