Let me give you a little more info as i hope that helps.  I am setting
up a server within a NAT environment.  This server is Windows 2003 with
ISA 2000 with hotfix 255.  I have to network interfaces, one enabled,
one disabled.  I only need on interface to work as this machine is going
to be setup to be a commercial webserver.  This webserver will only have
ONE live ip address.  I am setting it up within our NAT environment to
get it ready for deployment.  Once deployed i will change it to the live
IP address.  
 
During the install of ISA onto the Windows 2003 server i installed in
Firewall Mode (as that is all that is needed to protect the webserver).
When asking me to construct the LAT table i used the internal IP address
that this machine is now, 192.168.1.100 and the future live IP address
it will be.  Routing and Remote access will not be used on this machine.

 
I have completed the full install and based on previous installs i have
worked on ISA installs with all ports closed and i would have to open
them to make them work.  Before I even touch ISA all ports are open,
which means i can connect to lets say Terminal Services even though i
have not made a rule allowing that port to be open.  This shows me that
the Firewall Service isn't even working.  There are no errors in the
event log and I am stumped to why ISA is not working.  Thanks for the
help.
