Mine didn't work either. I actually had made a change (joined a domain or changed server name or added an ip). I ended up recreating it by hand. Sorry.

There have been NO changes to this array...it is on the exact same machine with the exact same service pack (2000 and ISA). Anybody have a way to read the BIF and get the rules out of there? I don't want to create this by hand, but it looks like I have no choice in this matter.
