|
|
|
|
<P>As mentioned above, due to Integrated Authentication support configured on ISA
|
|
server, third party browsers do not work behind it. In this situation you can make use of
|
|
another authentication scheme called 'Basic Authentication', commonly supported by
|
|
most browsers and most importantly by ISA Server too. If you work in a security
|
|
conscious environment this method is not recommended since during basic
|
|
authentication, the username and password sent are loosely encrypted.
|
|
<P>The point here is that to proceed with this method you will have to make sure that you
|
|
have legitimate access over configuring the ISA Server. If you cannot access the server
|
|
configuration console, then move on to the second method in the following section.

<P>

<H2><A NAME="ss3.1">3.1 Server Side Configuration</A>
|
|
</H2>
|
|
|
|
<P>All you need to do is fire up 'ISA Management' and follow these steps:
|
|
<OL>
|
|
<LI> Right-click your server and click on Properties.</LI>
|
|
<LI> Go to the Outgoing Web Requests tab, click the configured listener that you want to change, and then click Edit.</LI>
|
|
<LI> Click Basic authentication, and then select the domain in which the accounts exist that you want to authenticate.</LI>
|
|
<LI> Now it's time to move on to your Linux-based browser.</LI>
|
|
</OL>
|
|
<H2><A NAME="ss3.2">3.2 Client Side Configuration</A>
|
|
</H2>
|
|
|
|
<P>In particular, we will take Netscape as an example here.
|
|
<P>
|
|
<OL>
|
|
<LI> Start Netscape Communicator.</LI>
|
|
<LI> Click on the Edit menu and click Preferences.</LI>
|
|
<LI> Expand 'Advanced' node and click on 'Proxies'; you will see some options on the left.</LI>
|
|
<LI> Click on Manual proxy configuration, then click on the View button.</LI>
|
|
<LI> Put your ISA Server's IP address in the HTTP: box and the port where web cache is listening (usually 8080, depends what you set).</LI>
|
|
<LI> Click on OK to confirm your changes.</LI>
|
|
<LI> You will return back to the Preferences dialog.</LI>
|
|
<LI> Click on OK to apply your changes.</LI>
|
|
</OL>
|
|
<P>Load up a test url in your browser, it will ask you for authentication information,
|
|
In place of user, type DOMAIN\USER, where your DOMAIN being the Windows domain,
|
|
and USER being a legitimate domain user. In place of password, type the
|
|
user's password. Click on OK to continue. For example:
|
|
<P>
|
|
<HR>
|
|
<PRE>
|
|
User: CABLENET\Raheel
|
|
Password: Mypassword
|
|
|
|
Where CABLENET is my domain, Raheel is the user id
|
|
and Mypassword is my password.
|
|
</PRE>
|
|
<HR>
|
|
<P>You should now see the page loading successfully. If you use a different browser
|
|
you will need to explore and see if it supports Basic Authentication.
