Hi Jason,
 
What about this section?
 
Configure the Client to Use the Fully Qualified wpad Alias

        Hi Tom,
         
        Ok, I've just gone through the whole thing, and it seems that I
have just forgotten to add the CNAME to our DNS. So I've done this.
        What I would love to know though, is what a correct
http://cerberus/wspad.dat query looks like. And wether or putting that
URL into IE should return something. (I know this isn't the way its
*meant* to work, I'm just guessing that *something* should be returned
from that URL if its working correctly) Because at the moment, I just
get a 404.
         
        Thank you for your patience!
         
        Cheers,
         
        Jason

                        Hi Tom,
                         
                        It does appear as though DHCP is working though.
Here's an example of the regular firewall logs that keep coming up:

                        5/13/2004 3:31:17 PM <client IP> 0.0.0.0
http://cerberus/wspad.dat anonymous 8080  http     GET  No Proxy
CERBERUS  cerberus TCP  - -  -  - - - 0 1 0 56 0x0 0x0 0x0 Web Proxy
Filter 0.0.0.0
                        
                         
                        Note that the origin of the request is from a
user that isn't an Administrator or Power User.
                         
                        What concerns me at the moment is that there is
indeed nothing published at http://cerberus/wspad.dat surely there
should be? In fact, the file wspad.dat isn't to be found anywhere on the
ISA server. Do you know at which point is this file created and
published?
                         
                        Cheers,
                         
                        Jason

                                That may solve your problem, but it
sounds like you still have a significant name resolution issue and
correct qualification of unqualified WPAD DNS queries. Remember that
DHCP WPAD only works for Adminstrators and I believe, Power Users.

                                Aha! I think I've found the problem.
                                 
                                The AutoDiscovery information was just
not being published.
                                 
                                From Help File:

                                To publish automatic discovery
information

                                1.      In the console tree of ISA
Server Management, click Firewall Policy. 

                                        Where? <ms-its:Y:\Microsoft ISA
Server 2004 Beta\isa.chm::/FW_H_PublishAutoDisc.htm#> 

                                *       Microsoft ISA Server 2004

                                2.      In the details pane, select the
applicable network (usually Internal). 
                                3.      On the Tasks tab, click Edit
Selected Network. 
                                4.      On the Auto Discovery tab,
select Publish automatic discovery information. 
                                5.      In Use this port for automatic
discovery requests, type the port number on which the ISA Server should
listen for WPAD and WSPAD requests. 

                                 Notes

                                *       To open ISA Server Management,
click Start, point to All Programs, point to Microsoft ISA Server, and
then click ISA Server Management. 
                                *       Click the Apply button in the
details pane to save the changes and update the ISA Server
configuration. 

                                </snip>

                                Hopefully this will sort things out :)
