Hi all
Apologise if this question has been answered before as I myself could not get an valid answer in terms of problems I am facing.
I have One server setup with all the RD roles.
All the certificates are issued from local CA and it's trusted in the internal network for clients.
RDGateway is setup with the same certificates as other ones since all of the roles are in one server.
so INTERNAL FQDN is RDSH-Farm1.domain.co.uk
RDGATEWAY rap and cap policies are setup fine.
Everything works internally but not externally.
All the necessary ports are opened on my firewall, although 443 and port 80 is required but for testing purposes I left most of the RDS ports open.
So here is the main problem. I have given a public IP address from my ISP for NAT purposes and I'm using it for my RDWA, Obviously I can't use my domain.co.uk/rdweb to browse to my iis since it's not on the internet instead i use public ip 2.3.4.5/rdweb and it works I am able login to the website without a problem but soon I try to remote desktop to RDSH I get an error saying "RD gateway is not reachable"
does that mean I can't use IP/rdweb to get access to my server instead I need a FQDN that is resolvable on the internet?
but why is that? what's stopping rd gateway to get access to my work resources internally?
and obviously I understand I need an SSL cert so the site looks trusted and genuine or is there more to it?
Is there way to link my NAT IP to my FQDN (such as my internal iis webserver) so that It's resolvable on the net and I can get access to my RDgateway?
I know i bombered with questions but if anyone can tell me what exactly I need from a to z to make this thing work???????
Thanks In advance
