ISA Svr and Terminal Server

I am looking for some best practices advice please.

We currently have to replace our ISA Svr box with new hardware. At the
moment this box only does this plus WSUS and virus management. Basically
nothing. However the organisation is about to install a TS server to
service about 60+ remote users. Originally we were going to place a
second box behind the ISA server to do this but wondered if the TS
workload could go on the ISA box to save on hardware?

So the question is: would it be ok to combine TS and ISA on the same box
or should we stick to the original plan of TS behind ISA? What do other
people do here?

Thanks,

Hello Geoff,

ISA server should always run as a dedicated machine to built the wall between
internet and internal network. Choose additional hardware for TS.
