OK, so there are two different domains, each on a different ISA Firewall
Network. Therefore, that brings Jim's concerns into play if you want to
create a trust between these networks.
 
So, if you want strong outbound access control with user/group outbound
authentication, you'll only have it for one of the domains, and the ISA
Firewall will be joined to that domain.
 
If you want strong authenticated outbound access control for only
HTTP/HTTPS/FTP(over Web proxy), then you can use RADIUS Proxy and RADIUS
servers. Have fun with that ;) (undocumented, but theoretically it
should work)
 
If your publishing OWA sites for both domain, that's totally no brainer
easy with LDAP authentication.
 
The ISA Firewall doesn't pre-auth RDP, so it doesn't matter.
 
For VPN, you get to learn about RADIUS and RADIUS Proxy and how to make
it work with the ISA firewall (undocumented, but theoretically should
work)

        The Domains are separate and do not need to talk to each other.

        No cross traffic between domains is necessary.

        Original question: 
        
        
        Scenario:
        Both domains are Windows 2003.
        Both domains have Exchange servers publishing OWA etc...
        Both domains have users requiring RDP and VPN access
        All users except admins are not allowed into opposing network

                Wait- you mean if the ISA is not a member of any domain,
that you can
                create LDAP Authentication Server sets to authenticate
to a "foreign"
                domain?  Doesn't that mean credentials will be passed in
the clear in
                that case??

                And we're not talking about cross-domain traffic
"crossing ISA
                boundaries" - this is just two different domains behind
ISA.

                That's not true either; ISA can use LDAP to authenticate
foreign domain
                accounts without being a member of either - that's
exactly why we added
                LDAP auth.
                It's the cross-ISA domain traffic that makes it nearly
impossible.
                IOW, if there exists any form of cross-domain trusted
traffic that
                crosses ISA boundaries, you will have problems.

                Not at all... it is only an "issue" if you need AD-based
authentication
                for both domains. If so, then you'll just need to create
a trust (one
                way will work just fine). What "cross-trust issues" are
you referring
                to?

                So.... All would agree that having two domains behind
ISA 2006
                creates enough complexity (for one who does not enjoy
cross-trust
                relationship between domains issues) for it to be
impractical?

                        Actually, it's both.
                        Domain traffic across ISA is a great reason to
increase your
                        illicit substance use.
                        Have a peek at the RPC-oriented fixes in ISA;
nearly all of them
                        have been driven by domain scenarios; some
because of RPC protocol
                        changes in the OS.

                        That's what I was going to say ;)

                        It's not "multiple domains behind ISA," it's the
way you want trust
                        to work within those "multiple domains behind
ISA."

                        If you don't have some sort of cross-trust
relationship between the
                        domains, only users within the domain that the
ISA server is a
                        member of can use rules that require user
authentication (including
                        certificates).

                                I would like to indulge the minds of ISA
List on the pitfalls of
                                having
                                two separate networks/domains behind one
ISA 2006 firewall.

                                The main question: How does
authentication in ISA 2006 work with two
                                domains?

                                Any thoughts would be greatly
appreciated - I should probably
                                rephrase
                                this ;-)

                                Scenario:
                                Both domains are Windows 2003.
                                Both domains have Exchange servers
publishing OWA etc...
                                Both domains have users requiring RDP
and VPN access All users except
                                admins are not allowed into opposing
network
