Strange Responses when forwarding to a parent proxy w/ websense

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hello,

My employer uses Websense for Filtering & some MS Proxy variant for all
of our internet access.  Typically we're required to enter all of this
information in to our desktops when connecting.

Now, I was attempting to set up WPAD(web proxy auto detection), and
encountered some strange results.  If I had WPAD.dat point to a squid
server running on the desktop which forwarded to a parent proxy being
this MS proxy, it skips websense!  I wasn't sure what to make of this,
and thought maybe websense went down.  I tried again using their proxy
settings, and websense was for sure still working.  I tried manually
entering my squid settings, and not doing WPAD, and again websense has
been skipped.

Can someone explain why this is happening?  I mean i'm not going to
argue my ability to access my gmail at work or anything, but I'd like to
understand why.

Mario
