Guest ReddogCA Posted August 8, 2007 Posted August 8, 2007 Can someone please explain to me what the difference between ISA and IIS is? We are a Windows 2000 and 2003 Server environment with 2003 DCs. Thank you.
Guest Anthony Posted August 8, 2007 Posted August 8, 2007 Re: What Is The Diff Betwn ISA and IIS? IIS is the web server provided in Windows Server. An alternative is Apache. ISA is a software firewall with strong proxying capabilities (i.e it can respond as though it was the web server). An alternative is a hardware firewall or something like Squid. Of course both IIS and ISA are well integrated with other MS products like AD and Exchange.

Guest Mathieu CHATEAU Posted August 8, 2007 Posted August 8, 2007 Re: What Is The Diff Betwn ISA and IIS? hello, IIS is a web server. It serves internet pages, dynamic or not (html, aspx...) ISA is both a firewall and a proxy (even a reverse proxy). The firewall part protect two zone by filterint what's going on between. -- Cordialement, Mathieu CHATEAU http://lordoftheping.blogspot.com "ReddogCA" <ReddogCA@discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:84C0FFF0-73D9-4139-AEF6-EA00F084A6FE@microsoft.com... > Can someone please explain to me what the difference between ISA and IIS > is? > We are a Windows 2000 and 2003 Server environment with 2003 DCs.
