Virtual Server 2005 configuration with RRAS

Greetings,

This is also posted at experts-exchange, but it has not been answered
yet and really need help with this. I've also been ask WWBG (what
would Bill Grant do?) and still can not come up with a solution.

Here is my setup:

(1) Hardware Firewall (SonicWall)

(1) Host server running Windows 2003 Standard R2 x64 with 8GB of Ram,
1TB of disk space, and 2 NICS (one not in use). This server is in a
workgroup.

(2)Guest Virtual Servers running W2K3R2 x86. One of the Guest servers
is in a workgroup and is running RRAS. It has two virtual NICS. One
is connected to the "internet" (which is really just a NATed ip
behind the firewall). The other virtual NIC is the "LAN" side of the
RRAS. The additional guest server is running as a Domain Controller
with Exchange and only has one NIC.

The problem is that from the Host Server (10.10.10.100) I can not ping
the RRAS virtual server at 10.10.10.102 nor can the inside "LAN" nic
behind the RRAS at 10.10.11.2 (10.10.11.1 being being the lanside of
the RRAS). However, I can ping out from the DC at 10.10.11.2, browse
the net, etc. I can also do the same from RRAS server. Furthemore, I
need to configure a port forward (one-to-one) nat on my firewall to
pass a public IP to the DC sitting behind the RRAS and I cannot get
that to work properly. I am very comfortable with port forwarding and
one-to-one nats on a hardware firewall. I have even opended up the
correct port in RRAS under "Services and Ports" and told it to pass
the traffic (RDP) to the TS, but I have had no luck. Any ideas?

Here is what it looks like:

Intenet Firewall Outside 67.75.x.x
|
|
Internet Firewall Inside 10.10.10.1
|
|
Virtual Server Host (W2K3R2x64 in a workgroup, no AD) only one NIC
plugged in at 10.10.10.2
|
|
Virtual Server Guest (W2K3R2x86 RRAS in workgroup, no AD) virtual NIC
"internet" 10.10.10.3

| virtual NIC
"Lan" 10.100.100.1 (other nics to be added later)
|
|
|
Virtual Server Guest (W2K3R2x86 AD, DNS, Exchange03) virtual NIC
10.10.10.4

TIA,
JH

The ping failures are probably not important. ICMP echo is probably
blocked on the RRAS server.

The basic problem is that your private LAN machines are two hops from
the Internet. They are not in the same IP subnet or the same segment as the
firewall's private NIC. They are behind another router. I doubt that you
will be able to get port forwarding to work in that setup.

Have you tried static mapping the public IP to the RRAS router's
10.10.10 address (from the Sonicwall settings) then port forwarding on the
RRAS server? I have never tried it but it might work.
