Re: Web access to web server in private LAN

It would be a security best practice to simply use a reverse proxy or
filtered port forwarding inward to the IIS box.

Putting this box on your DMZ would require many holes in your
firewall/filter/etc to facilitate Windows/NetBIOS/etc access.

Hi DM

Moving to the DMZ would be the best solution. Is there a reason that
they can't/wont move it? This could form part of your TRA, ie the
expensive to move out weighs the risks, etc..

Using a reverse proxy like Squid is OK, but not prefered.

Hello everybody,

my organization has an Apache web server for world wide access in the
DMZ. Right now, another department want to made their own IIS server
(installed on their private LAN) available from the Internet. How can
I manage that kind of access without moving the IIS to the DMZ? Could
I use a reverse proxy or something like that?

Thanks in advance and best regards

DM
