Hi Tom As a graduate of the "ISA Server & Beyond" I have never liked the idea of anonymous rules & thus have never had any. I have however always had the checkbox selected as I thought it provided a nice "failsafe" for anything that I maybe missed along the way... at least then users trying to duck the system will always be caught out... Anyway, I've removed the checkbox and my SNat clients are now working, so thanks once again.

I never enable that checkbox on the outgonig listener. Strange and unexplained things happen when you do so.

Are you telling me that by enabling the "Ask unauthenticated users for identification" option in the Outgoing WEB Requests I am effectively denying all my SNat clients from HTTP-based web access?? Or is it only denying my SNat clients because I don't have an associated Anonymous Protocol/S&C rule? Well, I have disabled the above setting and it does now work, BUT, by doing so, have I opened up any luvverly little holes in my ISA, or will the fact that all my Protocol/S&C rules require user authentication (or IP Address Auth for SNat clients) prevent any anonymous access through my ISA?

This will force auth for all anonymous web connections regardless of the rules in place.

So I tell myself: "Self, it's no problem, simply change the default gateway of the *nix servers to the ISA's internal NIC, create a new Client Address Set for the relevant IP Addresses of the *nix servers and then create a new Protocol and Site&Content rule allowing the specific Client Address Set through..." Well, I can tell you that "self" is having some trouble with this and was wondering if there was anything simple I was missing. To my knowledge the above is all I need to do, but if someone can tell me any other tricks that need to be done on the *nix servers regarding authentication, or some other fancy ISA authentication modules I need to activate, I would really appreciate it.
