hello all,,i have installed ms isa server 2004 and it was working fine with web proxy clients though static ips,,now i want dynamically assigned ips on client side.i have started dhcp service bt the client is unable to fetch ip address from server,,i dont no what to do.

I never worked with ISA but why would you want to use DHCP if all is well with static IPs? I never understood why the world loves DHCP so much.
How do you know when a politician is lying? His mouth is moving.

its project requirement,,i cant help it,,one thing more i have used dhcp with web proxy and all worked well now i dont know what is the problem with isa,,i have defined firewall policies to allow all outbound traffic.still no progress

It sounds like that there is still a policy blocking it. I hope you don't have Norton running or something similar.

noo i have allowed all outbound traffic from internal to external and local host. there is no point of policy blocking,, i think i am missing some thing in dhcp installtion nd wat is dat i dont noo

Run services.msc
Is DHCP enabled & started?How do you know when a politician is lying? His mouth is moving.

mahaali
Are the clients set to get a dhcp address?
When you say outbound are you trying to assign ips to people on the internet?
what is the "client side"? Wan or Lan?
"I never understood why the world loves DHCP so much."#1. it scales to large networks
#2 centralizes ip administration
#3 allows you to update/change the ip plan dynamically
#4 allows you to do static ip assignments with ip reservations
#5 dynamically updates MS DNSWhy workstation static ips don't scale.
#1 static ip assignments require you to document and update that document any time a change is made. Labor intensive.
#2 does not scale with larger amounts of workstations
#3 labor intensive to then change to dhcpHopefully this will help your understanding.

Wanderer, most of the time, in this forum, we are talking about home networks which may consist of a few PCs. I never suggested static IPs for large networks.

Then add to the list
#6 easy for unskilled network users to setup and use:-)
There are a LOT of large network questions here also dealing with domains, multiple site connections etc.

i am trying to assign dynamic ips to internal network that comes through isa,both isa and domain controller exists on same pc.this pc has to nics,,one that is attatched to router and other to switch that manages internal network.i think now u can understand what i want to do

You didn't mention anything about the machine having 2 NICs, in your first post.
Windows has a hard time with dual NICs.How do you know when a politician is lying? His mouth is moving.

dhcp should only be associated with the lan nic not the wan nic
Let's try these questions again
Are the clients set to get a dhcp address?
When you say outbound are you trying to assign ips to people on the internet?
what is the "client side"? Wan or Lan?

yes the clients are set to get dynamic ips
i am trying to assign ips to clients present on internal
network(LAN)
off course the client side is LAN

what do you meab ny public interface,,same computer with same settings working well with win proxy,,dhcp was working there,,the problem is with isa,,though all traffic is allowed,,cant say a word,,it took me a month and still no progress

Public is the wan interface. The nic facing the internet. Make sure it is unchecked in dhcp console.
first problem is ISA is a edge security software. It is recommended it not be installed on a dns/dhcp/AD server but on a standalone.
is your issue with dhcp or with isa?
