Well initially i thought of setting up an ISA firewall to be able to block
ports and have some url blocking.
Could you suggest what else we could do to prevent certain websites from
being accessed namely streaming video/ music? At another time we would also
want to limit yahoo messenging to certain hours of the day.
Our server will be used as domain controller, file and printer server.

I was hoping also to use our server as a DHCP server for the primary reason
that I am used to it. As right now I do not know how to view leased
addresses within the cisco 1841 console.
