NRG (Network Response Group) installed Novell Border Manager for Community
Library.
We have one IP address coming in to our system.
All the internal 30+ PC's & servers have 10.x.x.x addresses
The dedicated website pc is in a separate zone with read only access to the
website files from another file server.
The treasurer's PC is completely off the network. Hard to get any safer
than that.
I run ZoneAlarm on a portable and never get a hit while on the network.
But when on a modem it gets constant hits.
Our system has worked out quite well so far.

Good day,
I am wondering what other libraries are using for their Firewall solution.
Ours has been in operation for over five years, and I would like to start
planning for its replacement before it decides to stop working. Putnam
County is a small to medium sized library. We do not have a webserver, or
an email server. Basically, we only use the firewall to block unwanted
access to our internal network. I would appreciate any responses.
Thanks,
Gary Plescher
