Hi Tom, Jim had responded in the MVP mailing list. That hotfix package does solve the Direct Access issue but the KB for this specific issue is still under review. If you reread KB 920716 in the context that it might solve multiple problems then that KB make sense. I expect that soon multiple KB's will be referenced under the heading "Issues that are fixed in the hotfix package" such as http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;920356 ;-) Greetings, Stefaan -----Original Message----- From: isapros-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:isapros-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Thomas W Shinder Sent: zaterdag 8 juli 2006 18:21 To: isapros@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [isapros] Re: Configuring Direct Access in ISA 2004 SP2 Hi Stefaan, That's got to be the whackieist KB article I've ever seen for a hotfix package. The only issue it fixes is with SSL tunneling on different ports, and I didn't even know there was an issue with that! :) I entered a tasteful comment on the page so maybe someone will read it someday.
