[MLB-WIRELESS] OT - but I need help

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
