Hi Paul,
 
Incoming traffic should be. Outgoing traffic won't because its leaving
via the packet filters, not Protocol Rules.

        Thanks Tom!

         

        Just so I understand correctly, if we remove the publishing
packet filters and create a protocol rule then the traffic will be
picked up in the report jobs?

         

        Unfortunately we cant do anything about the Exchange running on
the SBS box unless we can get the client to pony up the dough for
another server :-)

         

        Cheers

        Hi Paul,

         

        Are you using packet filters or publishing rules to publish the
Exchange Server? Keep in mind that if the SMTP service is on the ISA
firewall itself, it uses a packet filter to send outbound messages
instead of Protocol Rules, so that traffic will not be included in the
reports or the packet filter logs. You could enable logging for allow
filters, but you haven't seen nothin' yet in terms of log file sizes if
you do that ;-)

         

        BTW -- just another reason not to run enterprise groupware
servers on a Firewall.

         

        HTH,

        Tom,

in report jobs

                http://www.ISAserver.org

                Hi all, 

                 

                One of our clients recently received a hefty internet
usage bill for using 7.5gb over their 3 gb limit. 

                 

                Looking thru the logs we've accounted for approximately
5gb of traffic and we think that the Exchange server is where the rest
of it has come from. 

                 

                Is there a trick to allow ISA to capture SMTP traffic?
It does show up in the report jobs as SMTP but with 0 next to it. 

                 

                Due to disk space limitations we cant enable maximum
logging on the ISA server. 

                 

                The client is running SBS2000 with Exchange and ISA on
the same machine and the Exchange server was published under ISA. 

                 

                Any help would be appreciated !

                 

                Cheers
