APPLIES TO

  • Microsoft Internet Security and Acceleration Server 2004 Enterprise Edition
  • Microsoft Internet Security and Acceleration Server 2004 Standard Edition




SYMPTOMS

You can log the client computer on to external File Transfer Protocol (FTP) sites. You can do this if the client computer is behind the downstream Microsoft Internet Security and Acceleration (ISA) Server computer that is in a firewall chain. However, if you send commands such as ls to the FTP server, you receive the following reply message, and then you receive no other replies from the server:

150 Opening ASCII mode data connection for file list

CAUSE

The problem occurs if the following conditions are true:

  • The firewall chaining is configured in the downstream ISA Server computer.
  • The downstream ISA Server computer points to an upstream ISA Server computer.
  • The client computer is configured with the firewall client and points to the downstream ISA Server computer.

After you apply the hotfix

After you apply the hotfix on the downstream ISA Server computer, use the following script to manually turn on the EnableDownstreamSecondary option:

Sub AddEnableSecondary()

    ' Create the root object.
    Dim root  ' The FPCLib.FPC root object
    Set root = CreateObject("FPC.Root")

    'Declare the other objects needed.
    Dim array       ' An FPCArray object
    Dim VendorSets  ' An FPCVendorParametersSets collection
    Dim VendorSet   ' An FPCVendorParametersSet object

    ' Get references to the array object
    ' and the network rules collection.
    Set array = root.GetContainingArray
    Set VendorSets = array.VendorParametersSets

    On Error Resume Next
    Set VendorSet = VendorSets.Item( "{143F5698-103B-12D4-FF34-1F34767DEabc}" )

    If Err.Number <> 0 Then
        Err.Clear

        ' Add the item
        Set VendorSet = VendorSets.Add( "{143F5698-103B-12D4-FF34-1F34767DEabc}" )
        CheckError
        WScript.Echo "New VendorSet added... " & VendorSet.Name

    Else
        WScript.Echo "Existing VendorSet found... value- " &  VendorSet.Value("EnableDownstreamSecondary")
    End If

    if VendorSet.Value("EnableDownstreamSecondary") <> true Then

        Err.Clear
        VendorSet.Value("EnableDownstreamSecondary") = true

        If Err.Number <> 0 Then
            CheckError
        Else
            VendorSets.Save false, true
            CheckError

            If Err.Number = 0 Then
                WScript.Echo "Done with EnableDownstreamSecondary, saved!"
            End If
        End If
    Else
        WScript.Echo "Done with EnableDownstreamSecondary, no change!"
    End If

End Sub

Sub CheckError()

    If Err.Number <> 0 Then
        WScript.Echo "An error occurred: 0x" & Hex(Err.Number) & " " & Err.Description
