Authentication in ISA 2006

Hi,

This should be an easy enough question but for some reason I can't figure it out. Anyway, I've installed ISA on a member server (although to install ISA I had to remove the server from the domain, install it, then rejoin the domain). All is working fine except in the log all client usernames show up as anonymous. I changed the rules so as they only allowed authenticated users, rather than all users but that just blocked all requests, the log showing because the user was anonymous

I've installed the Firewall Client on my machine but that didn't do anythign to help this particular problem. How do I set it so that the clients authenticate?

Try make the answer sound a little difficult so I don't seem so stupid :)

Thanks for your help.

Just noticed something else, when I opened uTorrent, which is blocked, all the denied logs had a username lee.murphy, although it had a (?) after it. But the web requests are still anonymous.

You don't have to remove the server from the domain when installing ISA server. Maybe this is the origin of your problem.

Hi Nicolas, I had to remove it fromt he domain because as a member server I was getting the error "Setup failed while creating ISA Server storage" during install, then install would fail. I googled the error and pretty much everyone was saying, remove the server from the domain, install ISA, rejoin the domain. I did that and it "seemed" to work.
