I am attempting to publish our internal remote desktop login page (server.company.org/rdweb) for external use via UAG 2010.  I have configured my https trunk with the necessary IP address, portal and application properties.  Upon testing the portal/access from an external client machine I see the following errors in the security log:

 Warning 12/09/2013 12:08:47 31 Global Out-Of-The-Box Rules Security webconnect HNCUAG The request from source IP address 204.27.178.249, user to trunk webconnect; Secure=0 failed due to an error with a predefined global rule. The error code is Illegal character - (*).

I have tried to address the illegal character error by adding the * for legal characters (removing * for illegal) into:

trunk configuration -> URL inspection -> Global URL Character Rules (for each type)

Not having any luck.  This installation of UAG 2010 does not have sp1 installed.  Applying the service pack could have an effect.

Thoughts?

Update:  when i login to the portal and hover over the application name: Remote Desktop, I see http://server.company.org/rdweb/*/

The server login page is normally reached at:  https://server.company.org/rdweb

I have configured the address as:  server.company.org and path as /

are the application address and path not being updated?

Update:  I was able to get the application address changed to http://server.company.org/RDWeb

The web monitor security logs show:

A request from source IP address x.x.x.x, user mikesmith on trunk webconnect; Secure=1 for server N/A failed because the requested URL (/RDWeb) contains an invalid signature and cannot be resolved

Application Properties (RDWeb)

addresses: server.company.org

paths: /

paths: /RDWeb/*

Application URL:  http://server.company.org/RDWeb

Seems I'm stuck on this message:

A request from source IP address x.x.x.x, user johnny on trunk webconnect; Secure=1 for server N/A failed because the requested URL (/RDWeb) contains an invalid signature and cannot be resolved.
