Thanks Ralph. I ended up getting a trial version of Wingate software for the proxy server and another trial version of ProxyInspector 3 for the reporting. If these workout and the company wants to keep monitoring what the devices are doing, we'll probably use Wingate. The Wingate is less than $75 USD. However, the Proxy Inspector 3 software is $349 so I'm going to have to look for another reporting tool. Appreciate the tip though! Don

Not free but also not expensive. I don’t recall if it had reporting features, I do remember that it generated a log. Never had a problem with it.

I've found "Squid" (free on linux) and TMG/ISA so far but would appreciate anyone's real world experience with a software based proxy solution.

I am trying to get a look at our volume licensing paperwork to see if this is in there so at least I can get it loaded. I will pass on the fact that no more TMG for also. Do you know if they are creating a new proxy server product then? Much appreciated!

It evolved from the old Proxy Server which also was not free. There is no free proxy server from Microsoft of which I am aware. You should also be aware that Microsoft is no longer developing new versions of TMG.

I'm trying to investigate something here. I've been instructed to install a Proxy server on Windows 2008 R2 (64 bit) Everything I'm seeing says you can't use ISA 2006 on 2008 64 bit server. It seems as though Forefront TMG 2010 is the microsoft product for creating a proxy server. Howerver, it also seems like it costs to do this. So my questions are 1) Was ISA free for a proxy server? 2) Is TMG the only Microsoft product you can use to build a proxy server on 2008 R2 ?
