Hi everybody. would you please give me some hints for the followin situation? In a win-based network, a folder contains some documents that have to be made available to company employees when they are not in the HQ but they are in a local branch office this is currently implemented by a FTP server (win 2kserver); the ftproot is the root dir of the documents. the server is connected to internet: (internet)---(router)---(firewall)---(LAN)---(server) employees access from a remote location office using their win logon credentials (no anonym access is provided). The local branch office acceses internet with a dinamic IP provided by ISP. What security concerns are rised in this setting? Should I use a DMZ, using the server to provide FTP services and moving the ftproot folder to another server INSIDE the DMZ (linked to a shared folder)? How can I overcome the problem that FTP passwords are transmitted not enchrypted? Should a VPN between HQ provide the panacea for these problems? thanks in advance davide
