I got the firewall back to its status quo. It is allowing network access to the internet and filtering all unsolicited inbound traffic without any issues. I still have to segment the network using VLAN's at some point but that has become a tertiary priority.
Also, I made a big mistake with our file server which I added to the plan last week after my post. I used our install disks for Windows Small Business Server. It turns out that this version has to be the ROOT of the domain. So when it isn't it powers itself down without asking for permission. This makes building a remote environment a pain in the ass when your server unexpectedly will shut down without any notice. I've setup a plan to move the data to backup and reload the server with Win2k3 standard. But, as always, something has come up.
Steve got back into town this week and offered be a bonus opportunity. He has a video shoot in Florida the 2nd week of December and he needs the ICND1 and ICND2 slides redrawn for it. I also have to make them compatible with the CompTia Net+ certification. This is going to require removing all the Cisco proprietary information from the slides as well as redrawing them so that aren't using any Cisco marketing or proprietary information.
This is a pretty big project and it puts most of my other projects on hold until I'm done with it.
