Access Windows SBS Console from a remote computer

When you are working from a remote computer, you can access Windows SBS Console by using Remote Web Workplace. However, to access the Remote Web Workplace Web site, it is recommended that you first install a security certificate.

When the security certificate is installed on remote computers and devices that connect to the network, the certificate establishes a secure and "trusted" connection with the server. The security certificate helps secure your Remote Web Workplace, Outlook® Web Access, and Outlook Mobile Web sites. It also helps secure the Outlook Anywhere feature.

If the security certificate is not installed on a remote computer that is used to access Remote Web Workplace, users receive a "Certificate Invalid" error message. To resolve this error, install the certificate on the remote computer.

Installing the security certificate on home and mobile computers

To configure remote computers to trust the Windows SBS 2008 server, remote users need to install the security certificate on their home or mobile computers.

Note

You should only download the certificate installer package from a computer that is directly connected to your organization's network. Do not download this package over the Internet.

  1. Copy the file Install Certificate Package.zip to portable storage media, such as a floppy disk or a USB drive.

  2. Insert the floppy disk or USB drive into the computer that is not joined to the Windows SBS 2008 domain and from which you want to access Remote Web Workplace.

  3. In Windows® Explorer, navigate to the location where you copied Install Certificate Package.zip.

  4. Right-click Install Certificate Package.zip, and then click Extract All.

  5. In the Extract Compressed (Zipped) Folders dialog box, type the folder location where you want to extract the files, and then click Extract.

  6. Open the folder where the extracted files are located, and then double-click Install Certificate.
