RE: [cobalt-users] Qube 2 and Network Design

How much are you willing to spend?  I've done this in the past using a
Watchguard Firebox II firewall.  Put the NT servers on the DMZ and the
workstations on the Trusted interface.

Since the cube doesn't route, you are not going to be able to put the public
servers on the same wire as the workstations and have them accessable from
the outside (much less see it).
