Re: News groups rules

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance

Dear Charles,

Thank you for your update.

If you are using the Internet Explorer to visit the newsgroup instead of
Outlook Express, you only need to open the 80 port on the firewall.
(If you are using IE to visit the newsgroup, it means that you are visting
a web site instead of a NNTP Server. The newsgroup web site will sync with
the NNTP server and then display the thread on the web site).
So the rule to allow "NNTP, NNTP Server, nntp25, NNTPS and NNTPS Server"
does not meet your requirement.
You need to create a rule to allow the HTTP request to the newsgroup web
site on your ISA firewall.

Also if the issue persists even you enable the HTTP rule, please do send me
the configuration files that I had requested in the previous.
(Please do not send me the ISA 2000 configuration file that you had
exported, run the ISAInfo on your ISA 2004 server and collect the
configuration file on the 2004 server directly)

Have a nice day!

Sincerely,

Lee Li

    ... I'm using Microsoft's server now, but I only switched from my own regular ISP to Microsoft's NNTP server because, in the past, we had the occasional person asking a question here via the Microsoft Communities web site, and answers I posted from another NNTP server weren't getting correctly propagated to that web site, while Microsoft's NNTP server was treated more reliably. ...
