but those sites say it uses any port between 1024 and 65535 to make outgoing
calls.... and I don´t want to allow all these ports as some of said sites
suggest...

BUT,   as the customer first states that they want a firewall, and block
sites, allowing just those that they approve, and then start asking to
permit hotmail, gmail, msn messenger, skype, yahoo, etc, maybe I shouldn´t
care that much if too much ports are open... <grin>

a quick google says in the skype config you can set it to a particular port
25000-40000 to use. So set it and then you should be able to go from there.

Subject: ISA 2006 and allowing SKYPE

Hello,

in one customer, one person was allowed to run skype, in the grounds that
one of their customers need it to send invoices.

How do I permit it to pass through the ISA firewall ? Currently, only
approved sites are allowed to be accessed , so that I have to explicitly
allow it to work. But the recomendations in skype´s site, and on some
forums, are to allow all traffic from that machine to and from the internet,
and things like that, and I wouldn´t like to do this.

Is there a way to  make skype behave like a serious software, or due to it´s
inheritance from a p2p file sharing tool it just cannot be made to work like
this?


Thanks.
