SBS2003 + ISA2004 + iPhone query

An accountant friend of mine has an SBS 2003 Premium server with ISA 2004.

He also has an iPhone.

He has two broadband lines at his home office, one for domestic use and one
for his accountancy business use.

So he has two separate LAN's, one home and one business...(bear with me) bot
fitted up for Wireless connections.

His business broadband line is faster and better than his domestic line and
he doesn't have to share that with his family.

So he tends to connect his iPhone to his SBS 2003 LAN as performance is
better.

Question.

When he wants to watch certain video and audio streaming content from some
websites on his business LAN through ISA 2004 his iPhone has a message
saying 'content not authorized' or something like that.

If he accesses the same content on a business PC on the business LAN again
through ISA 2004 it works perfectly so it's not filtered out as such.

If he connects his iPhone to his home domestic LAN then the content works
just fine.

So it seems only to be an issue on his iPhone when it is connected to his
business LAN through ISA2004

Anyone care to suggest as to where to start looking ? proxy settings on the
iPhone wireless connection ?

Anything is ISA 2004 to do specifically with wireless clients ?

Jim.

If connecting through the WLAN option (and not through ATT) for access on
the business LAN, then Proxy (ISA) is restricting the account. If ISA is
setup to allow based on authorized access, meaning that he must log in or be
logged on to a Windows machine, and ISA uses Windows Authentication, then it
appears he's not logged on to the ISA with his SBS account (using the iPhone
WLAN access), then ISA will restrict access. I don't remember how or if
possible to configure proxy credentials on an iPhone. Is there an option to
provide credentials?

Do you have ISA setup to restrict based on credentials, or IP address or
both? If both, and the AP has its own subnet, is the AP subnet defined as an
internal subnet? If you use a laptop on the AP, does the site work?

Does the wireless AP have its own DHCP service (giving out it's own IP
addresses on a subnet different than the business LAN), or is the wireless
AP set it 'corporate mode' (that gets an IP from SBS DHCP)?

The AP just relays the SBS2003 DHCP to the iPhone.

The iPhone has HTTP proxy connection selected and is setup for Manual
settings:

Server - 10.0.0.2 ( don't think it worked when I put the server name or fqdn
? )

Port - 8080

Username - domain\username

Password - password

If I set the iPhone HTTP proxy to Off or Auto then it doesn't work at all,
it only works on the SBS2003 LAN if set to Manual with the settings as
above.

Web browsing generally works it;s just things like YouTube clips through the
iPhone YouTube player and some other streaming services.

I think they do work from a laptop over the wireless connection but I'll
double check.

Like I said, take the iPhone away from the SBS2003 LAN and connect to the
domestic wireless profile, then it all works fine.

If you have to select it to manual, then it sounds like something in the way
the iPhone handles a proxy entry. Check the other wireless laptops, but I
have a feeling they'll work and the issue is the iPhone setting.
