Bad form, Smee.

List rule #1 - Don't be a jerk
List rule #2 - Don't mail anyone directly unless they ask you to.

You need to read the ISA help, and the articles on www.isaserver.org.
There is much about ISA that you need to understand.

http://www.ISAserver.org 
thanks for your reply.
 
What i understood is, no need to install DNS server on the ISA, because
i do not have external users they will access from internet and use my
DNS server to access the computers on my LAN. 
 i have already Internal DNS on my Network, installed on the Domain
Controller it self. 
And All the users they register them self in the DNS Locally here  in my
network.
 
 
is that correct ?
 
so in this case, No need at all to install the DNS on the ISA, i need
only to let the users to only USE my Internal DNS , and if the query
could not resolve, the DNS which is internal , well send the query to
the - ISP DNS - Forwarder, and well get the reply from ISP DNS, and then
will give it back to the users.
 
Also, i have here my Exchange server 2003, and installed on it GFI POP3
downloader, because i am using POP3 to collect my E-mails from the Host
company - Not the ISP- which is located in USA, - XO.COM.
 
in the past, we used to put in the SMTP, the IP Address of my SMTP
server which has been given by the ISP.
 
and the POP3, we used to put the MX record for my domain which is hosted
in USA.
====================================================================
Second question :-
 
so this is what i want to do, so can you please guide me to the steps ,
what Protocol rule should i open for outgoing trffic , - DNS, SMTP,
POP3, HTTP. and what Protocol rule should closed ?
======================================================================
third questions :-
 
 No need at all to have any Packet filter, or application Filter,
because here is in my situation, i do not have any users from outside,
connect to the isa, and then access any thing on my Internal Network,
that is why we do not need at all to configure any thing on Packet
filter or Application Filter, and i am going only to work with the
Protocol Rule , is that correct , or not ?
======================================================================

        Those are two separate questions.
        You need to install DNS on ISA *or* you need to point the
internal
        clients to the ISP DNS server.

        Two problems with this scenario:
        1 - you don't own the 90.0.0/24 netblock - you should not be
        using it
        for your internal network. Instead, use something from the
        RFC-1918
        set:
        10/8
        169.254/16
        172.16/12
        192.168/16
        
        2 - Unlike WinProxy, ISA will *not* perform "DNS proxy", so
        installing
        DNS on the ISA will be required. Just *don't* make this DNS
        server
        available from the Internet (no "allow all" rules)

        http://www.ISAserver.org 
        Dear all, 
        
        My network consist of the follwoing enviroment - with WinProxy
        as
        Firewall- :-
        
        
        1. Domain Controller,with DNS on it ,, with the following
        Settings
        on the IP :-
        IP:- 90.0.0.10
        SM: 255.255.255.0
        GW: 90.0.0.20 --------------------------> this is the internal
        IP of
        WinProxy Interface.
        DNS: 90.0.0.10 --------------------------> it register it self
        in the
        current DNS - internal DNS-
        
        
        
        2. 30 users, Windows XP-Pro, SP2 on it and they configured to
        register
        there self in the DNS which is ( 90.0.0.10 ), and GW which is (
        90.0.0.20), i mean all the users have this DNS ( 90.0.0.10), and
        have
        this Default Gateway ( 90.0.0.20). 
        
        
        3. The internal DNS server configured to forward all the quires
        to the
        internal IP-Address of WinProxy which is ( 90.0.0.20), inorder
        to be
        able to browse internet names and able to reslove the external
        domains
        as well. 
        
        4. One Firewall which is WinProxy, not under our doamin, which
        have 2
        NIC with the following informations:-
        
        First Nic on WinProxy:-
        ===================
        IP : 90.0.0.20
        SM : 255.255.255.0
        GW : N/A
        DNS : N/A
        
        Second Nic on WinProxy which is connected to Router, and then
        the router
        connect to VSAT:-
        ================================ 
        IP : 213.255.237.106 
        SM : 255.255.255.248
        GW : 213.255.237.105
        DNS : 213.255.237.8
        213.255.237.9
        
        
        and we are behind firewall, even we configure the Outlook to use
        the IP-
        Address of the internal WinProxy interface as POP3 & SMTP.
        
        and on the WinProxy, we configured the SMTP& POP3 with the real
        IP-Address.
        
        
=====================================================================
        Now we are going to install ISA server 2000.
        
        i want to know if this steps which i am going to do is correct
        or not .
        
        1. i will bring new server for ISA, with 2 Nic.
        2. install Win Server on it .
        3. Give the internal interface of the ISA this IP ( 90.0.0.10),
        and this
        DNS ( 90.0.0.10), without Gateway on it .
        4. install DNS server on ISA.
        5.Configure the DNS to lisiten only on the Internal Interface -
        not
        external.
        6.Create the Forward lookup Zone and Reverse Lookup Zone.
        7.Make the Local DNS forward the query to the external DNS of
        the ISP.
        
        8. install the domain controller on the other machine and let it
        to
        register it self on the Internal IP of ISA. and put the gateway
        also for
        that .
        
        9. let all the user register them self in the the current DNS.
        10. Configure the users normally.
        11. make sure that the server & the Clients able to browse and
        see the
        internt.
        
        
=================================================================
        
        second Part , install the DNS server on the ISA server it self
        and we
        will start working on it .
        
        So my question is :-
        1. is there any thing wrong in this configuration, from
        installing DNS
        server on the ISA server and let all the users register them
        self in the
        DNS which is located on the ISA, and configured the ISA server
        to
        forward the quires to the external DNS of the ISP ? if there is
        any
        Problem, do you receommend any other solution . ?
        
        2. After i install on each client the Firewall Client software
        which is
        come from ISA server , is there any traffic i should allow for
        the
        inbound / outbound for the DNS to go from ISA server to the
        external DNS
        server of the ISP, so is there any Protocol Rule or Packet
        filter should
        i do it , in order to let the traffic go out from my ISA server
        to the
        external DNS, and to inter from the external DNS to my ISA
        server ?
        
        Please Help in this situation , as soon as possible .
        
        
        -- 
        thanks
