In the last paragraph, I meant to say Windows Server 2003 and not "Windows
Server 2004" ............

Subject: [isalist] What is the Best Practice for Installing ISA Server 2004?

This question goes to everyone on this list and especailly to Dr. Thomas W.
Shinder.
I am about to install ISA Server 2004 on a Windows Server 2003. As a best
practice (according to Microsoft) one has to install all service packs and
security updates on the Windows Server 2003 before installing ISA Server
2004.
I was reading Dr. Thomas Shinder's article dated August 16th, 2005 and
entitled " Using the Windows Server 2003 Security Configuration Wizard to
Harden the ISA Firewall" and he made a "Note" in this article saying "Make
sure that ISA Server 2004 Service Pack 1 is installed on the ISA firewall
before installing Windows Server 2003 SP1".
I am a little bit confused as to how to go about the installation of ISA
Server 2004. If I go ahead and follow Microsoft best practice, that means
that after the installation of Windows Server 2003 on a new server, I have
to install SP1 and any updates that came after SP1 for Windows Server 2003
before I go ahead and install ISA Server 2004 and the SP1 for ISA Server
2004. If I go ahead and follow what Dr. Shinder is saying in his article,
that means after the installation of Windows Server 2003 on a new computer,
I have to go ahead and install ISA Server 2004 and its SP1 before I install
SP1 for Windows Server 2004. I need help here as to which way to go first.
Thank you all.
Tony
