Default Site access over WAN



I have a WAN setup between our main office and a smaller office. We are
using a remote office VPN connection through watchgaurd firewalls. We have a
single Win2K domain with domain controllers at both sites. These servers
also handle AD integrated DNS.

On a server in the main site we host 4 different web sites. Users at the
other site can access the Intranet site which in not available outside of
our domain. But if they try to open the other 3 sites they can't. Users at
the main site can access all sites.

This is a Win2k Server w/ SP4 and IIS 5. All sites use the same IP address.
The Intranet site is through an CNAME record and all others use an A record.
I have multiple IP's setup that can be used if needed.

What do I need to do to get this working.

Default Site access over WAN



Hello,

On a client machine where it fails to access the website, do this:

nslookup example.com

where example.com is the domain name you are trying to access. Does it
resolve? Does it resolve to the wrong machine?

If this did not help, please tell us your meaning of "can't open the other 3
websites". What does this mean? You get an error message in the browser?
(can't open a website can be anything from network problems to security
access, so we need to know what this means to you)

Connectivity between the workstation and the site. Since no one here
knows what you mean when you say "if they try to open the other 3
sites they can't" we can only assume it might be that when they try
they fall backward off thier charis, pulling the network cord from the
back of the computer. Or maybe something else.

FWIW, if everyone at the main site can access the sites properly, it's
not your IIS configuration.

What happens when you try to access these web sites is you get typical page
can not be displayed message.

When I ran the nslookup command the the address that gets resolved is the
gateway address for that site in our domain. The main site uses a 172.16.x.x
subnet and the other site uses 192.168.1.x
