I have 2 web servers, one is publicly accessable on the internet and one
that isn't, how do I route requests from the public web server to the none
public web server.....

IIS doesn't do this. You need a reverse proxy server (like ISA Server)

Hello,

(Unforuntaly) IIS cannot act as a reverse proxy, which is what you are
asking for.

You can install a reverse proxy, for example
http://www.octagate.com/HTTPRedirect.asp . Apache can also act as a reverse
proxy. You can also search on the Internet for other third-party software.

An Isapi Filter could also do the work.

Dear Ken Schaefer, I am trying to learn how to send emails under program
control with the Microsoft Internet Transfer Control. It requires a proxy
server and I am under the impression that Internet Information Server can do
this, but I don't find how to do this in the help files or the book entitled
"II6 Administration". I found in the book that I can simply copy email
messages created in notepad into the WWWroot "pickup" directory and they get
grabbed up and sent. So, is there any advantage in trying to use ITC and a
proxy server? Thanks for your response.
