A1: If you use the Add/Remove programs wizard and choose "Change" for the ISA 
entry, you can change the ISA operating mode between Firewall, Integrated and 
Cache all day long and not lose any (applicable) settings.  "Applicable" means 
that if you remove firewall functionality, all your server publishing and 
packet filtering settings go <poof>.

A2: if you un/reinstall standalone ISA, then yes; all your settings go <poof>.  
Whether you lose Array settings is determined by whether or not there are any 
server in the array.  

There is a script that will save your settings to a script that will re-import 
them to your new installation.  It's not written by me, but I've used it a time 
or two and it works fairly well.  It's not perfect, but it hasn't choked my ISA 
yet.

Oh, look; it's attached...

  A quick easy question, I think I know what the answer will be but I don't 
like it so I'm hoping I'm wrong.

  here goes, I want to re-install so I can add the download cache. It seems to 
be the only way to do this.

  If I reinstall will it change all my settings back to defaults...?
  If it does , can I restore from my firewall only backup ?



  What I think .. first question ... yes
                       second ..... no

  Anyone know for sure ?

  Thanks in advance

  Mark
