Installing ISA Server on Servers Running Windows Server 2003
You can also install ISA Server after you upgrade to Windows Server 2003. However, the packet filter extension driver in the release version of ISA Server is incompatible with Windows Server 2003, and it is blocked from loading during installation. During installation, you can safely ignore all error messages that are related to this issue because ISA Server SP1 includes a compatibility fix for the driver. After you install ISA Server, the incompatible software services do not start. You must then apply ISA Server SP1 to implement the driver fix. After you install ISA Server SP1, you must install the ISA Server 2000 Required Updates for Windows Server 2003 package.

Q. I have SQL Server 2000 with approximately 45 databases on a single instance. These databases are used by multiple ASP applications running on my public Web site. SQL Server regularly reaches 100 percent CPU utilization and requires reboots. How should I start troubleshooting and repairing this problem?
A Start with rebuilding all of your indexes. It’s easy, assuming you have memory configured correctly. Then run SQL Profiler for a few hours and capture a snapshot of your standard business T-SQL traffic. Run this trace through the Index Tuning Wizard (ITW) that comes built into SQL Server 2000. It will take a look at the queries and make recommendations for indexes to improve performance.
