January 26, 200521 yr Newbies Hello, I am using FMSA7 on a windows 2000 server, static ip. I have been trying to use the IWP thru the server advanced. Now I have been thru the config and I can see access the database on any client machine using the servers IP. I can not access it from outside thru the net. I do have the router port(i tried ports 80/591/50003/50006) fowarded to the server IP. Did I miss something in the setup? I also noticed in the IIS setup under Master properties the port is set to 80 and is greyed(so I cant change it) could that be my problem? Now if I stop the FM service and run my database using Fmpro7 and turn on sharing/IWP using port 591. It works fine. But limits me to the 5 connections. Any help would be great, Brian
January 28, 200521 yr I'm not an expert, but I do know that a web server needs to be running on the server for FMSA7 to use IWP (unlike FM6). Is your IIS webserver actually started and configured to the IP you are trying to use?
