Joseph, In answer to your question re moving files past the internal firewall, have you considered setting up an FTP server in your internal network and publish the ftp server on your internal isa to only allow DMZ machines to upload files to it. This way you could setup scripts to ftp the logs to your internal server for processing. Now I may have helped, can I be cheeky and ask if you are willing to share any code for analysing ISA/IIS/Event logs with the list ? I am sure that most people here either have or are considering writing similar tools. You never know, with a little collaboration we might even produce a tool as good as webtrends :-) Patrick -----Original Message----- From: cismic [mailto:cismic@xxxxxxx] Sent: 25 September 2001 06:27 To: [ISAserver.org Discussion List] Subject: [isalist] RE: test http://www.ISAserver.org Tom, Things with SMTP can be frustrating! I've not yet activated the internal mail server yet. Have been learning about all the other things first. And there are many of the other things. Right now I've been busy working on programs to parse logs from ISA machine, a program to read the event log looking for port scans, and a tool to parse IIS logs. All of the information is then imported into SQL and I use stored procedures generating data for use in charts and graphs. When those are done I'll get started on my mail server! Were still using external mail servers so installation hasn't been much of an issue yet. No a quick question. I still need an automated way to pull all that information off the External ISA machine, my Web server in the DMZ and get that behind the internal ISA for analysis. Right now I've been moving it manually. Do you happen to have any ideas on how this could be automated? Thank you, Joseph -----Original Message----- From: Thomas W.

Also can't publish NNTP. But Web Publishing works OK. Perhaps its because I installed SP2 *before* ISA Server. Darned thing I've ever seen, but make me a lot more compassionate :-) Thanks!

Having a heck of a time making SMTP publishing work correctly. No matter what I do, the packet filter log shows inbound 25 is blocked. BUT, if I don't publish it, and just create a packet filter and let the IIS SMTP service listen on the external interface, and then create a remote domain in the IIS SMTP virtual server, and then configure the remote domain to use a Smart Host to on the internal network that relays to the Exchange server (who does not relay), it seem to work fine. How's that for layers of security :-) Thanks!
