    Question WHS2011 Remote Access now MS have killed homeserver.com

    I just got Windows Home Server 2011 and (annoyingly) discovered I can no longer configure remote access because MS have pulled the live domains and homeserver.com.

    I tried my own domain, no dice.

    Any ideas or alternatives to give me access to files, etc as RA does?

    Legitimate! And I haven't got £350+ for 2012r2
    IT people slash forward.

    Also, lack of planning on your part does not constitute an emergency on my part....

    Can't you set up VPN if you only need file access and not remote control? Use that along with a free dynamic DNS account from no-IP.com
