Remote Server Admin not working from outside of network for 1 server

Our company recently changed ISPs and I had to change our two 10.4 server's IP addresses. We have a mail server (intel xserve) and a file/web server (quicksilver g4). Both servers have two network cards in them. The problem is two-fold:
1- I can successfully manage the Xserve machine locally on our network and from my home. However, I can only manage the Quicksilver g4 server locally. Any kind of external access is not even acknowledged.
2- I'm not sure if I missed any steps when changing IP addresses for these server-based computers. Also, I'm not sure if I correctly set our dns names to the correct IP address.
For some background, this is the exact IP update process I used for each server:
Quicksilver G4 (file/web server) - Installed network card #2 and configured it with the new Public IP in the "System Preferences/Network" panel. In Server Admin I set our website to use the new public IP address. (network card #2 has no firewall device in between it and the internet.)
Then, I configured the default network card #1 to a static, yet private IP address that's behind our DLink firewall device with the rest of our network.
Intel Xserve (e-mail server) - Network card #1 was the only one setup before our network change. It had a static, public IP address. When we changed ISPs, I configured network card #2 to the new static, public IP address supplied to us by the new ISP in the "System Preferences/Network" panel. This new IP address is where all email traffic currently gets pointed to. (All mail is successfully sent and delivered.) Until our former ISP gets shutdown, I still have network card #1 configured to the older static public IP address. After the old ISP is shut off, I plan on changing network card #1 to a static, private address.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

What should I check in AD?  I am by no means an expert with AD.
Yes, I am using the same client OS.
I am talking about RDP over the internet, like from home to the office.  We have a static IP assigned to the router from ISP.  A static internal IP assigned to the server on the LAN.  And the router port forwards 3389 to the assigned IP. 
It was working fine before we reinstalled Server 2012.  These are the steps I took when reinstalling:
1. format drive and install OS
2. rename the server
3. install SQL server
4. Install TFS and SharePoint
5. Add Active Directory role and promote to Domain Controller
6. Add domain users
7. Enable remote access on the server and add users to remote access list

  • SMB not working from outside local network

    Hello,
    On my old MacBook I installed OS X Server to create a file sharing server.  I set it up using my public IP address so that I could access my files from outside the local network.  I don't have an Apple router, but I found the port number for SMB and AFP and did the port forwarding.  My issue is that smb stopped working.  It used to work out side the network because it tested it.  My Mac can still connect though outside the local network using my public IP.  I have no clue why SMB is not working as it was working recently.  My only idea is that I got a new modem from my ISP.  Could that make a difference?  I don't get it because AFP still works fine.  File sharing using SMB is checked in the server app and file sharing preferences so it is not that.  I am using OS X 10.8.4 on a MacBook running OS X Server version 2.2.1.  Any help would be appreciated. 
    Thanks,
    Michael

    Is it a modem only, or is it a modem/router that might be creating a double-NAT on your network?
    Incidentally, since you're running Server, you might want to use the built-in VPN gateway to give yourself better security - tunneling AFP/SMB through a router/firewall is pretty insecure.

  • Do I need a domain name in order to connect to my Mini Server 10.8.2 from outside my network?

    I am working on setting up my mac mini server. Aside from in home file sharing I want ot be able to connect to some files remotely and even upload files, say pictures from my camera, to my server from outside my network. I am only looking to have maybe 2 users that have access. Should I get a domain name from a place like GoDaddy? in order to set up server to use domain in initial setup? I have 2 Drobos connected with my music, videos and pictures and I wat to access them from an Android, Windows and iPod device when away from home. Any how-tos out there or good step by step guides?
    Thanks for any information.

    A normal address like www.domain.com is intended to work with static IP addresses, DynDNS is a service specifically intended for dynamic addresses and it will therefore automatically update the address e.g. name.dyndns.org to match the dynamic IP address each time it changes.
    Some home broadband routers have built-in support to act as a DynDNS client but if yours does not then you can run the DynDNS software on your Mac server. This will then tell the DynDNS servers what your current dynamic IP address is so they can map it to your host name.
    The result will be that your users can use a name like yourname.dyndns.org to access your server and not have to worry about the fact your IP address may change.
    You would still need to run a VPN server to allow your remote users to connect to your network but OS X Server can do this. You could also run a website but depending on your needs that might be better done by using a web hosting service.

