the

> Here are the client goals:

> 1> Have two or more IIS and MS-SQL boxes that can all authenticate user
> logons to a web application via the same accounts database. The database
of

>
> PROPOSAL:
> HAVE THE IIS AND SQL BOXES JOIN A SPECIAL DOMAIN DESIGNED JUST FOR THESE
> MACHINES (WIN2KDOMAIN2).

> QUESTIONS:
> A> IS THIS THE BEST WAY TO DO THIS?
> B> WHAT IS THE MINIMUM PORT OPENINGS BETWEEN THE IIS AND SQL BOXESTO THE
> WIN2KDOMAIN2 DOMAIN CONTROLLER(S) NEEDED TO SUPPORT THIS?
> C> IS THERE A METHOD OF PREVENTING A LIST OF ACCOUNTS BEING BROUGHT UP ON
> THESE DOMAIN MEMBERS SHOULD THE BOX EVER BE COMPROMISED? CAN THIS BE DONE
BY

> D> CAN ANYONE RECOMMEND A HOST BASED FIREWALL / IDS SYSTEM FOR THE DOMAIN

> 2> The client has an INTERNAL Win2K ADS domain already set up, and they
want

(IISbox1

ot

be

> PROPOSAL:
> CONFIGURE A TWO WAY KERBEROS TRUST BETWEEN THE DOMAINS. POKE A HOLE IN THE
> FIREWALL ON TCP AND UDP PORTS 88 TO ALL FOR KERBEROS TRAFFIC FLOWING TO
> WIN2KDOMAIN1.

> QUESTIONS:
> A> ARE THESE PORT OPENINGS ENOUGH TO SUPPORT THIS TRUST RELATIONSHIP?
