Hi Tom,
That's true, but we're going to address that in the next revision.
It'll be an addition to the UI and when clicked, the user's Windows and ISA
license(s) will be revoked.

Hi Jim,
Unfortunately, ISA has no Open Port [patent refused] button. :)

1. there is no other "firewall" on the market that can differentiate
between real RPC publishing and Blaster attacks. Period (yes, I'm gonna
toot that horn till my lips fall off).
2. there is no other "firewall" or proxy on the market that has a single
clue as to how to support OWA, OMA, ActiveSync or SPS.
3. I triple-dog-dare you to find another firewall or proxy product where
you have not just one, but six (go ahead; count 'em!) different
communities to turn to for real support; not just the "you must be an
expert to ride this ride" mentality.
Does that help?

Dear ISA list
I helped install and configure Backoffice 2000 for our small (70 user)
company. I have always been part time but the configuration and dealings
with ISA have always mine. We now have a new System Administrator who is
having trouble getting his head round ISA and wants to ditch it and buy
a hardware firewall. I am stuck here. I need some help with the running
of the firewall but have never had to use anything other than ISA. If he
gets the hardware box then that is fine - its his!!! However I am a
concerned that the flexibility and power of ISA will be missed. For
instance in publishing OWA I know that that https requests to our IP
address will be dropped unless they are formed properly. This seems like
good security to me. We are now thinking about publishing some
sharepoint services as well (more questions about this could well
follow!!!!) and I think this would be easier and more locked down with
ISA..
So the big question - ISA or a hardware firewall - for or against.
Remember - vote for and I keep the hassle and, against and it goes
elsewhere!
But seriously, we would like some serious advice on why one should use
ISA or a hardware firewall.
Many thanks
