We need to configure our Server 2003 and workstations to connect to the
internet via ISDN (USB Modem).
We struggling to get broadband in our area.
What is the easiest way to do this?
I have a DHCP server running so the GW and DNS details can be given to PC's
automatically.
But i seem to be lost as to how to get the Internet Connection on the server
running and then "shared" to all the users.

Thanks in advance

In this case, you may want to setup NAT. To setup NAT, you must have two NICs in the server. this search result may help,

he doesn't need 2 nic's if the isdn connection is via a usb modem... though
it would be easier to buy an isdn router to handle the nat/dhcp/dns for you
the rest of what he says is probably ok. just be darn sure you have the
firewall configured and everything closed up on the internet connection side
before you make the first connection... then only open ports as needed for
what you need to serve to the world after you are sure all your patches,
anti-virus, etc are up to date.
