Same sites going to pretty much kill anything easy. You'll have to statically map the Exchange services ports, for which the FAQ has a link to a technet article. That article doesn't, however, tell you how to statically map the MTA, which was covered on the list a few months ago (August, probably).
>From there, you still need standard RPC traffic ports (135, 137-139). That should be it. So, you're talking at least 7 ports. Alternately, have you considered using RRAS on both boxes and running a VPN tunnel between the two of them? That would only require a port or two, and would be a bit more secure. Its also possible to run that VPN without encryption (so tunnel only) which would still allow you to see packet contents. Roger ------------------------------------------------------ Roger D.
