Re: System i on the web (was RE: Fooling around with VRPG)

Charles,

clearly "direct" wasn't meant in a technical sense. "Direct" was meant in a logical sense. Port 80 is reflected directly onto an iSeries that acts both as Web Server and mission critical system. If some intruder finds an exploit in your web application it will be used on the very same machine that hold sensible data. You do the math.

I am not getting the separate NIC / DMZ thing. Do you want the iSeries to be inside or outside a DMZ?

Proxy:

Www <--> FW <--> Proxy <--> Web Server <--> iSeries

Mit freundlichen Grüßen
