Hi Sol
Run WU first. Then Do SP1 including ISA 2004. You do not need to Install ISA
2000 first. See

for Ideal Network setup and How to install SP1

Do not use 3 NICs on SBS

I have recently installed SBS 2003 Premium and have some basic questions
regarding service packs/updates and firewall/router configs. I have done
some searching through Google and on these discussion groups, but have not
had luck finding relevant answers to these questions:
So far I have successfully installed SBS 2003 without including the last
CD
(Premium apps ISA 2000 and SQL 2000). My first concern is the order which
I
should install upgrades/service packs. I haven't even run Windows update
yet
on my SBS 2003 fresh install. Should I run windows update first, then
install SP1 (including ISA 2004), or should I install ISA 2000 first, then
SP1 (including ISA 2004), then run Win update? Does it even matter?
As for the firewall/network config, I found articles on setting up using a
router, two nics, static IP, etc. which are very good. However, they
didn't
mention using three nics for establishing a DMZ. I would like to set up a
secure ftp server and web server. Do I need a three nic setup, or is two
nics OK with a SOHO router and a static IP? Also, we currently have
employees connecting to their machines using pcAnywhere which requires us
to
open ports on the SOHO router, would this model still apply, or is there a
better method to have multiple home users connect to their office
machines?
VPN maybe?
Thanks in advance for help with these fundamentals.
