Hi John, Good question. I can't see how an "old fashioned" KVM could cause this kind of problem.

I am testing ISA Server in cache only mode. Everything seemed to be working fine until I conected to the server via a KVM switch. Now its telling me my web proxy services are 'unavailable' and I cannot run any reports. Could anybody please point me in the right direction as to why services suddenly become 'unavailable'. I'm only blaming the KVM because everything seemed fine beforehand.

To resolve the issue change the following regkey. Set it to match the current Windows 2000 FQDN for the server. HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Fpc\Arrays\{array guid}\Servers\{server guid}\msFPCFQDN = "server.domain.com". In this case: your fqdn (i.e. isa1.local.mccormackbaron.com) Also, double check the following keys to make sure they have the hostname. It should just say "server" not "server.domain.com" HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Fpc\Arrays\{array guid}\msFPCName = "server" In this case: your netbios name (i.e. isa1) HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Fpc\Arrays\{array guid}\Servers\{server guild}\msFPCName = "server" In this case: your netbios name (i.e. isa1) I hope this helps.. Remember to always export your config and reg keys before editing your registry.
