Re: xAP bridging / routing



Thanks Kevin,

Unfortunately the dmz side is all Linux, so I guess I'd have to whip
something up.

Thinking about it some more this morning though, the networks are separated
by a server running ISA (dual nics).  So would I be able to run both the
xServer and xServer client on the same machine but bound to separate NIC's?

Here's some ASCII representing the pertinent parts of my network - not sure
how well it will come out:

INTERNET


SWITCH-----------LINUX BOXES


(nic 0 - 172.18.9.x)
SERVER RUNNING ISA
(nic 1 - 192.168.1.x)


SWITCH-----------WINDOWS BOXES


Actually, I guess all I really need to do is figure out a way of forwarding
all broadcast traffic between the inner and outer networks using ISA?
