FQDN not Resolving
-
Hey, so pretty much I have a Windows Server 2012 R2 server running Remote App role and after a large amount of DNS/Port Forwarding the FQDN still doesn't work. I can access the server its self remotely through the public IP and port forwarding but the Remote Apps can't run as they can't access the FQDN for the server... any ideas?
-
If you ping the FQDN from out side, does it resolve to the expected IP?
-
Why do you feel that it is not resolving? Everything you showed to me before made it look like DNS was fine.
-
It's resolving here, but not to the address expected.
-
@Dashrender No it did not resolve to the correct IP...
-
Did you turn on the orange cloud perhaps?
-
@scottalanmiller Was I not supposed too?
-
@christophergault I also get error "ERR_NAME_NOT_RESOLVED"

That's fine, but it was grey when you showed me the screenshot.
If you make changes and don't mention it, we will get things wrong.
Once it goes orange, you can't look up the IPs any more because they are proxying for you to improve your performance. But this is not a public webpage, it is an RDS server, so you can't have that on, it will freak out.
-
The IP addresses being displayed are the CloudFlare content management network nodes, not your server. Turn off the orange cloud to go back to your own server.
-
@scottalanmiller It resolves to the correct address when its grey, but I get the name not resolved error
-
It's working fine from Greece. I am getting your web server.
-
@scottalanmiller I figured it out... I had accidentally changed my host file in System32... I fixed it
-
@scottalanmiller However I still get an error from the RDWeb app saying it can't connect to the server...
-
Is RDS exposed?
-
@scottalanmiller I don't know
-
What steps did you go through to expose it? Right now IIS is generically showing up.
-
tacking /rdweb on the end of that URL results in the proper page, with an SSL error.
-
@scottalanmiller I don't think I ever did expose it...
-
@JaredBusch I can access that but its the app when I open it rdp file it says cant access server
