I'm fairly new to ISA, about 6-9 monhs now with fair success, so I'm not
compleatly sure on the following. So this is the thought I'm having,
wouldn't you be better served if you used one nic for you server/servers and
the other to control your other internet access needs? I'm thinking the
general server items such as web and email on one address and then setup the
other to support your web browsing and maybe run FTP, VPN, ... what have
that might require login/password control for access to/from your location?
As to whether you can publish a server to both nics, I don't see why not,
I'm not sure I understand why you'd want to, besides the possable redunant
line access to your server in the event one of your ISP's is down.

I want to have one ISP on 1 external interface and another ISP on the 2nd
external interface. Since I will have 2 public address (one on each
interface). I will then publish the same internal server on both public
addresses. Sound reasonable?

Ok, riddle me this then. You can have an external, and internal and a dmz
all with thier own nic's. Isn't the DMZ considered external to the ISA? I
don't really know th eanswer, but do believe I've seen many postings of
people who've done multi-external nics. I presently only have one external,
but have four external IP's assignned to it, and all are doing as thier
supposed to do.
