The interesting thing is you're talking about a licensing, not a security
issue.
SBS2K is intended for those folks who can't afford to dedicate a server per
function (that's why it's called "Small Business Server").
There are always tradeoffs between security and functionality, and this is
one place where "bang for the buck" was highest on the list.

Subject: [isalist] Straw poll - separate ISA from SBS base
http://www.ISAserver.org
Hi All,
Just wanted to guage other users/MCSE's opinion of the security aspects
of running ISA along with the other components of Small Business Server
2000 on one machine?
Many of our client's understand enough to ask if the ISA machine should
be stand-alone, but Microsoft don't allow the ISA component to be
installed separately from the rest of SBS. Actually, we haven't tried,
but I assume it's the same as previous SBS 4.5/Proxy 2.0.
If Microsoft are taking security seriously, then perhaps they should let
the volume product be available for separate install if the client has a
spare minimum PC ready to run it.
Any thoughts? Can we get a petition going, or some wishlist emails into
Microsoft?
Regards,
Connor!
