Hello,

Thanks for your clarification and response. Because the ISA 2006 is a new
released product, I will perform further research with your issues. Thanks.

| Thanks Ken,
|
| You lost me on a few items.
|
| 1) I have a rule that is HTTP, HTTPS, and HTTPS Server as one object in
the
| firewall policy. Are you saying that I should separate each of these
into
| three objects / rules?
|
| 2) SSL Tunnel was allowed thru the (All Access) rule that I created. I
| figured out why it was going however, and was not related to the PORT
443,
| but rather the destination. My HTTP / HTTPS / HTTPS Server rule was only
| allowed to the destination of the External network. The requests were
| attempting to connect on port 8080 of the Local Host, I assume so that
the
| SSL encryption that you spelled out could take place. When I added the
Local
| host to the rule, the logger then showed the client traffic being
allowed.
| This was a test, and my thoughts were that I was going to create a
separate
| rule to allow HTTPS to local host, instead of all http and https traffic.

| What do you think?
|
| 3) From your port I am reading things about publishing to a web server.
| This is not what I am attempting to do. Rather I have client software
| installed written by a third party, that starts up. It appears to be
Java
| based application. In my issue, the user goes to an https:\\servername
from
| IE, logs in, this all works just fine. Then clicks a link that starts up
a
| Java based Mainframe application that creates an SSL-Tunnel thru the
| connection. The user authorizes several certificates, and then
everything
| works. What I was seeing was that when the user connected, the
SSL-Tunnel
| traffic was dropping because the only rule that allow https to the local
host
| was my (all access) rule, and this user was not allowed to use the rule.
|
| 4) Here is my issue as it stands. I have two clients that perform the
steps
| as outlined above in #3. One machine connects and works just fine.
| Originally I thought the issue was SSL-Tunnel related, but I am starting
to
| think not. Here is what I see, the same user logs into 2 machines, one
| connects to the Java based client, the other does not, instead they are
| prompted with a message box "Password Needed - Networking" the dialog box
| continues with "Firewall: Unknown Site" "Realm: ntlm" "Scheme" then there
are
| two boxes for User Name and Password. If the user enters his/her logon
| credencials, then nothing happens. If an Administrator enters his, then
the
| (Java Program) loads. The box apprears to be Java based. I suspect that
| this is machine based, and some setting. I have combed thru the IE
settings
| and can't see any differences, all the settings are the same. The only
thing
| I saw, was the version of Java, but this doesn't explain why it works for
an
| admin.
|
| Other notes, each user takes the exact same GPO and the GPO Results
| printouts are exact for each respective machine.
|
| Sorry for all the notes, just trying to give you a good picture of what I
am
| seeing.
|
| Thanks again.
