Now I'm facing some problems of understanding which you can hopefully help me get rid of. - Do I have to make ISA or the Exchange Server the VPN client? - ISA does not support L2TP-tunneling, does it? I would rather not use PPTP, as does the provider - So, do I have to set up a static route to the ISP mail server on the ISA machine? With RAS? (btw I already tried that but the route seems to work only on ISA itself? - of course it didn't work but I wanted to see what happens :-) - Can this route point to an interface that I created with the VPN wizard of RAS? - Or is this configuration completely impossible? - And finally if it *is* possible, what kind of packet filters to I have to set within ISA? Can I use Tom's article on ISA to RAS connections as a guideline or is there some substantial difference between a gateway-to-gateway configuration and my idea of ISA being a "client" for that matter? As always, thanks for listening!
