Outlook Express & ISA

[Marty Leaf]

At work we have a Windows 2000 domain with ISA 2000 server. I am using
Outlook Express 6 only for newsgroups. I have no problem connecting to the
news.microsoft.com server. I also have a giganews account thru Comcast which
requires username & password. I can't connect using the giganews account
when I am here at work. When I go home I connect to giganews just fine. I am
thinking maybe it is an ISA server setting?

Any ideas?,
-Marty

Sorry, I posted to the wrong newsgroup. I reposted to microsoft.public isa

Giganews is only accessible via the Comcast connection. If you have no
Comcast connection at work, it will not work. Period.

That must be it. I remember hearing that before.

Thank you,
