Hi guys: I have an SBS 2003 network (2 NICS), behind a LinkSys firewall. I
have set up the router to forward the following ports to my SBS Server:
- 80
- 443 to 444
- 3389
- 4125

Internally, the web-based services (company web site, OWA and Remote Web
Workplace) all work fine, but I can't connect from an external computer. I
CAN connect using Remote Desktop Connection, but that's it.

I admit that web services are my weak point, so I'm probably doing something
wrong. What I'm doing is pulling up a browser and entering

http://{external address of router}/remote

This just returns a timeout error. I've looked at the documentation, and
googled this issue, but so far I've gotten nothing that looks like my
situation.

Someone shed some light?

TIA

can you get to the site internally?
 
FYI this NG is actually for a very old version of SBS
 
You would be better off in microsoft.windows.server.sbs
