                Hi Glenn,
                 
                So PSS wasn't about to solve your VPN gateway to gateway
issue? Didn't they give you to rollup hotfix that solved the dreaded DNS
publishing issue? 
                 
                Thanks!
                Tom

                Jim - in fact I have posted many issues and have
received many valued responses, even from you, in fact when I opened my
Microsoft support ticket, I asked the 2nd level support engineer about
ISA Discussion Group in reference to Tom and yourself,

                he told me many Microsoft ISA support engineers use this
same forum and know about you, so believe me, it is not like I was
coming in cold, My evaluation is accurate based on my experience and the
way I NEEDED to use ISA. As for a total enterprise solution, Most
Enterprise firewall solutions roll in VPN support, either client VPN or
firewall to firewall, like my old Axent Raptor firewall which is 6 years
old, so this is not a new idea, Microsoft choose to use RRAS because it
already existed in earlier releases of Server operating systems, Yes, it
is true RRAS is not necessary for ISA to function as a Firewall, Web
Proxy, but to complete the total Enterprise requirements it is if you
wish to connect Branch offices, and I am saying that I had reliability
issues with RRAS, it simply was not stable, the times I had to reboot my
ISA server RRAS would take minutes to complete the connection and
sometimes not at all, I reboot Raptor and I can start pinging remote
hosts

                on the other side of the world even before the OS allows
you to login, so believe me there is a huge difference. I am not arguing
the case to scrap ISA, if I did I am sure I would be flamed by Microsoft
supporters. As far as waking up Dorothy, I guess she is already walking
the streets, because my 6 year old Axent Raptor firewall functions as my
Firewall, Global Branch Office VPN and DMZ server, everything needed to
run the operations here in my office, so I guess I do have my bag of
chips Jim.
