Mark,
Following suggestions from the group I am
trying to
get to grips with SME server, this has the ability to act as a
firewall/gateway
webserver and also network server, which is how intend using
it.
From what you and others have stated in this
thread
this seems a very bad idea :-(
Can anyone on the list tell me if it is
possible
(and how i do it!!) to have my MP3 collection and my photo album in an IBay
on
the SME server and have them accessible from my website (using
Andromeda) as well as to my internal network as files (for audiotron
winamp
etc) without compromising the firewall??
Many thanks
Paul

Well, even Tony seems to accept that I know what
I'm
talking about
when it comes to Internet security :-)
Lee - I
completely agree with you that IPCop is a very appropriate
security
system
for protecting a domestic network. The base data used
to calculate the
complex bits of my tax returns is on my , and I'm
far more concerned
about
THAT being compromised than
Lee - I further agree with you that
running additional services on it
does indeed compromise the security
provided by exposing the kinds of
faults you describe.
Tony - I
agree with you that a Via is an expensive overkill for a
domestic
firewall. However, I don't think that the right answer is to
install
other
services on it. I'm sorry, but I have to say that doing
so creates
security holes.
Regards,
Mark
