    Greetings everyone.

    As the network administrator (and security minded person) for our small
    local government network (300 users), I've been asked to make our
    internal email (Exchange 2003) and other applications (not web based
    apps, just internal) and files available from the internet through our
    Checkpoint firewall. I've done much reading on Outlook Web Access and
    it's security implications as well as followed the many topics here
    regarding remote access. What I haven't seen mentioned here as an
    alternative to OWA is Citrix via the Presentation Server and Secure
    Gateway.

    Assuming you deploy the Citrix solution properly, apply patches, etc,
    what is the general consensus regarding Citrix? Good idea? Bad idea?
    At this point I haven't deployed or setup anything, and I'm not looking
    for specific instructions or how-to's, rather a feel for which I'm going
    to have the least amount of trouble with, and an answer to the statement
    my supervisor(s) make that "everybody else does it, why can't we?"

    Thank you much.
    BrianG
