Works well until one of the servers is hacked which then allows access to the private IP space.
Note: just highlighting this as a potential risk, from what you have said it looks like you covered this. --- Accomplishing the impossible means only the boss will add it to your regular duties.

The SQL server is on a 10. address behind a NAT for internet access. We also turn off all windows file sharing on the public network and use black ice to filter everything on the public interface that does not need to come to that server, as well as having a firewall in front of that server. This keeps all intra-server traffic off public ip space and give us a better idea of the internet traffic that is really going to that server, i.e. MRTG on the switch interface.

I will be moving sql behind a firewall, and just felt that the open web interface their on sql to the public, was somewhat a big security risk. (Open hole if you will) The sql machine was compromised by a hacker, that somehow managed to install optix on that machine, and god knows what else I haven't been able to find, so I decided to separate, conquer and divide. But I am open to suggestions, not to mention what goes where. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Cary Fitch Sent: Tuesday, August 17, 2004 5:19 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [Rodopi] Moving Rodopi help Ours is seperated, and we are planning to put them "back togather". The reason is we don't feel the Rodopi web interface and processing is really that much of a load on the server, and with them seperate, sometimes when a machine is rebooted, the web server looses SQL contact with the Database server, thus requiring that connection to be re-established. When they were on one machine all services restated on a reboot. But, your mileage may vary.
