Hello Irving.

If you check out this link and look at the doc, it tells you the ports,
but I have tried them.  I am going to try other things to see if can get
it to work.

The tests that I ran where with clients local to my LAN and WAN...when I
tried with someone truly outside I got the same error. The key here is
to
determain what port MSN uses for file transfer. I will find this out and
our
live will be that much better. As soon as I find out i will email
you...is
your email christian.villeneuve@xxxxxxxxxxx? If you find it out...let me
know...choro007@xxxxxxxxxxx

If I try to send a file from behind the ISA server, I eventually get
this

"We could not send this file because the connection is blocked. Please
contact your network administrator or Internet service provider; they
may be able to enable file transfers."

But I created the protocol rule using the MSN Messenger default protocol
rule, just changed it from outbound to inbound.

I have the MSN, MSN Messenger default rules enabled and the one I
created.

Thanks,

chris

Do you get an error when you try to send a file...? If so, what is it...

Hello Irving

I tried defining a protocol rule the same as one of the MSN defaults
except using incoming, and created a protocol rule, but I still can't
send a file or receive a file.

My machine is set up as a  SecureNAT Client and a Firewall Client.

Is there something I am missing maybe?

Thanks Irving

what i did...
In the connections of MSN set it to SOCKS 4 (Server_Name ... port 1080)
In the Protocal Defs you will find by default protocals for MSN but,
only
going out. Make one for incomming as well.
The rules are applied in this order:
Protocal Rules
Site & Content Rules
IP Packet Filters
etc.
I only deal with Protocal Rules and Site & Content Rules. My IP Packet
Filters are ALL open.
Make sure you have the protocals that MSN uses defined ... and in Site &
Content Rules I gave my machine access. The only problem I ran into
giving
MSN access thru SOCKS is when I had the option to "ask unathenticaed
users
for identification" checked in the "Incoming Web Request" tab in the
properties of my ISA Server. If you make your machine a SecureNAT ...
you
will run into fewer problems. But, for administrative purposes ... i try
not
to setup any of my clients up as SecureNAT...because i won't be able to
restrict by Username or Group ... i would have to restrict by IP

You have MSN messenger connection using Socks 4?

Which rules did you create?

Thanks,

Chris

MSN Messenger will work thru ISA. I use it now. I'm able to send files
and
messeges ... never tried Video or Voice. It works with SOCKS ... but,
because of other software I configured my machine as a SecureNAT. You do
have to make sure your rules allow the traffic.

Hello George.

To my knowledge MSN Messenger won't work behind the ISA server.
I've checked into this myself and found in the help file for MSN
Messenger that it won't work behind a firewall.

You can set up Netmeeting though using the H.323 Gatekeeper.  Look in
the Learning Zone for Tom's tutorial.

Take care,

Chris

I have followed
https://premier.microsoft.com/premier/library/default.aspx?path=/premier
/kb/en-us/Q278/8/87.ASP?KBID=Q278887


I can send video and transfer files with users behind the ISA Server but
I
can't with user's out side the ISA Server.  MSN Chat works fine through
the firewall to users on the internet.  Just can't get Video/Voice or
file
transfers to work.

Has anyone had any success with this?

Thanks, George
