bad idea to put your mail server on the internal network...

best to get a linux machine, config it with send mail and stick it on the
dmz

the config your fire rules something like this

internet ---> dmz mail server  allow
dmz mail server ---> Internal Mail server  allow
internal mail server ---> dmz mail server allow
dmz mail server --> internet smart host mail server allow

as you can see, much more secure... ;-)...

remember , security is more politics and opinion than hard and fast fact's

Cheers,
Lee

Subject: [FW1] How to setup a dual FW1 DMZ?



I have seen a lot of examples of how to setup a DMZ by using three
interfaces, one for each part of the network.  Does anyone have any examples
on how to setup a two firewall network that contains a DMZ? See my example
below.


INTERNET ---- FW#1 ---- DMZ ---- FW#2 ---- NETWORK

I am mostly concerned with the fact that the company want to put our mail
server on the internal network.  I just want to make sure that I can have
e-mails get all the way in any out from the internet.  I also want to use
NAT at both firewalls if possible.
