Hello all. I want to secure the network traffic of the users on my LAN, I want to secure the MSN and ICQ data so people on the building can't use a sniffer and watch the conversations. I have something like this: Internet Internet ^ ^ | | router ( sniffer in here ) | | | | | | | FBSD server <------ VPN/IPSEC ------> FBSD server on a secure network | | Swith/hub | | ----- | LAN | ----- Right now i have an tunnel with IPSEC to another FreeBSD Server the one is on a secure network and on a different building, what i was thinking to do, was to install a proxy on the Secure FreeBSD server and configure the MSN/ICQ clients to use that proxy so only that traffic could go out using the secure network. I would like to know if there is a better option for securing this communications, or if this idea is fine and what proxy software do you recommend to install for doing this. regards
