Hello people,

Here is my situation. I am sure this is a pretty stupid question, but I
simply don't know the answer:

I've got an IIS server that is available directly from the internet and
which hosts several "normal" sites and a couple of SharePoint Sites, which
are all reached using host header names. Works perfect.

Now, to get the pressure a little bit of this machine, we would like to set
up another server with IIS and host some the SharePoint sites on that
machines. This second machine is not directly accessible via the internet.

I can easily have the first server point towards the second server, but I
cannot use the "a share located on another computer" option in the home
directory tab of the server setup, since these SharePoint sites are WSS
sites, which now work using databases.

If I use the "a redirection to a URL" option, I can point to that second
server, but that would be the internal address of that machine, not
recognized from outside the company, so that won't work either.

Any suggestions on how I could solve this ?

Regards,

Benoit.

You could try Port Tunneling, that should work for you, there are several
programs on the net for doing exactly this.

Here are a couple of links... I've not used either of these programs, but it
was a quick search online that brought me these links.
