VMware VDM with a security server. It's easy if you know how :-)

I tried to install VDM with the security server in the DMZ but ran in some connectivity issue's.  Seems after a 1 day testing I found the clue.  First our setup :

VDM Connection Server : 192.168.0.10 (LAN)

Test Desktop : 192.168.0.20 (LAN)

VDM Security Server : 192.168.1.2 (DMZ)

External IP : x.y.z.c (WAN-IP or FQDN)

 

First item to check on the external URL setting in the VDM Connection server put in : https://192.168.0.10:443

On the VDM Security Server, go to "c:\Program Files\Vmware\Vmware VDM\Server\sslgateway\conf".

 

Create a file named "locked.properties" open it with notepad and put in the next text :

clientHost=x.y.z.c
clientPort=443
clientProtocol=https

 

Save and close it, restart the VDM Security Service and the VDM Connection Services and you are good to go.

Off course you are also able to put a FQDN instead of the x.y.z.c

Hèhè
