I am totally new to share-point and am still studying this. I just deployed my own sharepoint and here is what i am facing now.
I have created a web application and site collection with the path of intranet.mydomain.com. with port number 4343 I have chosen that port cuz i already have my exchange infrastructure that the outlook web app is using port 443 already and my router is forwarding port443 to excahnge server for owa access from internet. My internal domain is .local
I have created site collections under the path intranet.mydomain.com which is my web application and then intranet.mydomain.com/main is explicit site collection. everything is setup but now that I am trying to access the link intranet.mydomain.com or intranet.mydomain.local it says page cant be displayed.
for ourside access I have created a A record in my external DNS for intranet which makes intranet.mydomain.com point to my router public IP and forwarded port 4343 (which is the port I selceted while created the web application in sharepoint) to sharepoint server IP. now if i access intranet.mydomain.com from outside it opens up my outlook web app which means it is beign forwarded by my router to exchange server.
What i have done wrong in here? is there an miss config cuz my internal domain is .local and i have configured web application and site collections wrong? or what is happening? in IIS i checked and site binding is fine too just according to what is configured by sharepoint.
thanks in advance for the help and detailed guidance
