ISA doesn't support split connections like this.

Hello all,

Firstly, let me commend you on your site - wonderful source of solid info!
Great Job!

Now, on to the Q-of-the-day...

We are trying to set up a home lab using W2k server and ISA.  Our problem
lies in the Internet connection.  Here in New Brunswick in certain areas we
have only the use of Data Xcellerators (Scientific Atlanta) which provide
downstream connection via local cable company and upstream requests use a
phone modem integrated into the Xcellerator.  Proprietary software is used
to
connect us to the ISP (similar to DUN) and the connection must be intitiated
manually or can be set to dial when the computer starts (please keep in mind
this device contains the phone modem and the dialing is initiated over
Ethernet with their software).  The connection to the Xcellerator from the
server is Ethernet, from the Xcellerator to the ISP is both Coax (down) and
Phone (up).  Of course, the ISP supplies a DHCP address when we connect.

How do we configure our server properly?  We would like AD installed on this
machine (so therefore, DNS) and DHCP for internal clients (not critical) but
are unsure how to configure ISA with no static external IP address.  So far
we see plenty of errors in Event Logs because things won't work well without
having an external IP during startup.

Can you assist?

Thanks,
Paul Clement, MCSE
