Personally, I would leave ISA and DHCP alone. ISA is a second line of
defense for anything missed by the Cisco, as well as providing access
control and caching. As Susan will tell you, a layered defense is best -
it's far less likely for both the Cisco and ISA to be vulnerable to the same
attack. As for DHCP, I believe in leaving SBS as close to its default
configuration as possible in the absence of a reason to do otherwise. I'd
prefer to leave my DHCP server in SBS alone, especially since it's working
fine, and disable DHCP on the Cisco.
