Setup a VPN with the PIX. There is no reason to waste all the money on one if you are just going to turn it into swiss cheese to access Exchange. Yes, RDP is necessary if you are trying to allow users to use Outlook at home, but since a large number of consumer ISP's block it since MSBlast, it's a waste of time.
As for other ports, SMPT: 25 OWA: 80 or 443 The rest should be firewalled. -----Original Message----- From: Justin Lape [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, September 18, 2003 7:51 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: Exchange 2000 Firewall Ports Windows 2000 Server Exchange 2000 Server I recently got a Cisco PIX and I need to know what ports are absolutely necessary to allow inbound traffic through the firewall for people to be able to send mail in, access OWA, etc. I am reading that port 135 needs to be allowed inbound but due to all the hype with RPC these days I was wondering if the port was necessary. Thanks in advance.
