Rob,
Since the VPN networks are behind the ISA firewall (on their ISA
firewall's Internal network), then by putting a router in between the
ISA firewall and all the networks allows you to configure the routing
table on the ISA firewall and provide the appropriate gateway address
that routes back to those networks. I've done it and it works.

Would a router help? With ISA 2000, simply having all the static routes
defined on that box was enough. Having them defined on the ISA 2004 box
was not enough--it seems that the ISA 2004 server intercepts traffic
headed for these remote subnets, even though they're defined as part of
the internal network. Would a router stop the traffic destined for the
remote subnets from going to the ISA 2004 box at all? I guess I'd put
the router right in front of the ISA 2004 box? (I told you I've never
configured a router before.)

Hi Rob,
There MUST be a better solution than that. Isn't there a router on the
premises that can take care of this?

Hello everyone--
I've sent the list several emails on the network-within-a-network issue,
and corresponded with Tom Shinder both on and off the list on this
topic. I've been tearing my hair out over it for several weeks now. It
finally occurred to me that I could probably get this solved fairly
quickly by calling Microsoft PSS, which is what I did this morning. It
was a fairly cheap route to get this problem solved, and now I can
actually start putting ISA 2004 into production!
Anyway, I think there are many of you out there with network
configurations similar to what I've got. So I'm guessing some of you
might like to hear about the solution. Here it is. I have an internal
172.17.x.x network. I also have roughly 35 192.168.x.x networks that are
all physically remote, but network-wise they are internal: they all go
through a third party firewall/VPN device to connect to the home
network. So here at the home site, we have had two firewalls: ISA 2000
and IPCop (the third party device). With the addition of static routes
on the ISA 2000 server pointing to the IPCop firewall, everything worked
fine on ISA 2000. It didn't work so well with ISA 2004--communications
between the remote subnets and the home office subnet were quirky at
best, non-existent at worst. The solution was quite simple: every server
in the 172.17.x.x subnet needs to have persistent static routes added
for all the 35 remote subnets, all the 172.17.x.x workstations that need
to communicate with the remote subnets also need these same persistent
static routes, and for good measure I added a static route to each of
the remote servers to tell them how to get to the 172.17.x.x subnet.
It's been a few hours and all my communication woes are solved, at least
for now!
Keeping my fingers crossed,
Rob
