Hi all. I'm new here.
Got a question, I am currently admining a small domain, running a win2k3 DC/Infrastructure box, a file server and an Exchange 2003 server.
I'm trying to set up a Win2k3 server that straddles our firewall with an external interface with a public IP (mail.company.com and the MX resolve to this external address) and an internal interface on our LAN. I want to use this as an SMTP forwarder that passes all incoming messages to the exchange server.
Ultimately I will be isntalling ISA 2004 on this box as well and using it as an RPC over HTTP proxy for the exchange box, as well as to publish OWA externally.
So this first step here is just getting the smtp service properly configured to route messages incomming on the external interface to the exchange server on the internal interface.
any suggestions, critisizm or alternate ideas would rock!
