ISA has some pretty nifty features that I haven't ^ seen mirrored anywhere else, in any product (it's a much ^ better caching server then Squid, etc. in it's ability to ^ tailor it to what to cache/not cache and update schema). ^ ^ So, if you want something sure fire, you can grab a ^ ClarkConnect package for ^ $65 and a low-end P3, and you're golden. If you want to use ^ the software you have, construct a higher end box, and learn ^ something you sell, ISA Server might be a good one to try out ^ (or hell, just use Virtual PC, load up ^ Win2k3 in a VPC, and install ISA on it, and use it as a ^ pass-through required server if you're willing :) ^ ^ ^ ^ -------------------------------------------------------------- ^ -------------- ^ ---------- ^ FIGHT BACK AGAINST SPAM! ^ Download Spam Inspector, the Award Winning Anti-Spam Filter ^ http://mail.giantcompany.com ^ ^ -----Original Message----- ^ From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ^ [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of rls ^ Sent: Friday, December 16, 2005 10:33 PM ^ To: 'The Hardware List' ^ Subject: RE: [H] Controlling download speeds for various users ^ ^ I have son who spends his time steaming video etc, instead of ^ doing school work.
