Hi John,
 
Isn't a user name of "Adminstrator" and a password of "password" strong
enough? ;-)

        1.      If they do not need the domain name, something is wrong.

        2.      Strong password policy. 
        3.      Use certificates.

        Hello,

         

        I just set up my ISA Server for inbound VPN calls, as per
http://www.isaserver.org/tutorials/Configuring_ISA_Server_For_Inbound_VP
N_Calls.html. Everything works but my concern is security. All anyone
need do is guess an authentic domain username/password and they are
"in". Not even the domain name is necessary. Is there a way to secure
this authentication? Thanks.

         

        Mark