  • Windows server anywhere access not working from outside the lan

    ok so heres what i have done so far i installed windows server 2012 essential on a computer followed the wizard to add a couple of users and gave them anywhere access followed the wizard and ran the anywhere access to completion setup the ports 80 and 443
    on router manually to forward to my router ip 10.0.1.20 
    my server is still on dynamic ip
    then i go to a windows 7 ultimate computer whent to the connect url downloaded the connect tool ran to completion and restarted the computer so far everything working inside my lan i can connect to the server see shared files and open the dash management
    now i go outside connect to a wired or wireless network of a friend and try to connect to http://xxxxxxx.remotewebaccess.com
    but am unsuccessfull then i check on my network adapter page and see that there is a new adapter that is called as my remotewebaccess.com so i click on it and try to connect but still fails........
    please help what am i doing wrong?
    i checked everywhere and cant find a solution.
    Thank you

    It is probably better to assign a static IP to your server, but OTH it may not change.  But you really hate to go off on vacation and have the ip change and everything break.
    Now you said you forwarded ports 80 and 443 to your router, I bet you meant your server?
    Do www.whatismyip.com and from outside ping xxxx.remotewebaccess.com and make sure they are true same ip
    From a PC or the server on your network go to grc.com and do shields up and make sure it reports 80 and 443 as open

  • Print Queue Management via Server Admin not working

    We have Xserves (10.5.8) running the Print Service for queue management to our printers. Clients print through the server just fine.
    When the printer jams or is otherwise paused, print jobs pile up in the queue as expected. The queue can be seen and managed by logging into the server, going to Server Preferences/Print & Fax and selecting the print queue.
    However, when the queue for the paused printer is viewed within Server Admin/Print, the queue shows as empty and therefore can't be managed. We want to use Server Admin for this function because:
    1) Server Admin can be run remotely on a workstation, so no login to the server required.
    2) We can assign Print Service management rights to select non-admins so they can manage the queues.
    Any ideas on why Server Admin fails to show spooled jobs? Is it working for anyone else?
    I am using Server Admin version 10.5.3 which are the latest available that comes with Server Admin Tools 10.5.7. We had been running 10.5.7 on the Xserve and it didn't work then either.

    Here's a bit more information about our setup and our experiences with Apple's CUPS implementation:
    On the server, all printer queues are set up with only lpr and ipp sharing enabled with the PPD setting for each printer set to Generic Postscript. We found that setting the PPD to the printer specific one on the server caused problems when clients tried to use printer specific options, like paper tray selection, etc.. The selection would be undone, apparently because the driver on the server would override the previous settings. Using Generic Postscript allows the client PPD settings to go through unmodified. Our printers are general a mix of HP LaserJets and some Sharp Copiers.
    All clients use lpd to the server queues with the printers' actual PPDs configured. Using ipp is superior in that printer feedback (jams, out of toner, etc) makes it back to the clients, but ipp only works when the client, the server, and the printer are on the same network. If the ipp client is not on the same network, the client spooler immediately goes into a paused state and the print job is stuck on the client.
    Using lpd to the server queues works reliably, but there is no feedback to the client. Jobs disappear from the client queue and go to the server, appearing to the user as a successful print. If the printer is down, there's nothing they can see or do about it.

  • Share point in server admin not working correctly... I think

    I suspect that the share point in server admin is not working correctly. In workgroup manager when I click on a user and then click on the "home" tab, under the full path field I see a file path of:
    afp://server.mydomain.com/Users
    However if I go to Server Admin -> AFP -> Share Points then click on the Users share and then click on the share point tab below, enable auto mount is disabled. How can this be possible? I thought for a directory to show up in home in workgroup manager it had to be set as an auto mount. Has something possibly corrupted? And what?

  • 301 Wiki SSL redirect via Server Admin not working

    I can't get http://myserver.com/wiki to redirect to https://myserver.com/wiki. I have other 301 redirects to send users to https pages working fine. How can I fix this? Thanks for your time - it's much appreciated. (Mavericks/Server Admin 3.1.2)

    Regarding the redirect, I don't really understand why it's not possible. You can edit the non-SSL website in Web and add a 301 for /Wiki to redirect to https://myserver.com/wiki. In fact you can redirect the entire site to SSL - but that is problematic. I can understand why Mavericks server would be designed to automatically use SSL for wiki logins, if it's available. I only looked at redirects because this was not working. Without a redirect or with a redirect - I can login to Wiki via non-SSL or SSL. Where (specifically in which text file) are these redirects created using Server Admin written to? I can't find them in apache2/httpd.conf. Thanks again for your help.

  • SMB not working from outside the local network

    Hi guys..
    I've set up a storage server so that users can log in remotely and access their files. I have two connections I want to use, AFP and SMB. The AFP connections work great. No matter where our mac users are, they can log in through the net and get to their shares.
    With SMB, I'm currently having a nightmare! I can't log in from other internet connections. I've checked and double checked routers, ports, etc. I have even turned everything (in terms of firewalls) off for testing. Still nothing with SMB. BUT - If I connect to the same machine with smb://127.0.0.1/ I can log in fine. If I try to connect with smb://<server ip address> then it still doesn't work.
    I either get one of these 2 messages:
    Data could not be read or written.
    Username and Password are incorrect (even though I havn't supplied a username or password yet!)
    Any help will be golden! Thanks a lot!
    -Mel

    Thanks a lot for the feedback.. Turns out the connection i'm testing it on (Virgin Media) does block SMB (port 445). Before I look into VPN, is it possible to change the port that SMB is operating on?
    Is it easy to log in with VPN through WindowsXP? Can I send a similar string like smb:user:password@server to gain access to a VPN share through windows? Even through cmd will be fine as I intend on writing a program that can do that. I just need to know if it's possible. As I said, forgive my stupidity, I've never setup VPN before.. I think it's the only thing I havn't really dabbled in yet..
    Thanks!

