Setting up Socks 4 to run on ISA 2000 1

[djmach]

Hi All,

I'm having a problem getting Socks 4 to work with ISA 2000.
Is there a step-by-step guide that could help me set this up right?

thanks ahead of time for your help!

my socks4 was totally transparent. I installed ISA as a firewall (no web cache) and I was able to use socsk4 for stuff like mIRC but after installing the firewall client, socks4 became useless.

It sounds like I need to setup the ISA Firewall in order to get the socks4 to work. I was hoping I could make this work with the casheing/proxy part of the ISA server because this is for my home network and didn't want to put another server online to make this work.

Thanks for your help!!

you wanted to install a cache server for a homenetwork?

HJB417

I have a son who likes to play online games, and a daughter who like to download and play music or listen to online radio stations, my wife and mysalf are power user. Plus the software is bought by my company, and it's free for me.

I need a good proxy server, and casheing ability would be real nice. Plus I need a firewall if some kind. I was hoping to put all if the above on one server if there is a way to do this. From my understanding this can't be done using ISA2000 server.

This question is can the ISA server be set-up to use the proxy part and the firewall part of the ISA server?

Thanks ahead of time
Dan

If you mean can you run them both concurrently on one box, then the answer is yes. For more info than you may ever need on ISA, check out

I don't think the cache part is necessary. Firewall mode is good enough for home LANners.

also, run some security tests here to make sure your network [well, at lease the isa server] is secure and functioning.
