Blocking a Specific URL

  • From: "Ball, Dan" <DBall@xxxxxxxxxxx>

I'm trying to figure out how to block a specific URL on our Webserver.

 

Specifically, our student database uses parameters to access different
programs instead of different URLs.  

 

For example:

http://www.domain.org/database.exe/parameter=A
<http://www.domain.org/database.exe/parameter=A>   opens one program,
while

http://www.domain.org/database.exe/parameter=B  opens an entirely
different program.

 

I want to leave program A accessible from the Internet, but block
program B.

 

So, I created a firewall access policy on the ISA server denying access
from External networks to a URL set containing
http://www.domain.org/database.exe/parameter=B.  

 

Is this the best way to do it?
