Hi,

When users receive subscription notifications via e-mail, the link points to the internal url. i.e.
How can I change it, so that the notification points to the FQDN: i.e.
The alternative would be to let all workstations bypass proxy for the local adwdress, but this does not seem to be working.

Thanx,

Jules
 
Im more familiar with how SharePoint v2 handles this, but I believe that if you set up a host header name in IIS to reflect your public domain name (e.g. server.domain.com), that should it should correct this for you. Although, if you have people accessing it from a local network, you will have to add a local host header entry as well, or the site will only be availible with the public address. Anyways, I have done mine this way and it has solved the same problem. Although, I am running SharePoint v2, and I do not have anyone connecting locally. So it may be trial and error on whether it works the same way with version 1. Hope some of that helps!

Hi,

It is purely for the internal staff. In order to simplify the procedure, we have all workstations on the LAN pointing to the FQDN. (otherwise, when they upload docs to the library, the link that is created references the internal path....resulting in users on the outside of the LAN not being able to browse those documents.)

But, there must surely be a way in which you can configure the subscriptions to add the FQDN link....instead of the internal one.

Alternativly, I will look into the host header config.

Thanx,

Jules
