" RD Gateway is incredibly easy to implement, no need for VPN's, no need for special client software."
Other than requiring IE and a Windows OS.

Install a cert and configure who you want to have access through it to what. Test it out. I'd do this before paying for Citrix licensing. RD Gateway is incredibly easy to implement, no need for VPN's, no need for special client software. Most Developers I know like to have all of their tools available. Giving them simple direct access straight to their desktop is optimal imo.

Setup a vpn that only allows port 3389 (RDP) and then they can MSTSC/RDP to their desktops without allowing other risky traffic from personal equipment over the VPN Erik Goldoff IT Consultant Systems, Networks, & Security ' Security is an ongoing process, not a one time event !

I have a requirement to allow a lot these users work from home. Currently we have setup a Dial up VPN to our firewall which works fine. However a % of these users do not have laptops and we are reluctant for people to connect in over their home PC's What do other people do to allow remote\home users work from home? What are my options? Regards Fergal O'Connell ICT Support The information in this email is confidential and may be legally privileged. It is intended solely for the addressee.
