tshinder -> Discussion on Installing ISA Server on Win2003 (19.May2003 6:11:00 PM)

This thread is for discussing the article on how to install ISA Server on Win2003 over at XXX.

Thanks!
Tom

I'm surprised you say that Windows 2003 is more stable with ISA Server. I've got my configuration rock solid on Windows 2000 and have followed your recommendation for hardening it and don't see any compelling reason for upgrading the OS.

Having said that you know I'm going to do it - it's just too much fun not too.



blubomber -> RE: Discussion on Installing ISA Server on Win2003 (19.May2003 11:25:00 PM)

I am getting ready to start evaluating ISA 2000 running on windows 2003. This is my first experience with ISA and i figured i might as well try it on windows 2003. I had not considered using win2k3 until i read the article here. I will keep you all informed as to my progress.



jsuboh -> RE: Discussion on Installing ISA Server on Win2003 (20.May2003 1:17:00 AM)

What is your opinion in running an upgrade instead of a clean install(yeah I know it would be better to do a clean install)? Also would a backup of my ISA settings work from W2k on a W2k3 install? Just some questions I have.

Thanks

choppol -> RE: Discussion on Installing ISA Server on Win2003 (20.May2003 1:36:00 AM)

I think clean install would be cleaner in a sense that everything is new and not replace by updates.

I prefer to do clean install because then when you get a blue screen it would not be much of a problem by rebuild but when upgrade alot of the configuration is forgotten and have to do everything again (not very fun in a production environment).

Hi I have just upgraded my ISA box to W2k3. I did a straight upgrade at first and it worked fine, no problems at all just upgraded and run.
But I wanted to change some partition sizes and decided to do it again with a clean install. Once again no problems at all, although when installing you get compatability errors and in event viewer but, during install you will get prompted to install Service Pack 1 once completed. (Which everyone does as a matter of course anyway).
At this point I don't know if it is any more stable that Y2K as I had no problems with Y2K once I got my head around ISA anyway. But W2k3 seems to have a lot of new features in the OS.
Good luck all donig I hope it is smooth for you as was for me!



jvanepps -> RE: Discussion on Installing ISA Server on Win2003 (28.May2003 1:59:00 AM)

I had a rock solid install on windows 2000 and did a clean install of the OS, and now I can't get to anything. I had RDP published, which I can't get to my server. I can't connect to VPN through the box anymore, I have a published OWA which I can not get to. I tried, just to see I created a packet filter giving access to everything on my internal network and I can not even access anything that way, anyone have any ideas? [Confused]



jvanepps -> RE: Discussion on Installing ISA Server on Win2003 (28.May2003 2:04:00 AM)

Another thing is I get my event log flooded with events 14120 which is about a conflict in my LAT table, which I didn't get this before I put 2003 on the box. Anything someone can help me with? [Frown]



jvanepps -> RE: Discussion on Installing ISA Server on Win2003 (28.May2003 9:49:00 AM)

Problem solved. My assistant had tied a gateway address on the internal nic, this caused my problem. [Smile]



tshinder -> RE: Discussion on Installing ISA Server on Win2003 (29.May2003 3:14:00 PM)

Hi Jve,

That will certainly cause problems. Good to hear you got it working!

Thanks for the followup.

Tom



Guest -> RE: Discussion on Installing ISA Server on Win2003 (27.Jul.2003 8:49:00 PM)

If find that ISA is much more stable on Windows 2003 but did anyone yet find out how to disable the socketpooling feature for smtp / ftp etc on iis 6? [Eek!] I'd like to use a smtp relay server on my isa box. [Frown]

Thanks



Jason Jones -> RE: Discussion on Installing ISA Server on Win2003 (28.Jul.2003 10:40:00 AM)

IIS 6.0 and socket pooling...

reinier -> RE: Discussion on Installing ISA Server on Win2003 (28.Jul.2003 10:50:00 AM)

Thanks Jason but I found that one allready. It only describes how to disable it for the web services (w3svc). I'd like to know how to do it for SMTP. It was: "mdutil set -path smtpsvc/1 -value 1 -dtype 1 -prop 1029 -attrib 1" in windows 2000, anyone tried this on Windows 2003? [Razz]

Thanks,
ReinHier.

ISA SERVER 2000 DOES NOT INSTALL IN UNATTENDED MODE UNDER WINDOWS SERVER 2003!

When I attempt to run ISA Servers setup.exe with the /U switch, I receive the following message box:
______________________________________________
Setup Error 688

A command line option has been used, which is valid only in Maintenance mode.
______________________________________________

Subsequent to that incredibly enlightening info, I receive this message next:

______________________________________________
Setup Error 723

Setup was unable to read configuration information from the first section of the setup file:
C:\~MSSETUP.T\~msstfqf.t\setup.stf
______________________________________________

I am attempting to run the installation from the CD ROM drive and have placed the MsISAund.ini on C:\ .

Any help would be appreciated!



sbaitsell -> RE: Discussion on Installing ISA Server on Win2003 (16.Sep.2003 8:44:00 PM)

I have ISA 2000 set up on a Windows 2003 Server. I followed through your setup exactly. The server only runs ISA. My clients in the same building can connect to the internet but any client outside of the building cannot get to the internet. The other buildings are on my LAT table and my previous ISA server on Windows 2000 Server everyone can get out fine. As far as I can see all my configurations are the same. Any suggestions?

Hi Tony,

I've never run ISA in unattended mode on Windows 2003. Are you OEM?

Thanks!
Tom



applegate -> RE: Discussion on Installing ISA Server on Win2003 (5.Oct.2003 2:34:00 AM)

Anyone know how to install the trial version on 2003?? The instructions on MS's web site say it is not possible. How can I test it if the trial version won't run on 2003?
Thanks,
Paul



tshinder -> RE: Discussion on Installing ISA Server on Win2003 (5.Oct.2003 10:31:00 AM)

Hi Paul,

That's true. You can't install SP1 on the trial version, and you need SP1 to install on Win2003. I check and see if they're considering a fix for this problem.

thanks!
Tom

Thanks. I am running SBS 2003 RC, and wanted to test ISA as well, but all we have is the trial version [Frown]

IDHW -> RE: Discussion on Installing ISA Server on Win2003 (6.Nov.2003 4:30:00 PM)

I am considering setting up an array that would consist of two Win2003 servers with ISA (integrated mode) The only thin on the servers will be ISA. Any thought or ideas?
