Hi Paul, Can you enumerate the actual and reproducible reason for not joining the ISA firewall to the domain? "Hardware" firewall vendor's FUD does not count. Thanks!

Windows 2003. More details: A couple of weeks ago we 'upgraded' from ISA 2000 to ISA 2004. Most things worked okay, but we had some issues that didn't seem to work right, but worked in my test environment that I did a clean build. So I rebuilt the server from the ground up and this time did not join the ISA server to the Domain as recommended in the Microsoft docs. I have also seen people on this list recommend this setup. How can I base authentication off of AD? When I try to select my Domain it only shows the local computer accounts. As it stands now, I have to allow everything anonymous and my VPN clients cannot connect because it cannot authenticate to AD. I want to require authentication from my AD. We do not have nor plan on using a RADIUS server. Is this still possible? Thanks! ------------------------------------------------------ List Archives: http://www.webelists.com/cgi/lyris.pl?enter=isalist ISA Server Newsletter: http://www.isaserver.org/pages/newsletter.asp ISA Server FAQ: http://www.isaserver.org/pages/larticle.asp?type=FAQ ------------------------------------------------------ Other Internet Software Marketing Sites: World of Windows Networking: http://www.windowsnetworking.com Leading Network Software Directory: http://www.serverfiles.com No.1 Exchange Server Resource Site: http://www.msexchange.org Windows Security Resource Site: http://www.windowsecurity.com/ Network Security Library: http://www.secinf.net/ Windows 2000/NT Fax Solutions: http://www.ntfaxfaq.com ------------------------------------------------------ You are currently subscribed to this ISAserver.org Discussion List as: tshinder@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe visit http://www.webelists.com/cgi/lyris.pl?enter=isalist Report abuse to listadmin@xxxxxxxxxxxxx
