The version I'm running creates a protocol rule that denies udp send
receive ports 8998, and 995-999.

Hi Jeff,

I have to say that I don't know what the SoBig script does :-)  But I'm
sure if it blocks TCP 135, then it will create an explicit packet filter
to do so.

Even if the Sobig script did some hidden blocking, the blocked
connection attempts would appear in the NetMon trace.

HTH,
Tom

Does the sobig script for ISA block the RPC port 135 traffic?
I know it doesn't directly, but are there any secondary connections
needed? But I have tried it with it turned off as well...

Hi Jeff,

The procedure of publishing secure Exchange RPC is very quick an easy,
so from the publishing end, the only things that might be whack might
be:

1. The Exchange Server is not a SecureNAT client
2. The publishing rule is disabled
3. A packet filter is blocking the rule from working
4. Exchange is installed on the firewall and the socket is listening on
all interface (this problem CAN'T be fixed without disabling NetBT, and
Exchange really doesn't like that too much)

The real problem with Secure Exchange RPC publishing is name resolution.
Can you run NetMon on the external interface and see if the incoming TCP
135 connections are making it to the firewall?

Thanks!
Tom

Here I am again....

My published RPC Exchange 2000 server through ISA still doesn't work.
Worked fine till the worm crap started happening. Then ISPs started
blocking port 135 and or RPC, but since then they assure me they have
stopped. I have had Earthlink field technicians work with me on our
setup, ours and their routers, dsu/csu, etc. They dug down deep and say
that there is no blocking going on.

Yet it doesn't work any more for us.
Does anyone know if any of the Microsoft patches actually broke this
functionality?

Tom, I have been going through your deployment kits, but am a little
confused. Is it still possible to do the RPC publishing with ISA server
on Win 2000 server, and Exchange 2000 on Win 2000 server? Without any
additional ssl, certificates, vpn, rpc over http, etc.

It used to work, I just want it back.

Is there any configuration lists or settings you need me to send to help
identify the problem. Thanks
