I think an ISA or ISA like server/appliance in the DMZ is still your easiest and best solution to your immediate issue. VPN or SSL VPN is good but I would look at that as an addition to rather than a replacement for a simple ISA published OWA. A simple web address for a quick check of email while at a hotel can't be beat for user friendly.
And certainly not an OWA server in the DMZ. > -----Original Message----- > From: N Parr [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Friday, January 25, 2008 12:25 PM > To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues > Subject: Exchange OWA Front End Options > > I need some recommendations for front end security to OWA.
