Hi,

I've got a simple setup for my MCSE learning. I have a Windows 2000 server
with SP4 on it and ISA server (SP1), and I'm running Mailtraq
(www.mailtraq.com) as a SMTP/POP3/NNTP server). I'm using a Windows XP box
as a client for teh SMTP/POP3/NNTP services.

The problem I'm havign is this, Mailtraq collects NNTP data from my ISP's
news server then hosts it locally for the XP box. I use outlook express XP
as a news client. Outlook express XP contacts the NNTP server succesfully
at first and starts downloading the news messages, however part way in it'll
hang and the Windows 2000 box blue screesn with the
IRQ_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL_TO. I've checked the IRQ on teh hardware and that's
fine. I've tried different news servers (Dnews and hamster), and different
news clients. All seems to have the same result.

I'm wondering if this is an ISA issue, or should I be looking elsewhere?
The event log doesn't have anything more informative in it that "the last
shutdown was unexpected", which isn't very informative.

Thanks in advance for any help received.

Regards,

Simon Carter.
