Some additional info,
1) look at ms proxy server or CSM proxy if all that you are wanting to
authenticate is outbound http/https/ftp browsing. These will provide
transparent authentication
2) Meta/Ip will provide transparent authentication, I do not think the
others listed will?
3) Look at using a w2k standalone server with its ias . It can be a
standalone server in a NT domain and act as a radius proxy server. It can
also handle realms. teh w2k version is much more fully featured.
4) if you end up with MS IAS then go to news.microsoft.com newsgroup
microsoft.public.internet.radius, there are a few MS guys that hang out
there that may be of some help.
5) one way trusts will need to be setup if you have multiple domains to auth
against.

Making the firewall a domain member would be a really bad idea, but Jason is
correct that it will work. In fact using NT domain passwords is a really bad
idea in general. I think this is a commonly agreed upon fact. If you must do
this (as we all must at one point or another) it is much better to use
external authenticators, such as a RADIUS or TACACS server that can proxy
the PDC for authentication.

Haven't tried it but I believe if your firewall is NT and on the Domain, you
can select OS Password as your authentication method. User hits rule with
Authentication, prompts NT OS to see if it is valid, NT Firewall doesn't
have the user defined locally so it polls the PDC, and the PDC validates the
user.

All,
Is is possible to use your NT domains to authenticate Internet users thru
FW-1 or do I have to use an LDAP or RADIUS server?
Thanks in Advance,
Dave.
