Hello,

I am searching for some ideas and was hoping someone may have a
good/reasonable solution to this problem.

I need to allow file transfer between 2 NT servers.  The connection
requires the FTP to pass through a firewall and both servers are on
separate segments protected by the firewall (neither are on an Internet DMZ
segment).  At a minimum, I would like the passwords sent to be encrypted
but have not be able to locate any NT FTP servers that do this.  I am
considering setting up an IPSec or PPTP tunnel between the servers, but
would like the access to be restricted to only pass FTP traffic over this
tunnel.  If the tunnel is end to end, I have to pass the protocol (50,51
for IPSec or whatever the PPTP protocol is) at the firewall level and can
not do any restrictions at that point.  I would prefer to use IPSec, but
would need a client that also had a filtering option for the tunnel
endpoints on the NT servers...

We have thought of a few other options, but they are not very neat
solutions.

It looks like SSH servers for NT are in development, but not an option at
this point in time (that I am aware of).

Any suggestions are welcome.

Thank you,
Kathleen
