Currently our users are accessing Lawson externally using Citrix but the web server group is looking into using a reverse proxy method as an alternative. The big problem is the web person doesn't know Lawson and I don't know Forefront, so I'm hoping someone who has set this up can get me started. The web group set up an external url that is trying to access Lawson using the following url -
https://testurl.company.com
. Since there is no http endpoint set up in ssoconfig, I of course get an error. Here is where I want to make sure I have my steps in order... I believe I would set up a https endpoint with the FQDN = testurl.company.com and the https port of 443. Next I would create an "external" endpoint group that contains that url. If this is correct, do I assign this to any services?

Basically that's correct, and yes you add it to the SSOP service
So again:
1) Add End Point
2) Create Group
3) Assign End Point to Group
4) Assign End Point to Service
Now a few VERY VERY VERY IMPORTANT notes:
A Group represents a set of web service names that will route to ONE server. Either the lowest numbered -OR- the first added end-point (depending on ESP level) will be the server that is routed TO.
This behaviour facilitates High Availability and Load Balancing.
This means: If you need additional endpoints in a group, make sure the first end point CREATED AND ADDED to that group, is the one that should be forwarded to.
ALL end points NOT in ANY GROUP, will be treated as if in the (root) group. This group's primary server is the initial installation hostname. THAT host will NOT have an end point. It is treated as if it is end point zero.

Normally one group should only contain one end point otherwise you will have problem. msjmg111 that is correct create an endpoint then add the endpoint to external endpoint group. Then assign to service SSOP. thanks

@Xoomer,
In almost every case, I agree with you. There are however a few cases where having sets of names redirect back to one name is EXTREMELY useful, such as a front-end redirector in an HACMP/ES implementation.

If anyone is still searching information on this topic, an excellent Infor article, KB 1202690, detailed the steps in setting up LSF endpoints. I attached the article in case you couldn't find it.
