Hi,

Not sure if this is the right group to post in if not maybe someone can
guide me in the right direction, I need a basic answer to a well not so
complexed question but by the time you've finished reading it you might be
as confused as me lol

I have a multi site company that needs to link certain clients to a specific
server, these links although internal to the company need to be encrypted
from other departments, the clients are in building A & B and the server is
in building A

The server is connected to other systems that can not be changed IE SMTP
gateways etc but the system that is running that the clients need access to
needs to be secured, it also has the ability to open files that are on the
server so this would require the ability to use the Microsoft File shareing
services.

The system that needs to be connected to may use various IP ports including
Telnet, so SSH was thought of at this time but this causes a problem when
coming to file and print services via the server, hence IPSec...

There are 2 Routers to pass through so if there is any IP ports that need to
be opened then please advise there also

Thanks
