allow inbound RSS feed? - 8.Jan.2007 11:50:39 AM

we have an internal website that is supposed to connect to the Dilbert RSS feed and display the current date's "DailyDilbert" cartoon on the main page after users had logged in to the site.

Now that I've implemented ISA2004, that RSS feed does not display. I've tried creating an access rule to 'Allow all Outbound Traffic' from the web server to the RSS feed site, but to no avail. Nothing shows in my monitoring session, as if the server isn't even attempting to make the connection. This was working before ISA was put in place. I've also tried allowing all inbound connections from the RSS Feed site, but that doesn't work either.

I've seen various posts regarding this same issue, has anybody found a solution?

thanks, Andi

Make sure the RSS client machine is a SecureNAT client of the ISA Firewall.

HTH,

it is, the default gateway of the web server is pointing to the ISA box.

maybe it's because, since the IIS services are running under the system account, ISA is blocking the traffic due to lack of authentication? My access rule is set to allow for All Users. The request isn't even being blocked by the "Default Rule", I don't see it getting to the ISA server at all.
