ISA 2004 firewall service does not start
After you install Microsoft Internet Security and Acceleration (ISA) Server 2004 on a multiprocessor computer, and then you restart the computer, you experience both of the following symptoms:
• The following services do not start as expected:
ISACTRL
WSPSRV
• The following event is logged in the System log:

Event Type: Error
Event Source: Microsoft ISA Server Control
Event Category: None
Event ID: 14109
Date: date
Time: time
User: N/A
Computer: computer name
Description: The ISA Server Standard Edition cannot run. Either the server is using more than 4 processors, or it is configured to use the Active Directory service. Use the source location 100.281.4.0.2161.50 to report the failure. Contact Microsoft (R) Corporation for more information.

To resolve the issue install ISA 2004 SP2.

The Skinny on ISA in SBS 2008

The Skinny on ISA in SBS 2008

The official word:

"With respect to ISA, here's what we're public on:

- SBS no longer will support being the edge box. You'll need SBS to be behind a network firewall of some sort -- could be a hardware firewall, could be a software firewall, such as ISA.

- ISA, itself, will no longer support running on the SBS server itself -- this is really related to #1. We're building the SBS tools in the next rev assuming that the network firewall is elsewhere."

I wish I was allowed to say more about what's going on in the next version of SBS but I'm not. So from the official statement above it doesn't take a rocket scientist to notice that you're going to have to place your ISA server in front of SBS next time around on a seperate server. Unfortunately there's no public statement about what this means the product list is for SBS Premium because obviously we're going to need another license of Windows for that second server. We'll have to wait and see.
