    Hi Sean, well as you realize there are many, many possible solutioins out there to deal
    with matters such as yours. This is why as you now realize it is best to be as
    descriptive as possible when asking for comments. Almost every such scenario can be
    custom designed, and or tailored imho. Hence the requirement for as much detail as
    possible. Much like snowflakes various networks have their differeing qualities.

    Cheers

    I wasn't particularly looking for a solution, or product. I was looking

    that gave me little or no information, which did not answer my (probably
    not well written) question. I'll make sure I am more specific in the
    future, so I don't get bombarded with "Didn't you google," or "Didn't
    they teach you that in _____."

    I think it's better if we start out with you describing what you're
    trying
    to accomplish. Terms like "extranet" have been so overloaded for so
    long
    that the idea you have could be completely different than the one anyone
    else does.
