Rob, Check your DNS settings to make sure host names are still resolving. The items under Connectivity are undefined by default. This allows you to configure the ISA Server to monitor dependent servers/services and execute alerts accordingly should a drop in connectivity with the specified server/service occur.

The only thing that's changed with it in a long while is that this morning around 8:15 I installed the Acronis TrueImage 8.0 software on the ISA server, in order to take an image of the ISA server. It didn't seem to cause any trouble. Then around 11:30 we started having users report various problems: * My remote users can no longer connect to our VPN server (ISA passes the PPTP packets to a separate VPN server). * Some people can't connect to our Exchange server, both internal and remote users. * RDP no longer works, neither internally nor externally. * Logon screen takes a long time to appear on clients. * Logging on locally to the ISA server takes very long No special errors on the server. I uninstalled the Acronis software. When I monitor VPN connection attempts, ISA doesn't show any errors. The client tries to connect, then things time out. The only thing odd I've noticed (and I don't really know if it's odd, since I don't use the dashboard at all), is that under "Connectivity" all the things there are labeled as "Not configured." Those "things" include: * Active Directory * DHCP * DNS * Others * Published Servers * Web (Internet) Is that normal? Anyone know what the heck might be going on? And how I might be able to troubleshoot it? Thanks, Rob -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Rob Moore Network Manager 215-241-7870 Help Desk: 800-500-AFSC
