Good day,
I'm setting up an Intranet w/IIS 7.5 and Joomla. We have IIS on one server ('IISServer' and our internal files that are updated by the employees on another server ('FileServer').IISServer can access FileServer though a mapped drive.
- I want to be able to serve up the files from FileServer on the Joomla webpage through links.
- When I test out using file:/// or file://///, nothing happens when I use the link.
- When I go to set up a virtual directory to the FileServer mapped drive, it can't find it when I test the connection.
So after doing some research, I'm a bit lost. Ideally, should I be looking to:
1. Set up the Virtual Directory, I'm just doing something wrong / missing some step.
2. Set up WebDAV.
3. Set up a reverse proxy w/URL rename.
4. Some combination of the above.
5. None of the above.
If I can figure out what I should be aiming to implement, I think I can get things to work. Thank you in advance.
