Cool yeah I'm setting up an IPsec VPN (via our new Sonicwall Pro 200 firewall) and trying to integrate it with Win2k IAS (RADIUS server) for authentication.

Once that's going, I'll work on getting these IP telephones working at our remote offices. IP telephony is pretty damn cool. We're using the Nortel BCM phone switch (a PC-driven, IP-enabled update to the old Norstar system) and it's feature-packed.

Already got the fax server going a few months ago. Works great with analog DID lines (i.e. everyone has their own fax number and faxes go right into their own Outlook inbox). I ended up going with Faxination because it's a good value. RightFax is awesome but expensive as hell. Faxination has a lot of bang for the buck.

My favorite project though was installing a "Music Server" for the office. People can listen to whatever they want at their desks via WMP and we have several Audiotrons throughout the office that tap into it as well. Everyone loves it.

i seem to recall a company being busted for doing this because they used downloaded songs.

Thought of that... no downloaded songs on it at all. We had a "CD appeal" whereby all employees who wanted to contribute brought in their CDs and we ripped 'em all. Push comes to shove, they'd be willing to "donate" the CDs to the office so we're legit.

Am I the only one doing embedded software here?
