That's a very logical approach and yes, it will work. 
Is there something else as part of "B" that may be more useful?

Subject: [isalist] Blocking a Specific URL

http://www.ISAserver.org


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?
