Hi everyone,
I have recently taken over a site running SBS 2000 but
with no ISA installed. Their current network config is
Netgear ADSL modem/firewall/router -> switch-> server +
clients.
They currently have direct access from home to their work
desktops using remote desktop. This enables them to work
from home as though sitting at work or download work
files to home for offline use. They can also view mail by
loading outlook whilst looged on.
Several laptop users have a b/band dialup to a shared
workstation where all laptop users have accounts. They
can open Outlook and gain access to all files they
usually have access to.
As they have several staff who operate overseas hey now
really have a need for remote OWA via a web access.
I would be very grateful for any advice on to how to
achieve these requirements and whether installing ISA,
with the necessary reconfiguring to the 2 nic scenario,
would be an improvement in terms of firewall security to
their network.
Many thanks,
Jed

I would also add that all files are stored on a win 2000
member server so all users will need access to all the
mapped drives.
