    IIS 6.0 Compression working in LAN , but not on Remote Access

    Hi All, 

                                      I am facing a problem with IIS 6.0 Compression that its not working on remote access.

                                       I have enabled the IIS 6.0 compression and also changed the metabase xml file to enabl ethe static as well as dynamic compression, also added the extensions correctly for which compression is required . Finally when  did a testing Locally as well as on LAN from a different computer , with a sniffing tool we could see that compression is working and Performance is good.

                                       But the problem is as soon as the pages are accessed remotely compression doesn't happen, i.e. when we checked with a sniffer tool we could see that the pages are no more compressed.

    Server : Window 2003

    IIS version is 6.0

    Really breaking my head to figure out the problem.

    Please do help me if any one has faced these kind of situation

     Thanks

     Nitha

    It should not be an issue with IIS as IIS does not care whether a client is "local" or "remote".  Is there some other network device getting in the way?
