Document Library through PWA external Access help!!

C

Chris Moran

Even though the external address is specified correctly here is my scenario:

The document library wont open coming from the outside..... I can access the
site using the external address with the site information on the end of it,
but it wont load through PWA like it should, it keeps trying to recieve the
page from the http://servername/sites...etc. HELP

1 - I log into PWA from my hotel room ex: http://www.xyx.org/projectserver
using Project Server authentication
2 - I go to the document library and try to access the library..... (windows
authen, but I never get that far.
3- I click on the folder and I can see at the bottom that it is trying to
grab the library from the internal address. ex: http://serverx/sites....etc
4 - the library never loads and I get an error on the page but the PWA
toolbar is still at the top.

I have the external address specified in the server configuration....

The work around that I have is to make an lmhost file with the internal
server name pointing to the external ip address, then this process works
fine.....

Why is this necessary? What am I doing wrong? How do I fix it?

thanks!
