No we do not have a multi-homed network...our external connection comes
through a firewall then the ISA server....the ISA is also used as a
proxy

are you using Network Address Translation at the Gateway? Is
your external IP the address of the last hop router/device
Try looking at Shields Up on www.grc.com
this will help you check for security weaknesses and give you
your IP, if this corresponds to your machine IP then its publicly
accessible.
Servers have static IP's. workstations have DHCP addresses.
a private range 192.168... may make it easier to guess important
machines on your network. i've been told to avoid this.

Hi,
Sorry if this is a little confusing, this is the first
time I am dealing with something like this and I am trying to word this
as best I as I can...
All of the computers (workstations and servers) on my
network are on a public ip address range. They are currently using the
scope of 208.196.79.1-208.196.79.250. It has been like this since before
I was here. Does anyone see a problem with this???
From various threads I have read I see that most
networks are configured on a private ip range ...192.168.1.
xxx...anyway...I wanted to know if this something that I should be
looking to change? Is this just common practice or is there a reason for
it?
I know that changing the ip's on my servers will be more
a pain then I need right now but as far as the workstations go..would I
just have to create a new scope and have the DHCP server give out those
addresses?
Thanks in advance for any help
Paul.
