Hi Greg Dr Tom has some very good articles on the isaserver.org website at www.isaserver.org. Also a good idea is to read the help files on the isa cd. What happens if you put the ip address of the exchnage server in the mail account properties instead of the fqdn. Most probably user error tho' Steve -----Original Message----- From: Greg Mulholland [mailto:gmulholland@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Tuesday, November 25, 2003 8:38 AM To: Isa Weblist Subject: [isalist] Firewall client killing connection http://www.ISAserver.org Hey guys I would like any hands on this if you could. Having a slight "problem" here, I lose connection to my exchange server when I install the firewall client. Net access, trillian, porn, all still work but my outlook client, looks at me as if to say "what the hell do you want me to do". Actually It just says, "trying to connect" in the little status down the bottom. I'm trying a few things but wondering if anyone has noticed this happen before.
