Hi Wayne, The browser on the ISA firewall isn't on a "side", its on the local host network. In general, actually always, you should not use the browser on the firewall. I only use browsers on PIX and Netscreens :) You need to create an Access Rule allowing the connection from the Local Host Network.

When I open a browser on my ISA Server (2 NICs - Edge Firewall) what side of the network is the browser on? Internal or External? I do not have a proxy configured in my browser settings. I assume the answer would matter how I set-up my networks, so is the local browser considered 127.0.0.1? I am getting this really weird scenario where if I go to www.microsoft.com <http://www.microsoft.com/> I can see the web site (from the browser on the ISA Server), however if I go to www.wired.com <http://www.wired.com/> I get this: Error Code: 403 Forbidden. The ISA Server denied the specified Uniform Resource Locator (URL). (12202) I have one access rule, i.e. All Access, Allow, All Users, Anytime, All Networks (Local Host), External, All Protocols, just sort of wide open. -Wayne The ISAPI Dev Lurking on the ISA Admin List ------------------------------------------------------ List Archives: http://www.webelists.com/cgi/lyris.pl?enter=isalist ISA Server Newsletter: http://www.isaserver.org/pages/newsletter.asp ISA Server FAQ: http://www.isaserver.org/pages/larticle.asp?type=FAQ ------------------------------------------------------ Other Internet Software Marketing Sites: World of Windows Networking: http://www.windowsnetworking.com Leading Network Software Directory: http://www.serverfiles.com No.1 Exchange Server Resource Site: http://www.msexchange.org Windows Security Resource Site: http://www.windowsecurity.com/ Network Security Library: http://www.secinf.net/ Windows 2000/NT Fax Solutions: http://www.ntfaxfaq.com ------------------------------------------------------ You are currently subscribed to this ISAserver.org Discussion List as: tshinder@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe visit http://www.webelists.com/cgi/lyris.pl?enter=isalist Report abuse to listadmin@xxxxxxxxxxxxx
