Web apps, reverse proxy, FileMaker Server and Kerio Connect

Before the days of Server.app it was fairly easy to run FileMaker Server and Kerio Connect in tandem on a Mac OS X Server.

It is clearly no longer "best practices" to do so but there are times when it is handy.

I have created a tutorial on how to use OS X Server.app's Web Services Advanced "Web App" feature to apply reverse proxy rules so that you can install and use FileMaker Server 13.05, Kerio Connect 8.4, and Rumpus 8 all on a Yosemite or Mavericks server while still allowing Server.app to provide normal Web, Wiki, and Profile Management services.

The tutorial is available in the Tutorials section of the RAIS page at: http://rais.precursor.ca

Needless to say, "use at your own risk".

Comments are welcome.

Hi Alex, your solution has been working well, until I had to renew my certificates through the server app, after that within a few days all the web services reverted to showing the default server webpage. After a bit of fiddling I tried unlocking all of the site files and adding the new certificates, they instantly started working again, what did surprise me though is that the non SSL sites also failed but then started working as soon as they were unlocked, not sure how that would happen but just thought I'd put it out there in case anyone else has the same issue
