PageGate Behind ISA Server

[wiklej]

I just started running PageGate. I will send SMTP and WCTP, then failover to TAP. I have SMTP working just fine, I relay everything thru my mail server; however, with WCTP or SMTP that doesn't relay, I cannot get PageGate to send the message.

I'm running PageGate 4.0.0.96 behind a Microsoft ISA Server 2004. I know the problem is caused by the PG server not having a public IP and not using the ISA server. How do I make PageGate use the ISA server to get to the Internet?

I read in another post that I should install the firewall client on my PG server. I did this, but messages still will not go.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Below is the dialer log for a failed message:

I didn't need the firewall client. What I did was change my default gateway to the ISA server, then add static routes in for the rest of my network. This way, Internet Options from IE don't even come into play. Unless the server has a route to a subnet, it sends it to the ISA server and on its way.

I still could not get the - wctp.wirelesscontrol.net/wctp - address working so I just used the arch address and it's working properly now.

Just out of curiosity - where did the "wctp.wirelesscontrol.net/wctp" address come from?

It came from here:
http://www.notepage.net/wctp.htm

I used the USA Mobility entry. I assumed that since Arch and they had merged (and my bills don't say Arch anymore), either address would work. Guess that's what happens when I assume, eh?
