    How to setup FAWEB7 so it can be accessed from home or outside the intranet

    We currently have FAWEB7 configured and installed on the intranet. It's installed on Win2003 server. Has anyone configured FAWEB to be accessed from home or outside the school's intranet. And if so, would you mind sharing the neccessary steps to make this happen?

    Thank you.

    Mike,

    I had to get this going recently so I set up one link on our website for outside the firewall and one for inside.  Have a look at our FAWeb login page.  Hold your mouse over the links to see the URL's.  I know there is a better way to do this but I don't have the smarts, money, or time to figure it out.  If you do, I will buy you lunch for showing me how.  http://www.landmarkchristianschool.org/facultyaccess.html  Note, we also hide these links on our website so that we don't have students sitting at home trying to hack into teachers gradebooks.

    You need your firewall and your service provider to publish the IP address and server name.  Ours is set up

    so that on campus, network authentification isn't required but off campus, it is.
