Hi Arron,
        Yup, Ipsec filtering would be the prefered way.

I have looked and looked for a "definitive" answer to this question and
can't seem to find one. I am wondering what the "best" choice is for
basic filtering on a webhosting box running Windows 2000 without ISA
Server.

My first inclination says RRAS packet filtering is the obvious choice
for creating a firewall on a W2K box, and I've done with with success on
a customer box that didn't want to purchase any other firewall software
or hardware. But then I started searching the Internet and reading...

...and most of the articles/tutorials/testimonials I find talk about
IPsec filtering to perform this function! So now I am trying to get
opinions on each method and see which one works best. Is it 6 of one and
1/2 dozen of another?

Thanks!
