Cisco PIX 506 or 501. Let the firewall run on another piece of hardware all together... These are roughly $300-600 on Ebay, if you know a Cisco reseller then you can buy a SMART NET agreement on it and voila you now have a support contract and warranty on apiece of used Cisco equipment.
The nice thing about the PIX is just like all its competitors it can do site to site VPN, and client to PIX VPN with proper configuration. Firewall software on a server is not a good idea unless you just have to. If that is the case then WinRoute Pro Win Proxy or Zone Alarm Pro are adequate choices. Trend Micro also has some good products. If you choose to do this then put it on a server or PPC that does nothing but firewall and maybe DHCP, WINS, etc. >>>-----Original Message----- >>>From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] >>>[mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] On Behalf Of Hawk >>>Sent: Monday, November 25, 2002 3:22 PM >>>To: Imail >>>Subject: [IMail Forum] Server firewall >>> >>> >>>Hi, >>> >>>Can some recommend a firewall for NT.
