cluberti Posted May 22, 2006 Share Posted May 22, 2006 I have to second that one - you need a proxy server, and one that can understand AD, user accounts and groups, etc. The only one I am aware of is Microsoft's ISA Server. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cluberti Posted May 23, 2006 Share Posted May 23, 2006 There are dedicated hardware devices that run ISA 2004, but any Windows 2003 server-class box should be able to run ISA 2004 just fine. If you plan on using it as a caching or VPN server as well, you'll need to beef processor and memory as appropriate - I prefer a dual proc box w/4GB of RAM and SCSI disks, but lesser hardware for a small environment should be fine.Note that if you plan on installing this in a large environment with multiple ISA servers, you'll need to acquire the enterprise edition.

Zartach Posted May 23, 2006 Share Posted May 23, 2006 when I browse through the ISA sites.... wwhy they seldom use the word "Proxy Server"?? but i see many "firewall server"... The ISA server is the new product that evolved out of Proxy2 for Windows NT and when microsoft added firewall/vpn and more functions to it they renamed it to make it sound more like a security product than a load balancing service.ISA will do exactly what you want, it will have the users log into the domain to be able to use the internet, just force all internet traffic through it. It will still cache pages too i believe (been a while since i fiddled with ISA so could be wrong here) and you can even set groups where one group can and the other cant access the internet.Check the ISA site and in your canse this scenario would be the most interesting: http://www.microsoft.com/isaserver/2006/wap.mspxHope it helps, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our environment will not be so big.... max. 90 workstations... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cluberti Posted May 24, 2006 Share Posted May 24, 2006 2006 is still a beta, so unless you have no qualms about beta software in your org, go for 2004.And yes, that HP box would be appropriate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
