Mike -----Original Message----- From: Mike Carlson Sent: Monday, November 05, 2001 8:21 PM To: [ISAserver.org Discussion List] Subject: [isalist] VPN http://www.ISAserver.org From reading the doco, I noticed something about not be able to enable a VPN if you have ISA set to do caching. Can I disable caching and allow a VPN to work without reinstalling ISA? I really don't want to reinstall it. Is there a way around the caching issue.
