[isalist] Re: adp web based program

I don't know anything about ADP specifically, but a taxi card management app at 
one of my clients has had similar problems for a variety of reason, including 
being generally poorly written. But one that I came across a while ago was the 
application was trying to open a connection on a port other than 80 or 443. The 
ISA on the SBS server blocked this, and so the web app died. But once I 
identified the additional port from the ISA logs and opened it up, it started 
working again.
 
 
Check the ISA logs for any fails on non standard ports.

Greetings everyone,

 

I have a problem which I appreciate if anyone can help me to the right 
direction. We are using web based version of ADP payroll. The problem is it is 
very slow and most times it times out. When I check on ISA logs in shows failed 
attempt to ADP site. I decided to add it to direct host settings.

 

Client is an XP SP2 but with popup blocker disabled based on adp tech advise 
and also it has a certificate assigned to it. Certificate is given to client so 
only that machine can login to their service. 

 

If I disconnect the wire and connect it directly to internet speed is 
reasonable. But behind ISA is slow as hell. Even creating a rule (allow all 
outbound form client IP address to external for sake of testing) doesn't help 
:-(

I am not sure if I have done anything wrong in settings or ADP web based is 
just not happy behind ISA server. So anyone has the same scenario would you 
tell me what your setting are?
