The revelation for me wasn’t a specific entry in the TMG application event log, but rather the presence of entries specifying that the TMG box couldn’t properly communicate with the DPM server (i.e., outbound traffic from TMG => DPM). Previously, I had only been watching the TMG firewall logs for traffic coming *into* the TMG box. After seeing the application event log entries, I shifted to watching the *outbound* traffic on the TMG box … and that’s when I saw the RPC-related issues.

I hope that explains things a bit better.

You adding the screenshots is very helpful, however i couldn’t follow where in the event viewer did you see the logs where you got the ‘aha’ moment.

It helps me solve the problem of accessing to DPM agent on notebooks in the another network through the VPN site-to-site connection.

When I said “I was fairly sure …,” I actually meant that I didn’t think I’d had to disable strict RPC compliance enforcement on ISA 2006. My memory proved wrong, though, as I indicated a few lines later. :-)

Thanks for pointing out the manual agent install link!

I had instead the same problem with ISA server 2006. I couldn’t install DPM agent until I used this guide:
