Back in October I asked this question. Thanks to everyone who provided helpful information. We did get a solution using ssh. This messages is delayed because we wanted to test the solution. Although the port forawding on ssh works, MS evidently puts the hostname information somewhere and that makes things fail. We are using Notes which does not have this problem. /dan -- Dan Schlitt schlitt () world std com On Thu, 7 Oct 1999, Dan Schlitt wrote: How do folks work access to an MS Exchange server through a firewall? We are under pressure to install MS Exchange in our mixed unix/NT environment and allow access from outside our local network. I checked the archives and didn't find anything that helped me. Currently we limit outside access from the Internet to ssh to a unix host. Port forwarding makes it possible to do all of the things that have been required in the past. But now the folks on the sales side of the company want to have MS Exchange installed so they can use its calendaring and other functions. We have attempted to use the port forwarding to make exchange work and we have also tried Lotus Notes. No luck. Maybe we have missed something. This would be our preferred approach. So we are now looking for a firewall solution to this problem. Have any of you our there encountered this problem. How did you solve it? Thanks. /dan -- Dan Schlitt schlitt () world std com
