Re: ISA Is Driving Me Insane!

Why should we avoid PPPoE like plague? What problems will it cause? From
memory, isa does support PPPoE auto dial, so they should work together well.
I've read some of your replies in this group, but failed to find any
detailed explanation. Can you give a bit more detailed explanation for
newbies like me? Thanks.

You could start saving yourself a bunch of greif by ditching the ADSL
"router".

Plug the ADSL Modem directly into the External Nic of the ISA.
Make sure the Public IP# is static and the ISA's nic simply takes over the
IP Specs that the external side of the "router" used to have.
If the ISP does not have a static IP for you then get one from them.
You're paying them for a service, make them earn it, don't let them give
you any crap about it.
Also avoid PPPoE like the Plague,...PPPoE is for Home Users,...it is not
meant for commercial environments.

I have been trying to solve this issue for ages now and I am failing
miserably, its driving me insane. One minute I have it working and I
make a change for something else and it breaks again!

Here is my problem.

I have an ISA server configured in a 3 legged configuration so I have
an external NIC which plugs into a ADSL Router, a perimeter network and
my internal network. All network segments have a private address range
and the router does my natting. I am trying to get all my published
servers on the perimeter network.

So far I have OWA and EAS working via a web publishing rule, I publish
the Front-End server in the perimeter network. However I cannot seem to
get my server publishing rule working which publishes the front end
server for SMTP.

I have an access rule which allows SMTP traffic from the perimeter
network into the internal network and a rule which lets SMTP traffic
from the external network into the perimeter. However whatever I try I
still see SMTP traffic getting denied by the default rule.

I thought I solved this earlier on by adding some network rules, but
since I don't really understand exactly what I did I am back to square
one.

Can someone please help me out here!

Thanks

AJ
