Question : ISA Server Not Allowing Internal Devices to Access the Internet

PLEASE HELP

I wanted to test out some monitoring software for our network that uses SNMP to analyze network flows.  When the software wouldn't accept my ISA Server as an exporter, I thought, "maybe that's because I haven't enabled SNMP traffic to it."  So I created an Access Rule that ALLOWED the traffic type of the protocol SNMP from the INTERNAL NETWORK (our LAN: and I specified my desktop's IP address) to LOCAL HOST (the ISA Server).  I also specified that only the IT Active Directory group could use it.

When I clicked Apply, it started applying and then the progress bar stopped moving.  Then my remote session got cut off (I was remoting into it).  I tried to remote back in, but to no avail.  I went into the server room and logged into it directly.  It took a longer time than usual to log in (which I now assume is because it's not talking to my DNS servers inside our network).  Then I checked my desktop, and I didn't have Internet access.  So I went and disabled the new rule I had just created.  Still no Internet access.  Then I deleted the rule.  Still no Internet access.  I rebooted twice.  Still no Internet access.

So I did more troubleshooting and found out that:  It's not our ISP, as the ISA server has Internet access.  It's not any of our switches, as we still have all network access.  It's not a bad Ethernet cable or switch port.  The problem lies in the sending and/or receiving of data from the Internal NIC on the ISA server to the switch that it's connected to.

Unfortunately, I've never created an XML backup file of our ISA configuration, so I have nothing to go back to.  Is there ANYTHING anyone can think of that would fix my problem?

ah, probably because the last fetch array gives False.   If I understand this right, you want it to print "good" if there is any row for this username,  and no good only if there is no row.

If that is correct, then try this:

///////  Mechanism to determine if the user has and data saved to this table  //////////////////////////  
include_once "connect_to_mysql.php";  
 
$sql = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM portfolio WHERE username='$username'");  
if ( mysql_num_rows($sql) == 0)
  print "return_msg=no_good";    
else
  print "return_msg=all_good";
