Yes, these are proxy clients. The workstations have the firewall client
loaded. I did try adding the ip address to the hosts file on the isa
server before coming to the list but it didn't appear to work. If I ping
the domain name from the server I do get the address back that I want
but when I try to view the site in the browser I get the other one. I
cleared the cache from my browser, no help. Is there an easy way to
clear cache from the ISA server?

..unless it's a web proxy client, in which case, the ISA performs name
resolution.

Given that this test failure is a web site, I'm inclined to think that
this is the case.

Place the "fake" site IP in the hosts file on the ISA and restart the
web proxy services.

First, trying to have two different IP addresses for 2 different
websites with only one FQDN is asking for problems.

 

If the workstation is not using the HOSTS file first, something is
wrong. It must always use the HOSTS file first.

 

Please check the configuration.

How can I configure the ISA server not to use DNS to look up the ip
address of a particular domain name? 

 

Here is the situation. The website is being updated. The old website is
still online at www.ourcompany.com <http://www.ourcompany.com/> . The
new website is under construction and being housed on another server.
Users need to be able to type www.ourcompany.com
<http://www.ourcompany.com/>  and get to the under construction website
not the old website being used by clients. 

 

Before ISA server I could simply add (newIP address) www.ourcompany.com
<http://www.ourcompany.com/>  to the host file of the workstation. But
now the workstation doesn't go to its host file to resolve names it uses
the DNS on our ISA server. Both website locations are off-site. How can
I specify the IP address of my domain so that the workstations will look
only at the under construction location and not the one in DNS?
