...from windows 2003 domain enviroment ? what is SSL? Senario:
small network only 40 to 50 host and server win xp 2003 domail enviroment :

ISP ----- modem/ADSL ---- SERVER2003 ------ switch ------ [30 - 50 hosts]

your server will need 2 NIC cards installed.
1 connected to the adsl box and 1 connected to your LAN switch.

switch will have to cater for the hosts so a decent sized switch such as a cisco catalyst 2950 - should do the job?

SSL (secure socket layer) is a security protocol and it works on port 443 if i remember correctly?

it makes use of encryption (public/private keys) to securely transfer data from one computer to another .

I'm a bit confused. Share internet? If you wish to have a domain that will host up to 30 visitors, that's easy enough, but you certainly don't need Server 2003 to do that. You can simply get a domain on an existing server and rest space. Setting up your own server can be quite complex and expensive. Now if you wish to communicate between nodes (workstation computers) on a closed network, you don't need internet access to do that. It is likely however that you will need help setting up the network for that many terminals. SSL means single socket layers. It's a form of encoding that connects two computers over the internet and allows a secure connection so that transactions can take place without the worry of disruption.
