Thank you for your input!!!
I like the idea of using CSG because I don't have to open up port 1494
to the outside world.
1) Our system is low budget and I just can't afford another server to
run STA on. Do you think I could run it on the Web Interface/CSG server
or on my Metaframe datastore server?
2) If I can't do option 1 then I think I should just run Web Interface
and skip the CSG/STA option. If I do this how can I force "128Bit Only"
for external users?
Thanks again for all your help....I am reading the latest Administrator
guides now.

You can have your Secure Gateway and Nfuse / Web Interface on the one
server. Install your SSL cert on this server and put it in your DMZ,
only allow access to port 443 on the CSG.
The only issue here is that you have an additional server which acts as
a Secure Ticket Authority to support the CSG - the STA should sit
outside the DMZ beside the farm. You have the option of letting the CSG
talk to the STA on port 80, or you can install a SSL cert on the STA as
well.
You can publish you application with standard security settings, as the
CSG will encrypt all the traffic using 128 bit SSL. The users never need
to connect directly to the farm servers.
Cheers,
Scott

Subject: [THIN] Web Interface 2.0
I am slightly out of touch with Citrix XP Web Interface (I have used
NFuse not Web Interface). My goal is to have a company portal all users
can hit both internal and external to access Citrix applications.
Solution:
1) Single web server running Windows 2003, IIS6 and Citrix Web
Interface.
2) Purchase SSL cert to secure all web traffic to and from Citrix Web
Interface.
3) Open 1494 ports into to each Citrix server from the internet.
4) Configure Web Interface for "128Bit only" for ICA traffic
Questions:
1) Do I need secure gateway? What is secure gateway all about?
2) Can I configure Citrix Web Interface to force "128bit only" for
external users and only use "128bit logon only" for internal users? I
don't want to publish applications twice.
I was planning to read up on this but now I have been told this needs to
be done right now...(my manager never sticks to the schedule).
Thanks for any help!!!
