That's exactly the point, George - in over 6 years of online service,
neither it nor a host it protected has ever been 0wn3d once. 

Not

Once

 

"Someone will hack *everything* someday"; this is about as much a
non-statement as could possibly be.

You don't write compu-articles for a living, do you? :-p

 

If you have concrete evidence to show that a properly configured ISA is
in any way vulnerable, I'm all ears (looks funny; but what the hey).

I know it's ICSA certified, but remember, it's still a Microsoft server,
the target of 90% of the world's hackers.  :-)  Someone will hack it
some day.  Actually I've never touched it, the
firewall/vpn/router/network whatever decisions here are handled by
another group and I have to admit, they have our network purring.

        Steve,

         

        There are some good whitepapers here:

sp

         

        We use Sonicwalls at many of our Home Transcriptionist and Dr.s
offices.  They work fairly well and are a piece of cake to setup.  We
also use a Cisco VPN concentrator as well as a Neoteris CVPN box at this
end, but unless your looking at several hundred site-to-site VPNs that
would be way overkill.  Check to see if your current router is VPN
capable, if so put a small sonicwall at the other end, follow thier doco
and you should be set.

        I setup an Exchange Server by using a book. So pretty much
everything I know is self-taught so excuse me if this is a bit out
there.

         

        I know that to get Exchange to work outside of the network you
need to VPN in. Does anyone have a good information tool for how to
setup a simple VPN to work with Exchange? I know I could google it but I
get back too many varied links that I don't know which one is the right
option.

         

        Hopefully thanks for the help!
