Yeah, I intend to host my applications on a corporate intranet site using active server pages (ASP). I'll be coding most of it and using canned stuff (especially the functionality in SQL server 2005) where I can. I've got it partially working.

The main hold up for now is VPN. We have some guys developing a tool for internal use and it isn't quite 100%. Our corporate solution relies on SecureId cards so if an oss application was developed that worked with our system that would be ideal. The main problem I'm having now is resolving short server names into fully qualified domain names (fqdn)... I can't seem to get the VPN development team to understand how important that is to some commercial apps (they tell me *I* should always use fqdn, duh, but try telling every third party developer).
