hiya all ..

i noticed that when you have a clean install of windows 2003 then install sp2 and after that install ISA 2006 , ISA gives you problems with smtp telnet etc etc. from internal network to outside..

so i tried a clean isntall of 2003 with sp1 then install isa 2006 and all worked like a charm
then installed SP2 for 2003 and it kept working without a problem .. might be some files that get fixed in SP1 and they forgot to put it in SP2 ??

maybe this helps a few peeps resolving other issues..

Apprently ISA was blocking WINS resolution… which is the secondary method for GSS. This resolves my client access issues at least! why on earth would it do this? surely this config is resolved at the dcpromo stage - completely confused.

Right apparently ISA does not like multicast (according to symantec) from what ive seen so far i would have to agree with them. ISA is taking things rather literally, when gss is using the multicast id 229.55.150.208 ISA is dropping the request as it seems to think its being spoofed. Its reason is the network adapter that is sending the packet 100.0.0.183 (our local range) cannot possibly reach that address…

I tried the RSS which wasnt an immediate fix. Have you any idea on ISA and mulicasting, according to the symantec guys i should try turning multicasting off in the console, i thought i had tried that but it still seems to be broadcasting from the clients over that multicast channel…

damn this is frustrating.

Hi tom,

Thanks for that this machine has broadcom netxtreme cards and when i checked the registry the setting for rss was at 1. I just need time to reboot to see what will happen.

Hi Michael,

Might be the RSS bug. Did you check that out yet?

I dont suppose any of you have come across issue with Ghost Solution Suite with these new service packs?

Pre-sp2 (2003) install my GSS worked perfectly. Post install and no client can see the server and visa versa. I dont profess to be anything other than an ISA ‘Learner driver’ and this is driving me around the bend… There was nothing in the release notes that i could see that would suggest suddenly Ghost Solutions Suite would cease to work…

May be this is because after installation of ISA Server I applyed template “Egde Firewall” and it deleted rules created by se.tup routine.

I have the same problem after installation of ISA Server 2004 SE on win2003 SP1…
setup routine didn’t create the Domain Controllers computer set.
I see errors logged in System event log related to NETLOGON (ID 5783, 5719) and Kerberos (7) and GPOs are not applyed, but domain users can be authenticated when rule require authentication.
