http://www.ISAserver.org One could do it but I wouldn't recommend it to my clients because of the problem with the server boot up order. If for some reason you need to reboot the main SBS server you first would have to shutdown the isa-only SBS server, reboot the main SBS, then once it's up bring up the isa-only SBS server. Given the frequency of updates these days I would find this more annoying than the extra cost.

In that way you can use the second SBS machine as your ISA Server? That would be less expensive than a Windows 2000 and ISA Server Standard Edition license. Thanks!

I use this all the time when I'm installing a new SBS server into an old SBS environment. I boot up the server I want to be the "real" SBS server, then I boot up the one I want to be the member server and they behave. However, if the old SBS server gets booted up first or it doesn't detect another domain controller it will take up the task. As a long term solution this could get to be annoying.
