I have a web server (one NIC only with two public IP's directly connected to the internet). The server is running win. server 2008 standard. I have installed RRAS server and configured static IP pool (192.168.33.0 - 192.168.33.10). The Dial
in (RAS) interface gets the IP 192.168.33.1...
I have also configured firewall (windows firewall and advanced security) to allow file and printing sharing (inbound). Also I have enabled MS SQL port, Remote desktop etc...
Everything works ok only file sharing is not working. I cannot open any shared folder (I'am using \\192.168.33.1\sharedfolder). Also the same problem exist directly on my server if I try to open shared folder. I get an error (the network path was not found).
I found out that for dial-in interface SMB ports aren't open (for all other IP's on LAN interface they are). I have tried opening those port's directly in firewall but without luck. The ports are closed. It looks like the system locks those ports by default....
I have simmilar configuration on another server running win 2003. All needed ports on LAN IP and dial-up interface IP are open, so I think the problem with win 2008 lies in blocking those ports...
Any ideas
