Where can I find out more about CE via the internet

[eo]

At the moment publishing reports to CE only to be used internally, but getting more and more requests to expand this externally. Looked in the CE Admin's guide, but not much in there, any idea where I can get more info?

Hi,
The ability to run CE for external access ( I assume you mean on a firewalled extranet( internet) as opposed to your own intranet) depends on several factors related to the firewall's configuration, the data sources used for your reports and the level of security you require..

The site provided in the previous post is a good starting point - also search the support knowledgebase at that site (use advanced search with 'Firewall' and specify CE).
Here is a link to one such article..it specifies v8.5 but the concepts should still apply.

Good luck,
