reinstall remote web workplace?
We just inherited a SBS2011 server, and we want to get RWW working. It looks like some of the SBS components have been either disabled or removed. For instance, the SBS Console throws an error when clicking on the Users & Groups tab - "The Windows Small Business Server 2011 Standard Console feature is not setup correctly." I made minimal progress on this by using AD Users & Computers to recreate the "Standard User", "Standard User with Administration...", and "Network Administrator" accounts that the console uses for the "User Roles" feature. But, I still get the error. Anyway, I'm getting slightly off-topic...
IIS is missing the "Remote" virtual directory. Thus RWW does not work at all - IE basically tells me that the "resource" does not exist - HTTP Error 404.0.
Is there any way to "reinstall" RWW without rebuilding the whole SBS server/structure?

Thank you Larry,
I did the "repair" on the SBS Console, but no luck there. I kinda hoping for a "run this wizard to reinstall RWW" solution, but perhaps that doesn't exist.

Have you run the SBS BPA? You can learn a lot from that.

This is no longer an issue.
Glad, I hope to hear that, but for the benefit of others who read this can you please share the solution?

That is, in fact, a solution. <g> Even MS reserves the "reinstall from backup" or "wipe and reload" as a "solution" to problems that are self inflicted or otherwise not "fixable".

No real viable "solution" found. Ended up by wiping hard drive and reinstalling OS. :(

My best recommendation is to spend a couple hours with this, then contact Microsoft or Third Tier for assistance.
