Hi Joseph,

So, if the Web server on the DMZ is compromised (its supposed to be,
it's a bastion host!), then they could access the staging server. If
they compromise the staging server, then they have direct access to the
internal network. Right?

Thanks!

Tom

Hi Tom,

EXTERNAL ISA 2 NIC cards

WEB Server 1 NIC card (would like 2)

INTERNAL ISA 2 NIC cards

STAGING Server will have 2 NIC cards with only one going to the
Web Server located in the DMZ.

Does this extra info help?

Thank you,

Joseph

Hi Joseph,

I looked at the graphic you sent about your dual homed staging Web
server. Its looks like its got an interface on the DMZ and another
interface on the internal network. Is that right? Or, do you have two
interfaces on the "internal" ISA Server, both of them on the DMZ
network? 

If it's the former, I think that's not a top security config, because
even if IP routing isn't enabled on the staging server, someone with
control of the staging server will still have direct access to your
internal network.

HTH,
Tom
