IIS and ISA to publish my Intranet

[redwatty]

I am going out of my mind. I have inherited a system with a busted ASP intranet. I mananged to get it back on line on my local machine when when I have tried to publish it for general internal use I have come across some intersting obsticles.

Here's my setup. IIS5 and ISA are running on the same server which also happens to be the DNS server. I have created the intranet site in IIS with the content on the local C:\ Drive.

Firstly do I need to go through the process of specifying destinations sets and web publishing rules in ISA if I don't want the site accessable from external sources?

If I do need to, what am I missing as I have tried various different combinations of destination sets. When I try to access the site through my browser IE5 I get any number of errors. Could this be due to the fact the IP address for the site is the same as the webserver and the DNS server.

PLEASE HELP this is starting wear me down.

Thanks B-(

How about giving us the error code or the content of the wording so we might help

Yes sorry about that I've had so many errors along the way I was generalising a little.

The current message I am getting is

403 Forbidden - The server denies the specified Uniform Resource Locator (URL). Contact the server administrator. (12202)
Internet Security and Acceleration Server

I have removed all policies and filters from ISA and only have my destination set still there which is tmsweb.mydomain.com and the internal IP range of the webserver.

I am not using ISA as a firewall as we have a netscreen to do that job.

Thanks :-(

Take a look at your logs it should look like something like this folder named W3SVC20
file named ex010927
this will give you more information about what is going on

I have looked at the file WEBEXTD20010928 from the ISA server log folder and can't find anything relating to me trying to access our intranet site.

The log file is too big to post here.

Anything else I need to look at?
