In order to do that, AT&T would have to enable "Split Tunneling" for
your inbound connection.
If you can get them to do that, let me know, because I want to sell all
of my AT&T stock, and leave them as a telephone provider, because they
don't have a clue about security...
You see, if they allow a split tunnel, anyone on your internal network
can route traffic through the connecting computer, which is what you
want.
BUT, this also includes worm traffic, virus traffic, hack traffic, etc.
And then accountability goes right out the window, never mind secure
control.
Sorry man... It looks like you are SOL.
The only workaround I can think of is to write your own app that gathers
info from the users, and dumps it to a Database. Then another app on
the Communications Server picks up that data and does the connecting...

Subject: [windows2000] Routing via a Windows PC
we currently interact with the Medicare DDE system for tracking payments
and billing issues with Medicare. It uses the AT&T passport application
which is a dial up terminal program.
We have been informed that support for this is being dropped and we now
have to go to an arrangement that is two steps.
the first step is to connect to the AT&T Global network and authenticate
into the private intranet they have setup. The second step is to run
the Passport IP based terminal program and authenticate into our
terminal session.
Rather than mess with this on all the machines that would need it and
all the extra modem lines, logins etc, it seems logical that I could
setup one computer the connect to that intranet and then route traffic
destined for that network through that machine. Is this possible to do
with a windows PC? It seems like it should be. I just have not been
able to figure it out.
has anyone done anything like this before?
Thanks!
Greg
