Hello Kent,
Thank you for posting here.
For first question, I suggest you that automatically configure the clients'
proxy settings by GPO. You'd better create a new GPO for IE proxy, but not
modify an existing GPO.
1. Run "gpmc.msc" in SBS server, navigate to
Domains->YourServerName->MyBusiness->Computers->SBSComputers in Group
Policy Management.
2. Right-click SBSComputers select Create and Link a GPO Here
3. Input name of the GPO (i.e. IE proxy setting)
4. Right-click this new GPO IE proxy setting, select Edit.
5. In the opening Group Policy Object Editor console, navigate User
Configuration->Windows Settings->Internet Explorer Maintenance->Connection
6. In the right pane, double-click Proxy Settings, tick Enable proxy
settings and input the address of proxy, then click OK.
Then, I suggest that we try the following steps to make all clients apply
this setting:
Modify the Security Filtering for this GPO:
1. Run "gpmc.msc" in SBS server, navigate to the IE proxy setting GPO in
Group Policy Management.
2. In the right pane, select Scope tap, you will find Security Filtering
box.
3 Because the IE proxy group policy is depend on Users, please ensure the
user accounts which you use to logon SBS server are not include in the
group that is in the Security Filtering list.
1) Create a new user group.
2) Add all users which you want to perform this proxy setting as the member
of this new group. And ensure the user accounts which you use to logon SBS
server are not including in this new group.
3) Add this new group to IE proxy GPO Security Filtering list.
For second question, ISA 2004 can give out Top Users by total traffic load,
but ISA 2004 reporting function can't analyze the traffic coming from
individual user.
As I know, ISA Server 2004 Query can give you some help. It gathers
real-time traffic via ISA and logs them. You may get the info your want in
the query.
To edit and run ISA Server 2004 log queries, follow these steps:
1. Click Start, point to All Programs, point to Microsoft ISA Server, and
then click ISA Server Management.
2. In the Microsoft Internet Security and Acceleration Server 2004 console,
expand YourServerName , and then click Monitoring.
3. In the center pane, click the Logging tab, right-click Log Record Type,
and then click Edit Filter.
Note By default, ISA Server 2004 includes the following two filter queries.
However, you can customize the criteria of both queries to create
additional filter queries.
Log Record Type
Log Time
4. In the Edit Filter dialog box, click the Log Record Type entry, and then
click the criteria that you want to filter by in each drop-down list.
5. Click the Log Time entry, and then click the criteria that you want to
filter by in each drop-down list.
6. Click Update, and then click Start Query.
In the center pane you will see Fetching Results appear while the query
runs. After the query has started, results are displayed in the center
pane. The results contain information about the most common network
features and about the results from the filter criteria that you have set.
You can use this information to analyze the traffic from your computer via
ISA server.
In addition, some third party applications can analyze traffic on user
basis. For example, you can find an application GFI WebMonitor for ISA
Server from the following web page:

| I just installed ISA 2004 on a SBS 2003 box and it seems to be working
OK. If
| I configure my browser to use the proxy server, I can connect to the
Internet
| fine. However, I have two questions:
|
| 1. How to I automatically configure the clients to use the proxy
settings?
|
| 2. How do I get reports to see who has been going to which sites? I saw
| there is a "reports" tab in ISA 2004 but it's not very intuitive. I would
| like to be able to view reports by date and by username.
|
| Thanks,
| Kent
