The Solution Rating System
|
|
| With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating. - The Grade of the Solution
- The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
- The Number of Author and Expert Comments
- The Number of Experts Contributing
- The Feedback of the Community
Your Input Matters Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site. If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support. Thank you! |

Asked by Meadowlarson in SBS Small Business Server, Exchange Email Server, Windows Network Security
I was recently challenged by a tech from a competing company, about the security risk of SBS2003. He fancies himself to be a Linux guru and had nothing good to say about Microsoft.
I ordinarily deploy SBS via the wizards such as CEICW and I'm pretty confident in my understanding of what each step of the wizard is doing. I also make it a practice to have email delivered directly to their server through Exchange. I generally setup OWA etc for the client so I open ports 443, 4125, 25 (and 3389 for me) on the modem/router. (I use the SSL certificate generated by SBS).
I don't use ISA as I have never ventured into it, but I do understand what it does.
My question is, how secure is a default setup such as this? Is this Linux guru just being a d**khead?
