Is the only way to do this, then, to log in my ISA server under a user account with permissions? (I should say here that we don't use SQL logins, only MS authentication on the SQL server). This seems an odd way to go, having to have the server 'logged in' in order for this to work.

I setup where my SQL machine resides so that when I create an ODBC rule, the host header knows what to grab. I'm not sure where your SQL machine resides. I have a back to back setup ISASERVER >> DMZ >> ISASERVER >> SQL MACHINE On my second ISA server is where I have the publishing rule for the SQL machine. Machines in the DMZ use the hosts file to point to the external NIC of the internal ISASERVER. I also, don't use "SA" without a password nor do I use "SA" with a password on my machines in the DMZ or external ISASERVER. On my SQL Machine, I create a local user (example) LoggingUser with log on locally rights. Then I create a new logon user in SQL and point to my statistics DB as the default DB for that user. Once all that is done and you have created similar users on the machines in the DMZ then you can utilize a trusted connection via only with "LoggingUser" This user does not need to be part of the internal ACTIVE DIRECTORY. So, when you create you ODBC connection specify the LoggingUser account along with your password that you setup for that account. Rember the password would be the same on the ISASERVER LoggingUser and the SQL LoggingUser.

I followed the article on ISAserver.org and I can test the ODBC connection fine, but when I configure the logging and restart the service I get an error indicating I don't have permissions. This is a remote SQL box, do I have to configure the services to start under another user account or...something? Any help is appreciated. Tx.
