Ara, What happens when your firewall fails? Do you lose your network? What are the error messages in the event viewer? I have been working on a Service called ISAReset, that will monitor the Microsoft Firewall and stop/start/kill/reboot to get it going again. This is much like the iisreset program that comes with Microsoft IIS server. -Wayne The ISAPI Dev Lurking on the ISA Admin List -----Original Message----- From: Ara [mailto:ara@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Friday, March 04, 2005 6:14 PM To: [ISAserver.org Discussion List] Subject: [isalist] firewall service stops http://www.ISAserver.org Hello Would someone confirm this with me please? Right after applying service pack I get firewall services failures, what I have done if removing download security and change the firewall service to run under local system account not nt authority. Then it worked. So the question is which account is right and what are the side effects coming out of it? By the way, I get so many web proxies filter failures and after service pack and client web browsing disconnection which this solved it for me Help is appreciated 2004 standard edition with service pack 1 ------------------------------------------------------ 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: wayne@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe visit http://www.webelists.com/cgi/lyris.pl?enter=isalist Report abuse to listadmin@xxxxxxxxxxxxx
