Internet Security and Acceleration Server 2004: FIX: Connections to a Web site that was published by ISA Server 2004 may fail and you receive a connection time-out error

SUPPORT SOLUTION:
Consider the following scenario:You publish a Web site by using Microsoft Internet Security and Acceleration (ISA) Server 2004.
You configure the Web publishing rule to Requests appear to come from the original client.In this scenario, the requests that are forwarded by ISA Server 2004 to the Web server may fail, and you receive a connection time-out error..A previously-closed client connection is recreated with ISA Server 2004 after ISA Server 2004 closes a session to the Web server. Generally, ISA Server 2004 immediately tries to reestablish the session on behalf of the same client by using the original IP address and port.This problem occurs because ISA Server 2004 reestablishes the session by using the original client IP address and port. This behavior may cause the Web server to reject the new connection because the Web server has not cleaned up the state of the previous connection that was made by using the previous client IP address and port..Hotfix information
