  1. More Power Out: Empowering your mobile workforce Rick Claus IT Pro Advisor Microsoft Canada rclaus@microsoft.com http://blogs.technet.com/rclaus xBox Live: Rickster CDN Damir Bersinic IT Pro Advisor Microsoft Canada damirb@microsoft.com http://blogs.technet.com/damirb

  2. Session Goals: • Allow your workforce to be mobile and connected • Configure your environment to maximize your mobile workforce experience • Best Practices, Tools and Tips.

  3. Agenda • Remote Access Scenarios • Publishing Web Sites with ISA Server 2004 • Authentication Methods for SharePoint • Publishing OWA, OMA, RPC over HTTPS • Publishing Live Communication Server 2005

  4. Remote Access ScenariosTraditional Remote Access Methods • File Transfer Protocol (FTP) Sites • Secure connections using the Internet • Lack of functionality • Administrative expense • Dial-up Remote Access Server (RAS) • Secure direct connections • Expensive (server resources) • Administrative expense • Virtual Private Networks (VPN) • Secure connections using the Internet • Expensive (server resources) • Administrative expense

  5. Remote Access ScenariosExtranets • Accessible to Web browsers • HTTP and HTTPS access • Low administrative costs • Secure connections using the Internet • Different authentication mechanisms available • Fully-functional Web-based applications • Line-of-business applications • SharePoint Portal Sites • Collaborative SharePoint team sites • Consistent user-experience • Intranet access • Extranet and Internet access

  6. Remote Access ScenariosRPC over HTTPS Proxies • Allows for VPN-less connections while still providing strong security • More and more applications are supporting RPC proxies via HTTPS using SSL tunnels • Outlook 2003 SP1 can use RPC over HTTPS • Other applications are planned in the future

  7. Agenda • Remote Access Scenarios • Publishing Web Sites with ISA Server 2004 • Authentication Methods for SharePoint Web Sites • Publishing OWA, OMA, RPC over HTTPS • Publishing Live Communication Server 2005

  8. ISA Server Web Server Domain Controller Publishing Web Sites with ISA Server 2004ISA Server Firewalls

  9. demonstration • ISA Server 2004 Overview • ISA Management MMC • Rules, Listeners, Publishing

  10. Publishing Web Sites with ISA Server 2004Server Publishing • Typically used for services other than Web or FTP • Examples: SQL Server, SMTP Services • Used for Live Communications Server 2005 TLS • Can be used for publishing Web sites • Not recommended • Lack of configuration flexibility • External HTTP requests can bypass the Web proxy service

  11. Publishing Web Sites with ISA Server 2004Link Translation • Some Web applications use absolute addresses for resources and hyperlinks • Can result in inaccessibility to users on the Internet or extranet • Can expose computer names and IP addresses to hackers • Can be confusing to users on the intranet • SharePoint applications often use a mix of relative and absolute addresses • Server names • IP addresses • ISA Server allows string substitution to resolve absolute address issues

  12. Agenda • Remote Access Scenarios • Publishing Web Sites with ISA Server 2004 • Authentication Methods for SharePoint Web Sites • Publishing OWA, OMA, RPC over HTTPS • Publishing Live Communication Server 2005

  13. Authentication Methods for SharePoint Web SitesSecuring SharePoint Applications • SharePoint supports a number of different authentication scenarios • Anonymous access • Basic authentication • Windows authentication • SSL and certificate authentication • SharePoint users and groups are used to control access to sites, libraries, and other resources

  14. Authentication Methods for SharePoint Web SitesAuthentication for Published SharePoint Sites • ISA Server 2004 can: • Pre-authenticate users • Often with basic authentication • Use SSL for basic authentication scenarios • Publishing a secure Web site • User credentials are encrypted by SSL • Use pass-through Windows authentication • Passes authentication to the SharePoint Web server

  15. demonstration • Securing SharePoint with ISA 2004 • Configure SharePoint Security • Configure External DNS for Site Access • Publish SharePoint Site Using ISA 2004 • Connecting to SharePoint Site from External Network

  16. Agenda • Remote Access Scenarios • Publishing Web Sites with ISA Server 2004 • Authentication Methods for SharePoint Web Sites • Publishing OWA, OMA, RPC over HTTPS • Publishing Live Communication Server 2005
