hi bred
it pretty clear that if you want to use rpc over http to
work you have to implement isa server on the integrate
mode or firewall mode. cache mode does not support any
natting. so will be able to publish server like exchange.

and i would like u to give advice is that no matter how
small the company is security is security.so always
implemented on secured way.
cache mode support only 3 protocols
integrate mode support all the security implementations
with all the protocols that u want to allow or deny

firewall mode doesnot include caching mode. so that is u
have to implement to secure the system where if u have
publi servers to be secured behid the isa server.

i hope u found the anser

>I am completing a SBS 2003 server install, which the
network was previously SBS 2000. I am installing ISA
2000, and have a question about which mode I should
install it in. Firewall or Intergrated Mode. We have
always used Integrated mode in the past, basically out of
default, but the network I am setting this server up for
is small (probably under 10 computers, not much Internet
traffic (manufacturing)). My question is: What are the
effects or advan/disadvan for Firewall Mode versus
Integrated? I will need to publish a terminal server,
exchange 2003 (rpc over http), and all that other good SBS
2003 stuff. thanks.
