On the 98 authenication part, they don't type in their real usernames and password when the start 98, because it gives them an error saying domain not found. These are old Sales guys who shouldn't even have computers, it is a poor setup because it would take me 20 minutes to explain something as simple as how to setup the info in the proxy.. Then I would get calls when they disconnect about why can't I surf on my cable modem, and I would have to tell them to uncheck the box.. I was just hoping their would be a solution so I didn't have to interupt their little worlds.. As far as not being able to monitor them, we still have the good ole boy network in place, so they don't care where they go or what they do.. They would rather buy more bandwidth than control what we have. (We are currently at 3mb for internet and can go to 10 easily.) OK, I am done griping now. Sorry about the rant, but having come from a real IT department the lack of control is frustrating sometimes at this place.. (and we can't be as choosy as we once were. huh.)
