Cool, thanks, that clears that up :-) Now a follow-up, or rather, clarification on the scenario I mentioned before. Jim Davis' mail about the zones (DMZ, Bastion, and Stockade) accurately describes setup we have here.
But my question (which upon re-reading was not clear) is whether three different web servers serving different types of pages (essentially a multihome situation) can operate using one application server (or group of application servers clustered) so: webServer A serves www content in Internet DMZ webServer B serves iww (company intranet) content in c-iww DMZ webServer C serves iww (unit intranet) content in u-iww DMZ. can all WebServers connect to AppServer D in Bastion? thanks will Sean A Corfield wrote: >On Tuesday, Jul 8, 2003, at 12:34 US/Pacific, William Bowen wrote: > > >>>I don't know about SQL Server but Oracle uses 1521. >>> >>> >>1433 for SQL Server, but I was actually referring to which port the Web >>Server to App Server connection through the firewall would be (I've >>already >>got the Web/App Server connected to the SQL Server through the >>firewall part >>working). >> >> > >Ah, OK.
