Hi there

I am trying to troubleshoot a problem when accessing a partner website, and
one of my tests is to telnet to the site on port 80. In order to verify my
connection I have a PIX firewall on the external interface of my ISA on
which I have a debug running to show if the traffic is in fact getting
through.

When I do a simple tracert to the partner website I see the traffic 100%,
but when I try and telnet to port 80 I don't see anything.

Now my naïve logic is telling me that because ISA is a proxy server, it is
proxying this telnet http request of mine, but I cannot think as to how I
can "adjust" ISA to actually let the traffic through...

I know I waffling, if anyone has any suggestions I would greatly appreciate
it.

Thanks
William R.
