Gbenga, Proxy Server 2.0 was the last version released before ISA server, and it did not support transparent proxy. Supporting transparent proxy is important here, since the HTTP header for a proxy request will always contain certain lines (such as "Host:"), whereas direct HTTP 1.0 requests may eliminate these lines.
For a proxy server to work correctly, it is important that it know both the destination IP/host and the URL. If the proxy does not receive all of the required information, it can't service the proxy client. I am more familiar with Squid (I don't know whether Squid is supported on Windows) which can be configured to fix-up HTTP requests on the fly (recreating the Host line from the URI for example), allowing it to be used as a transparent proxy... IP helper addresses don't apply to the problem you are trying to solve. Policy-based routing and WCCP won't do anything for you either, since you are limited by the Proxy server. You either have to use the bundled Proxy client software to force users to use the proxy or use a different proxy server. - Tom OLUGBENGA BANKOLE wrote: > Tom, > I refer to Microsoft Proxy server. i.e can I direct traffic to a microsoft > proxy just like I would a DHCP server by using the ip helper address command. > > > Regards, > Gbenga > > > To God be the Glory.Gbenga. > > --------------------------------- > Do you Yahoo!? > SBC Yahoo!
