Web Server Publishing Rule and IP Address Logging

Dear All,

We have a member server published to the internet via ISA with a
webserver publishing rule. The problem or really an annoyance is that
in the member servers logs all incomming IPs are those of the main SBS
server and not the actual external IP accessing the site.

We'd like to be able to see who is looking / using the site without
having to cross reference the webserver log files with the proxy log
file (I assume thats what I would have to do) and / or use a log
anayliser.

Is this an inevitability, or can I reconfigure ISA to acheive what I
want?

I run SBS here with a non-nat router config with mail services on one
external IP and and the web listeners on another IP.

TIA

John

Hi John -

Open your Web Publishing Rule, and on the Action tab make sure that you have
a check next to "Send the original host header to the publishing server . .
. "
