Thanks Kevin. Wish I'd seen your post before I reinstalled
ISA as the previous poster suggested.:)

I hear you and I could re-install from scratch if you feel
strongly about this issue. Your point about better now
than later is one that was heavy on my mind.

I've looked at the results and see nothing alarming but
I'm not sure I'd recognize it if it bit me.

I wish I felt all that comfortable with the configuration
of ISA "out of the box" after the ConnectionsWizard had
run but I'm not and I'm having to do a lot of trusting at
present. Mainly, I just want to keep the bad guys out!
There will be no web site, no SMTP mail, no FTP, etc.
There will be RDW and OWA.

I'm about to put this server online in the role of the
primary internet gateway with intent to add users to its
domain over the next few days. Current network is Peer-To-
Peer with 15 users at present. Migration looms. :)

Your suggestions appreciated. Tomorrow is re-config day
and it really wouldn't be too time-consuming to reinstall
from scratch tomorrow. Later would be awful to
contemplate.

Regards,

Adam
