Hey Gang,
I have just encountered a problem that I need some direction with.
I give some people access to my box to host their domains. Up until a few
days ago everyone had a static ip address so I could protect my daemons
with iptables. Now all of a sudden everybody has gone dynamic.
I have done some preliminary research and I have some ideas BUT I am
looking for some real world experiences.
Here are some of the things I saw:
1. Maybe wrap pop3 with stunnel
2. vpn to the box?
I guess my questions are:
1. What is the easiest solution?
At this moment I am thinking that I should implement a VPN firewall
appliance and go though that to a second ethernet card. It would definately
be the easiest solution.
