ISA2004 on Small Business Server 2003



Hi all

An after hours questions really.

My SBS2003 server has dual NICs behind ADSL. Clients are XP SP2. The SBS
server runs DHCP. After hours, we fancy playing a bit of Battlefield 2.
However, the XP SP2 clients are unable to correctly view the Internet games.
We can see the game servers but can never connect. The game animation
behind the Multiplayer selection screen "freezes". If we move the clients
out of the SBS subnet directly on to the ADSL subnet (bypassing ISA), the
game works as expected.

My first go was to setup a "protocol" called BF2 with the port settings in
the back of the manual, but the descriptions in ISA was not clear to me. I
have deleted the settings for now for safety until I know how to setup ISA.

Can anyone advise how to configure SBS to allow the Battlefield game ports
through. Below is a copy from the manual. (The duplicates are in the
manual too)

Many thanks
