    What are the exact services you are trying to run through the fw? I use to
    have Outlook running through our pix fw, but because I got paranoid about
    having so many ports open I now force users to use OWA (through ssl) or log
    in to the VPN.

    When we were using Outlook, I did following the MS KB article and forced it
    to use only the ports I chose and opened those up on the fw. Worked like a
    champ, but again, bad idea in my eyes.

    I'm curious about what other services you're talking about running through.
    Are these services exposed to the Internet or some Intranet?

    regards,
    Michael
