    Hello,

    I've been tasked with creating my first ever network. Definitely
    exciting, but lots of stuff to know :) Given that, I wanted to run this
    by you guys and get some opinions. I work for a small firm of 20-25
    employees that use Windows 2000 and XP exclusively. They are planning to
    scale to a maximum of 50 people within a year. They have a full T1, and
    want to have an FTP server, VPN and OWA access. Web hosting is done by
    their ISP.

    Does this seem like a pretty secure set up for them:

    Internet -> Firewall -> (DMZ) FTP/OWA server (DMZ) -> DMZ Firewall ->
    Corporate LAN (with Exchange, employee machines, etc...)

    If so, any rec's on firewalls for something like this? Since it's a
    small firm, price is always an issue.

    thanks
    jm
