Windows Server Forum / Exchange Server / Design / August 2006Exchange 2003 in a DMZ
We have a single Exchange 2003 server hosting a small environment (100 mailboxes). We would like to install OWA on this server and also move it to our DMZ without configuring front-end and back-end servers. Not sure if this configuration would work. Any help would be greatly appricated. Thank you, Julie > We have a single Exchange 2003 server hosting a small environment (100 > mailboxes).

You would have to open so many ports between the DMZ and your LAN for all the AD and DNS stuff that it would make it less secure. What are you currently using as your firewall? Thank you. We currently have a pix firewall.  SignatureThank you, Julie > > We have a single Exchange 2003 server hosting a small environment (100 > > mailboxes).

Putting OWA in DMZ is does not really provide any additional security, it's more a misconception these days. Is there a particular reason why you want to put your OWA in the DMZ?

A lot cleaner, and more secure. More info here: http://www.microsoft.com/isaserver/solutions/exchange.mspx Bryan |
