Ok Sorry I'm probably not stating this problem correctly web proxy service won't start until the internet connection has been made with the PPPoe. I have a web server behind SBS published using a web publishing destination set. All works well until I reboot the SBS server. When I run a port scan on the server port 25 is open running exchange however port 80 is closed and all other are stealth. The isa server is set to listen on port 80 for incoming requests. When I restart the web proxy service port now will listen for the incoming internet requests and isa will now forward them to the internal server. Every time the isa server is restarted the web proxy service as to be restarted to open port 80. Am I correct in thinking that on the isa box it self that iis should not be running on port 80 yes I have disabled socket pooling. I have been running SBS 2000 for a couple of years and I have has some intermittent issues around port 80 Thanks for any help you can provide Jim -----Original Message----- From: Jim Harrison [mailto:jim@xxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Thursday, September 23, 2004 12:35 PM To: [ISAserver.org Discussion List] Subject: [isalist] Re: web publishing with PPPoe http://www.ISAserver.org What causes the connection to be made in the first place? Until that happens, you'll delay the web proxy service. If it doesn't connect until some internal client makes a web proxy request, you'll have yourself a deadlock between requirements and reality since the web proxy can't respond to the request because it isn't started.

Is this because the web proxy service is started before the pppoe connected is made assigning the ipaddress? Is there a way to delay the web proxy service from starting util after the pppoe is connected??? ------------------------------------------------------ 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: jim@xxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe visit http://www.webelists.com/cgi/lyris.pl?enter=isalist Report abuse to listadmin@xxxxxxxxxxxxx ------------------------------------------------------ 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: jmay@xxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe visit http://www.webelists.com/cgi/lyris.pl?enter=isalist Report abuse to listadmin@xxxxxxxxxxxxx
