Re: [fw-wiz] Allowing Internet Access to MS Project Server


Hi Duncan,

I have, some times ago, face the same challenge. And we have set a Citrix server
hosting the MS Project application (not the 2007 version), with a dedicated AD
forest for external users.
The Citrix server is accessed through a VPN connection.

So, an external user need :
* Credential from the security team to access the VPN.
* Credentials from the MS Project team to access the application.

The VPN credentials can be simple password, soft or hard certificate (depends of
your security policy).

Regards,
JDG

Subject: [fw-wiz] Allowing Internet Access to MS Project Server

Hi;

A IT project Managers would like to install MS Project 2007
server and make that the central repository for all our IT
related projects. Since we have significant numbers of out
sourced contractors, the team would like external access
enabled. Also to keep costs low they would like the server
to have a Internet presence. Our server support team would
like the server(s) to be part of our internal AD domain.

We have OWA exposed to the Internet, but through a secure
proxy.

What would should be some key security areas.

Thanks,
Duncan Sharp
