Our Environment only have 275users internally, and another 50users access from overseas using OWA or POP3. Do you have any reason why should the gateway to be run on separate box?

I don't know how big your network is, but for 100 users, the gateway could be a simple PC. As for DNS, W2K/AD is all about DNS, DNS, DNS. Plan on having 2 DNS servers. For that matter, plan on having 2 DC/GC's. So make each of those a DNS server as well. -----Original Message----- From: Fioon [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, June 17, 2003 6:45 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: Scan Gateway We're in the exploring on the infrastructure on our Network to be ready for Win2k. There are some area which is in question marks. Email Scanning Gateway to be places on the DMZ. e.g. TrendMicro/Mailsweeper. Should it be place in different box or should it be place in the same box with the Front End Server? So far, we have been consult by 2 supplier. One said it's better to put different box, because put in one box with FE is useless. Reason is if email came into the FE, and only then the Scan Gateway scan the mail is too late. The virus already came into the FE, scan will not help. And another one supplier said it's ok to put into same box with FE. Another question is for Win2k Environment, is DNS very important? Once DNS down, and no cache available, does it mean clients cannot log on to the network?
