Remote access problem

I need ideas for solving a remote access issue. Problem: Users in my organisation require a connection to an application running on a server in a second organisation. The solution they came up with was a IPSec tunnel terminating on a PIX box at their end and the pcs of the users in my organisation. My issues: The tunnel terminates inside my network, therfore I have no way of filtering the traffic in the tunnel. The will be using a cisco VPN client. Users need to be able to communicate with my network while the tunnel is up so I can't just cut them off while they use this facility. The second orgnaisation require the users to authenticate with their server, so I can't just put up a gateway - gateway solution. Any suggestions would be welcome. To add the cream to the cake the timeframe is very tight, infact they only thought my team (network security) might be interested a few weeks before they planned to test this !! (when will people realise that security conerns are best dealt with during design !) _______________________________________________ firewall-wizards mailing list firewall-wizards () honor icsalabs com http://honor.icsalabs.com/mailman/listinfo/firewall-wizards
