Have you looked into MS IIS? It sounds like you're a MS shop and if that's the case IIS would be a great fit. "Steven W. Engle" <sengleat_private> on 10/02/99 02:34:36 PM Please respond to "Steven W. Engle" <sengleat_private> To: firewall-wizardsat_private cc: sengleat_private(bcc: Myles Keough/MA/CST) Subject: Looking for a PVN-only server to put behind the firewll Looking for recommendations for a private virtual network "server" (95/98/NT software or "network appliance") to place on the internal network side of a firewall. Objective is to have external/Internet users, via software on their Win 95/98/NT laptop / PC and their standard connection to the Internet, to be able to mount shares being made available by the corporate NT server on the internal network. The firewall would allow external connections to tunnel through it to the internal VPN server. The VPN server would handle authentication, data encryption / decryption, addressing / routing, etc. The way I see it, the remote user's PC/Laptop would appear as a node on the internal network and would have access to all devices on the internal network. So far all the solutions I have found are associated with full blow firewalls - this is not an option due to cost and skill constraints on part of the end user organization. All that is needed is a PVN-only solution with maintenance limited to add/deleting users and delivering software to remote end users. BTW: The "firewall" is a NetGear RH348 ISDN Router with Dynamic NAT turned on. It supports tunneling one external IP address (the router's) to an internal network IP address. Thanx! -- Steven W.
