Re: Regulation of the websites access



Man are we stubborn aren't we?

Although the article is indeed for ISA2004 the same procedure applies to
ISA2000. The redirect feature functions exactly the same. Did you even
bother to verify whether maybe the concepts from that article were
applicable to ISA2000 as well?

Check this out:
http://tinyurl.com/bbvmq ,
specifically the "Action" paragraph, that reads:

<begin quote>

Site and content rules can either allow or deny access to specific sites. If
access is denied, then for Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) objects, the
request can be redirected to an alternate Uniform Resource Locator
(URL)-typically a page on an internal server-explaining why access is
denied.

When you specify the destination to which to redirect the request, you can
specify a whole different location by typing http:// and then the URL of the
location to which to redirect the request.

When access is denied, ISA Server sends the URL specified here to the Web
browser client. The client Web browser then tries to access the object from
the destination to which ISA Server redirected.

For example, suppose a site and content rule denies access to
http://example.microsoft.com/, redirecting requests for this site to
http://widgets.microsoft.com/accessdenied.htm. When a client requests an
object on http://example.microsoft.com/, ISA Server denies the request, and
returns http://widgets.microsoft.com/accessdenied.htm to the client. The
client then requests http://widgets.microsoft.com/accessdenied.htm.