  • Remote URL is not working from html embedded as3 code

    Hello,
    i am working on a flash currency converter application, for that purpose i am fetching the latest currency rates from yahoo,
    i am using flash cs5 and as3, i am getting the desired response from yahoo when i run the flash file from Flash cs5 (ctrl+enter) and also after publishing (F12) by opening the html file just created by flash cs5.
    BUT
    when i am moving the html and swf file over a web server (WAMP in my case), the response from yahoo is no longer working for me, i have checked it in both localhost, and on remote server.
    what can be the issue? it seems so strange to me..
    any positive and quick response in this regard will be highly appreciated.

  • Set up LAMP server, but not viewable from outside.

    I set up a LAMP server, followed the guide http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/LAMP there.  I can view it from localhost or the IP address or the web address http://plaufcan.homeunix.org.  But it is not viewable outside of my local network.  What else do I have to do?

    If your router is showing an external IP address of 192.x.x.x, I am guessing that you are on a DSL line, and that you more than likely used the windows setup software to configure your internet connection.
    Basically, when you run the software, many of the modems go into a very dumb router configuration.  Your router is picking up a natted ip address from the modem, and using that to update dyndns. 
    # nslookup plaufcan.homeunix.org
    Non-authoritative answer:
    Name: plaufcan.homeunix.org
    Address: 192.168.2.101
    I'll bet you dollars to donuts that you can open your browser and go to http://192.168.2.1 (or alternatively http://192.168.2.254) and you'll get access to the modem.  You'll have to find the page that allows it to be set to a bridge.   After that, you'll have to set the router up to do any authentication that your ISP requires.   
    One of the large ISP's in Canada use modems like this for their DSL,  and it causes no end of problem when SOHO users add another router.  NATted NAT connections do not always play nice.

  • VPN server does not work when a second network adapter is enabled

    I have an Xserve providing DNS, filesharing, and VPN services on an office LAN. The server sits behind a gateway router and is set as a DMZ host.
    VPN has been working absoluely flawlessly on the server for some time. However, I've recently discovered that this all changes when the Xserve's second ethernet adapter is enabled.
    To illustrate:
    en0: static IP 192.168.2.250
    en1: disabled
    VPN works perfectly
    en0: static IP 192.168.2.250
    en1: static IP 192.168.2.251
    DNS settings unchanged, DMZ host unchanged
    VPN doesn't work
    The above is even true when attempting to connect internally.
    VPN is configured for L2TP, and when the second NIC is connected the VPN server logs the following (below). There are a number of other users of Lion Server users that seem to be experiencing the same log pattern, but there doesn't seem to be a definitive solution.
    I was wondering if anyone has any advice on how I could solve this problem? Is it possible to bind the VPN server to a specified network adapter?
    Thanks in advance for any help or ideas.
    (And to preempt the question of "why do you need to use both NICs", the two interfaces are to be used for load balancing. See https://discussions.apple.com/message/17655599?ac_cid=142432)

  • Me outgoing mail server not working from iPhone / Reply to email address

    Hi, I have MM sent up on my iPhone and Mac, the SMTP outgoing mail server does not work from the iPhone but does from the Mac, to get around this I changed the outgoing server on the iPhone to my optusnet outgoing server, that has been working fine, the problem I have is if someone reply's to a email from the phone it gets bounced back becuase the reply to email address for me is @mac.com not from @me.com
    I have tried to change the reply to email address in the phone but it only allows you to change the name not the @mac.com
    I have only ever had a Me account not a .Mac account so I dont know why its locked to @mac

    I deleted the MM account on the phone and reinstalled it again. Now it is working.

  • Verizon mail deleted from server is not deleted from IPAD2 but works fine on Android

    I have both an Android phone and an IPAD.  This Android (RAZR) and my previous one (Droid2) worked fine.   Mail deleted from the server is also deleted from the phone.  Deleted from phone would delete from server.  Worked great.  On IPAD, when setting up the Verizon mail account, it defaults to POP and I can set it to delete from server when removed from IPAD.  However, mail deleted from the server is not deleted from the IPAD and so I have to remove it manually (a second time).  Why does it work on Android and not on IPAD?  Settings on Android appear to also be for POP.  Can anyone help with this?  It's too hard to believe that with so many people using IPADs, that this is such a problem.   I've read that Verizon isn't supporting IMAP, but how in the world is the Android phone working?
    MrBigHands

    Any mail service POP downloads a copy of the message to the phone. It would then need to be deleted from the device itself. What you are referring to where its deleted in both places is an IMAP type email service.
