I'm having trouble getting MS Proxy Server to work properly on my system running NT Server 4 with SBS. In short, our DSL modem can make a connection with our ISP but we can't surf the web (at the bottom of the broswer it lists "connecting to site 127.0.0.1" when we put in a web address like yahoo.com). I know the DSL modem works; we can hook it up to our Mac without any problem. And at one point I was able to change some settings an get Telnet to work on the server, but I've since changed the settings and can't reproduce that. I should also note that I'm no longer able to access the SBS Console on the server (this happened after installing the second NIC). This, coupled with my limited success with Telnet and the "connecting to site 127.0.0.1" message in the browser, leads me to believe that our Web/Socks/WinSock properties or TCP/IP properties need to be changed. I bought the MS IIS/Proxy Server Training Kit ($100-ouch!), but it hasn't been any help.
Our DSL provider (SNET; I'm in CT) uses PPPoE. I have two NICs installed, an Intel Pro/100+ which came with the system (Dell Poweredge 1300) and a Kingston EtheRx VP (KNE110TX) which I installed. When I installed the driver for the Kingston NIC the TCP/IP Properties screen appeared and prompted me to enter an IP address and subnet mask, so I entered 64.252.47.196 (this is our Static IP from SNET) and 255.255.255.0, respectively. The Intel NIC had been assigned 10.0.0.2 as its IP and the same subnet mask. The DSL line is hooked into the Kingston NIC and and the hub is connected to the Intel NIC.
Our plan of action should be the following:
1. Go through each menu within the TCP/IP Properties screen so I can set my configurations correctly.
2. Go through the settings for the EnterNet 300 software to make sure they are set correctly. EnterNet is our service provider's software that uses PPoE to provide the DSL connection.
3. Go through the properties of the Web Proxy, Socks Proxy, and WinSock Proxy in the IIS console to make sure they are set correctly.
* Note: When I connected the DSL modem to the Mac, one of EnterNet screens listed the Primary DNS as 204.60.0.2 and the Secondary DNS as 204.60.0.3. I thought I'd mention this in the case we need them later.
1. TCP/IP PROPERTIES (I'm listing what is set; perhaps you can point out any mistakes)
IP Addres Tab: For the Intel NIC, which is connected to our LAN, has an IP address of 10.0.0.2, Subnet Mask of 255.255.255.0, and nothing listed as the Gateway. Should I put our Static IP address given by SNET as the Gateway? For the Kingston NIC, the IP address is 64.252.47.196, Subnet Mask of 255.255.255.0, and nothing listed as the Gateway. Also listed in the Adapter pull-down menu is Network TeleSystems PPPoE Adapter. This was installed by the EnterNet program, so I'm not sure what this is. Perhaps it's for the DSL modem itself. This adapter's IP address is 64.252.47.196, the Subnet Mask is 255.255.255.0, and it's Gateway is 64.252.47.196.
DNS Tab: Everthing in here is blank except for the Host Name field which has "server", the name of our server (yeah, yeah, pretty original). I haven't a clue as to what, if anything, I should put in these fields. I don't know much about DNS.
WINS Address Tab: for the Intel NIC the WINS Severs are both 10.0.0.2, for the Kingston NIC they are both 64.252.47.196, and for the PPPoE adapter they are both 0.0.0.0. At the bottom of the screen, Enable DNS for Windows Resolution is NOT checked, Enable LMHOSTS lookup IS checked, and nothing is listed in the Scope ID field.
DHCP Relay Tab: Seconds Threshold and Maximum hops are both set at 4. Nothing is listed in the DHCP Servers field. I should note that we had a long time ago added Microsoft DHCP Server within the Services setting of the Network Control Panel. Should we add an IP address in the DHCP Servers field?
Routing Tab: Enable IP forwarding is NOT checked, as it should not be.
2. ENTERNET 300 SETTINGS
The properties box for EnterNet 300 has three tabs that we will examine: TCP, Configurations, and Services.
TCP Tab: At the top of this screen one may check either "Server-Assigned IP Address" or "Specify an IP Address". We choose to specify our IP address and have listed 64.252.47.196. The next selection is between "Server assigned DNS/NBNS Addresses" or "Specify DNS/NBNS Addresses". This is set to "Server assigned DNS/NBNS Addresses". There are a few check boxes at the bottom: the "Use default gateway on remote network" IS selected, and the "Use IP Header Compression" box is NOT selected.
Configuration Tab: At the top is a pull down menu listing the two NICs. There are three options, all of which are NOT selected: Require encryptions, Log on to the netowrk, and Do not modify route metrics when connecting.
Services Tab: At the top there are two field, one for Server and one for Service. A box below this lists all of the available Services. Sometimes services are listed as available, and sometimes they aren't. Right now In the Server field at the top is "41021099931221-RedBack2".
3. SOCKS/WEB/WINSOCK PROXY PROPERTIES (all are shown as running in IIS)
*I'm only going to list the relevant tabs here
SOCKS PROXY
Permissions Tab: One line is listed here. Under Action is "Permit", under Source is "All", under Destination is "All", Under Operation is "GE", under port is "0", and the two Mask categories nothing is listed.
WEB PROXY
Permissions Tab: The "Enable access control" check box is NOT selected.
Routing Tab: In the "Use this Http Via header for the local server" field is the computer name "server". Under the Upstream Routing category, "Use direct connection" IS selected and "Use web proxy or array" is NOT selected.
WINSOCK PROXY
Permissions Tab: The "Enable access control" check box is NOT selected.
I'd appreciate any input you could offer.
