We tried ISA and VPN client with no success. We ended up purchasing a Cisco 560e PIX with VPN and it is working fantastic. I feel a hardware solution is much better than a software one. -----Original Message----- From: Mike Liddekee [mailto:mliddekee@xxxxxxxxx] Sent: Friday, September 05, 2003 8:57 AM To: [ExchangeList] Subject: [exchangelist] RE: External clients & firewall not in a domain http://www.MSExchange.org/ I'm not real familiar w/ the ISA server but I'm assuming it allows some type of VPN connectivity. I believe I remember reading something recently about ISA having some "secure" publishing feature for outlook. That would be a question for the ISA folks.

However opening those ports blindly to the internet == BAD. Repeat after me... "I will not open up my network to hackers" Since you're using Exch2K, You would have really two options: 1) VPN and 2) OWA. Of course I guess you could do dial-up RAS but does anybody actually still use that stuff? :-) We use a combination of VPN & OWA here at our facility and have a number of users who travel frequently with laptops. Do you have any type of firewall in place besides the ISA server?
