Windows SBS 2008 automatically configures Remote Web Workplace settings. If you are an advanced user, you can manually change some settings in the registry if necessary.

2. At the User Account Control prompt, click Continue.

3. In the left pane, double-click the name of the server to expand the tree.

4. Double-click Sites to expand it, and then double-click SBS Web Applications to expand it.
