Gochersef some good quality stuff, eh?
:-)
It has nothing to do with the FWC, and everything to do with the LAT.
ISA 2000 did not apply any filtering at all to traffic originating in the LAT.
ISA 2004 applies filtering to traffic originating from anywhere; including
itself.

Just to know if I am not smoking crack, it had to do with the local address
table (LAT) that worked with fwclient, right?

That "PSS tech" was greatly misinformed.
This was true for ISA 2000, but not for ISA 2004.

RDP is working fine from the Terminal Server to the SBS Server now, I had to
re-associate the internal NIC with the RDP connection at one point, but that's
a different issue. First time I've run into it, but apparently there is an RPC
issue (Outlook 2003 uses RPC) between the Terminal Server and the SBS Server
(which has ISA Server on it). This was also my first SBS & Exchange setup, so
I've been stressing on it and a bit grumpy lately from lack of sleep and heat
from the client to "get it done" ;-)
Steve Moffat had it right when he said the "The W2K3 RPC issue with W2k3 SP1"
I believe.
This brings up an interesting point. I was told by one MS tech @ PSS that
internal communications between computers on my internal network and the SBS
Server (with ISA 2004) should not be scanned by the ISA Server, however, that
does not appear to be correct. Live and learn.
There is a microsoft article on the RPC issue at
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=KB;EN-US;897716
I started a thread on this at
http://forums.isaserver.org/Outlook_Terminal_Server_to_SBS_Exchange_Issue/m_
2
002006699/tm.htm
which is at All Forums >> [ISA Server 2004 General ] >> ISA 2004 SBS >>
Outlook Terminal Server to SBS Exchange Issue where Kyle had the solution.
Now, I am having a hard time being able to tell what service pack for ISA is
already installed, as the help about does not display an SP1 or SP2. Please
see the thread, and answer if you can, at All Forums >> [ISA Server 2004
General ] >> Installation >> ISA 2004 SP!
The version # I'm seeing on my installation is 4.0.2163.213. Am trying to
figure out if I can just install the update as indicated by the Microsoft
article, or if I need to install SP1 or SP2 first. From all the traffic going
on about SP2, I'm real hesitant to put that one on, though it should include
the hotfix I need.
Thanks for your attention,
Anthony

Terminal Services? Are you sure you're not confusing RDP and RPC? :) Or maybe I
am just silly and understood that the wrong way...

If you're asking me. I'd say don't install SP2. There's really not much benefit
for such a small firm. I'd instead focus on getting the server configured and
leave SP2 for later. What known RPC issue? I've got terminal servers all over
the place and have never had an RPC problem.
FYI: addressing your email directly to Dr. Shinder is a sure fire way to have
it ignored by everyone else on the list.

Thank you for the reply Steve,
It appears that most of the folks here are too busy to assist newbies like
myself, they've got more important things to talk about like "how to waste an
hour of your life"...good grief...
The message boards don't seem to have many of you advanced folks helping out
much--or maybe just with my basic questions. I guess I get what I paid for.
Maybe it's the SBS thing...I feel like a leper. If it weren't for SBS I never
would have been introduced to ISA Server, though.
Argh, I don't want to rant and alienate the folks here but I'm frustrated with
the lack of responses on basic questions. I've been reading, googling and
experimenting a lot (ISA, SBS, Exchange) some of it sticks, some of it doesn't.
Is there a more appropriate website or board I should use for beginner
questions?
Again, thank you for your reply, Steve, and apologies for the rant,
Anthony

It can be installed remotely, but ou need to be physically there to restart the
server, or have someone do it for you as it stops requests on completion.
Yes install it.

Dr. Thomas,
I was looking to install the upgrade ISA Server 2004 SP2 soon due to an issue
between my Terminal Server (Win2K3 SP1) not communicating with my SBS Server
with regards to Outlook 2003 due to a known RPC issue.
I am a newbie in regards to ISA. And SBS. Though the school of hard knocks is
training me quick ;-)
What is the sequence to delete an existing cache?
Will BITS caching be turned on by default when installing SP2?
What is the sequence to configure BITS caching?
Do you advise installing ISA SP2 in a small network setup (10 -
15 users) ?
I've read a few times here that installing ISA SP2 through terminal services is
not advised. Maybe it is OK if you hook in with the /console switch.
What is your take on this issue?
Thanks,
Anthony
