MapGuide Webserver Separate from Site Server

[Anonymous]

Our Mapguide sites back to 6.5 have always had one physical server with Web Services and Site server with Repositories on the same physical server. Now with 2011 we would like to separate out the Web services on one bos within the company DMZ and the site repository server outside the DMZ on the company WAM.  Can this be done and what has to be changed in webconfig.ini and serverconfig.ini to pull it off.

Setting up a web extensions separate from server is exactly how the Load Balancing works, except with a single server.

You just need to expose the ports through the firewall - the defaults are (2810,2811,2812):

[AdministrativeConnectionProperties]

Port = 2810

[ClientConnectionProperties]

Port = 2811

[SiteConnectionProperties]

IpAddress = "put in the IP address of the actual MapGuide Server here"

Port = 2812
