Its not a problem at all. That is by design. Would you really want just
anyone to be able to connect to your servers from the internet.
If this is what you want to do, invest in a VPN.

Subject: server access


newbie question...
we have a user that wants to install outlook 2000 on their home machine &
access our exchange server using his road runner connection instead of the
dial-up into the network.  It fails, can't find the server.  He can telnet
to port 25, however.  So, it appears you have to be connected to the LAN to
be able to find the server through outlook.  OWA works fine. is this normal?
necessary operation of exchange server? network configuration? his machine?
All I have access to is my exchange server, so, I just need some direction
on where the problem might be, if it even is a problem...my exchange server,
the network, or the guy's computer.

Thanks.
