Packet filters control what you can and can't do on the ISA machine.

Protocol rules define what you can and can't do on clients.

i.e. Make sure you have a protocol definition for the app you are trying to 
run, and make sure it is allowed in your protocol rule(s).

The firewall client is designed to provide a host in the LAT the ability to:
    1. negotiate connections not defined in "Protocol Definitions"
    2. authenticate to ISA
ISA firewall functionality depends on ISA's ability to isolate the Internet
from the LAT.  One NIC makes that impossible to accomplish.
If ISA is not installed on a W2K server with two NICs, no software on any
client is going to change ISA's functionality.
Installing the firewall client on the ISA server breaks the security model
and causes ISA to act erratically.

Essentially, spend the $25 and install a good 3COM NIC.  You'll be happier
for it.

Jim,

Is the Firewall Client also used to access WinSock apps i.e. WinSock Client?


If yes,  I guess once again, cannot be used unless one is using two NIC's in
the ISA Server, correct?

Regards,
André

Jim,

I guess installing the Firewall Client is pretty much a waste of time then,
huh?

André

No; you need two NICs and either Integrated or Firewall mode to use packet
filters.

Guys,

I'm using my ISA Servers on the internal network, [just one active NIC].  If
a situation arises where I have to create a Packet Filter, will it work?  Do
I have to have an active internal NIC and external NIC for Packet Filters to
work?

Regards,
André Bayliss
