Hi all, I just installed the admin on tools (snap-in) on my laptop, had some time with it to get it in... Problem is now, when I try to connect it to the ISA server thru the lan it tells me I don't have the proper permissions. The ISA is standalone, and it's a small home network.No AD, no bells and whistles. DHCP and DNS on ISA for internal use only. I did create an account on the ISA box that is the same as I use to log into my laptop (win 2k pro), and I made sure that that account is an administrator, and it had the permissions to access ISA Management. No good. It still disallows connection. If I log into my laptop with the admin account (same password as ISA server box) I can connect to ISA server. Any ideas, or should I just live with it ? Thanks in advance, Mark
