Gateway URL for internal published remote app

i trying determine how configure rds deployment.  have reverse proxy using expose rds website via port 443.  have both the rds session host , ts web access roles on same server , on seperate server have rds gateway.  rds gateway supposed conduit rpc on http don't know if have configured properly.  don't think have.

 

 

rdshost => session , web access roles

rdsgateway => gateway role

 

internet ----> reverse proxy ----> firewall ----> rdsgateway ----> rdshost

 

if want gain access remote app published on rdshost, enter rdshost url , rerouted through rdsgateway , required enter credentials , once authenticated presented remote app. 

 

this works internally how supposed publish externally?  need url refers rdsgateway server not rdshost server.

any thoughts on this, have gone on numerous wbsites , can't find on how expose name external consumption.

hi pbbergs,

 

thank posting.

 

actually, rs gateway can external users access remoteapp programs without connecting vpn.

 

if use rds gateway in conjunction rd web access , remoteapps, need configure ts gateway settings in ts remoteapp manager.  when using ts gateway, gateway's name needs resolvable *client* whereas terminal server name needs resolvable *gateway* machine.  because of fact client makes connection ts gateway (via port 443) , ts gateway makes connection ts (via port 3389).

 

here excerpts gateway settings!

 

to configure rd gateway settings

1.       on rd session host server, open remoteapp manager. open remoteapp manager, click start, point administrative tools, point remote desktop services, , click remoteapp manager.

2.       in actions pane of remoteapp manager, click rd gateway settings. (or, in overview pane, next rd gateway settings, click change.)

3.       on rd gateway tab, configure desired rd gateway behavior. can configure whether automatically detect rd gateway server settings, use rd gateway server settings specify, or not use rd gateway server.

if select automatically detect rd gateway server settings, client tries use group policy settings determine behavior of client connections rd gateway.

if select use these rd gateway server settings, following:

1.       configure rd gateway server name , logon method.

important

the server name must match specified in secure sockets layer (ssl) certificate rd gateway server.

2.       if want connection try use same user credentials access both rd gateway server , rd session host server, select use same user credentials rd gateway , rd session host server check box. however, users may still receive 2 prompts credentials if conflicting credentials exist source such group policy settings, , credentials not work. may receive 2 prompts credentials if default credentials used connection , credentials not work.

3.       if want client computer automatically detect when rd gateway required, select bypass rd gateway server local addresses check box. (selecting option optimizes client performance.)

use rd gateway server client connections, clear bypass rd gateway server local addresses check box.

4.       when finished, click ok.
