Hi ISA Server listers :))

I've got one question concerning the use of ISA Server as a reverse proxy.
My company is using an Oracle database with Oracle HTTP server to access data 
in two ways:

1. Client/server mode: a specific client has been developped to access the 
Oracle server. This client gets the Windows
credentials and transmits it to the Oracle server to perform authentification 
and SSI.

2. Thin client mode: Web browers are used to access Oracle HTTP Server.

In this second case, there is no SSO, and we do not retrieve Windows 
credentials.
In order to be in the same situation than 1, we thought about a solution bases 
on a reverse proxy configured to catch users
requests, retrieving username and transmitting it to Oracle.

Is this easily possible with ISA Server? In reverse proxy mode, can we launch 
scripts on ISA server?

Many thanks,
Patrice
