 You don't need to use ISA 2004 for HTTP/RPC. You could do regular web
publishing from the firewall. You just need the firewall to publish the /rpc
virtual directory on your exchange server as secure web (https).
 
ISA is good becuase is gets you to offload SSL and off-load the RPC-HTTP
proxy tasks, and do a primary authentication on behalf of the webserver (so
un-authenticated traffic never touches the Exchange Server). But if you want
the SSL and HTTP-Proxy handled by the Exchange Server, then your TZ is good
enough.
 
This is what you need at the minimum (high level overview):
 
(OUTLOOK client) Internet---------> any firewall ------------ Exchange
2003/Windows 2003--------------------domain controlller
 
FiREWALL. : enabled secure web publishing for the rpc virtual directory on
the exchange 2003 server.
Domain Controller : Runs the CA for certificates for IIS on exchange. Domain
controller is also GC, DC, DNS (internal), and the usual stuff
Windows 2003: RPC/HTTP installed
Exchange 2003: SP1 installed. RPC/HTTP enabled. Certifictate installed on
IIS.
OUTLOOK client: Configure RPC/HTTP.

RPC over HTTP/HTTPS is only supported/available using ISA 2004.
