I read someplace that IIS 5 (if I remember the version correctly) has a bug that will let a cracker execute anything on your Win2k server. They have a patch for it which you can download from Microsquish. Good luck with the ICS - I've got Caldera 2.4 as my server (eDesktop with IPchains) - and I've tried to turn off any services I don't need to try and keep it secure. I've got a firewall file set up - but I'm going to keep researching to see if I can make it better. (rc.firewall).
