Thanks for the reply Steve.

I received a little more juice from the turnip:

"The wimbamedia client first tries to connect through UDP 5998 then TCP 5998 and works its way down to HTTP/TCP 443 and 80. If UDP 5998 is open, then it should find and use that. UDP is primary over TCP. These ports should be configured for outbound communication from your network to the Wimba server address."

Maybe I can get it to work by defining the custom protocol with primary UDP 5998 Send or Send Receive and secondary TCP 5998 Outbound.

If not a custom access rule, to what rule do I attach the custom protocol? Or is it automatically attached to the SBS Internet Access rule?

Assuming the Wimba application is secure-proxy-capable (ie you can put in credentials as well as proxy information) _or_ you have the ISA Firewall Client installed, then any protocol you create should be usable by the SBS Internet Access rule (it applies to all protocols, which means all _defined_ protocols, rather than literally all).
