Blocking Windows Messenger for access outside the company

M

M.Siler

I'm running Windows 2000 & Exchange 2000 - I'd like to use Windows Messenger
5.0 within our company but I want to stop people from accessing IM outside
the company. Is this possible - if so how??

Windows Messenger service is not the same as IM. Anyhow you would need to use
firewall rules to prevent users from accessing services on the internet that you
do not want them to. It is best to start with a default block all outbound
access rule and then add just the necessary/approved services via
ports/protocols/ip addresses. -- Steve
