Hi Roy,

I think I might understand your problem now.

You should *never* enable the "ask unauthenticated users to
authenticate" option. If you want to force authenticaiton, use Access
Rules

To All Married Guys,


The disucssion threads caused by me seems to be overflow while
I really want to make sure the correct configuration and get
to know the working merchanism. To summarize the past discussion,
what I want to know is 
  - based on Client type: 1) FWC 2)WPC (webproxy)
  - at conditions: "webproxy authentication is enabled"
                   "autoproxy configuration shall be applied"
                   autodisvoery is properly configured already
  - result: right configuration so that no popup ask for authencaiton  
            in web browsing
 
After verious kinds of test in my VM, the situation is like this:
1) FWC:
   problem 1): if select "autodect ISA server" at FWC, it fails
               to find out unless "webproxy authentication is disabled"
   problme 2): if only select "autoconfig script" option at FWC tab
               for interal network configuration, popup windows
               asking for authentication comes up unless modify
               the autoscript URL by replace "ISA_FQDN" into
"isa_host_name"
   no popup authentication windows only when select "autodetect" at
   at FWC tab for interal network configuration.

2) WPC:
   problem 3): in addtion to check webproxy agent, enable either
               autodectection or autodectation option at brower
               will bring up authentication windows (this
               must be caused by webproxy authenciation requirement),
               keep click cancel "Pop-up" so that broswer act
               just as natural WPC without autoconfiguration data to
pass
               authentication.
   WPC must be manually setup including bypass list at client brower
side.

As a conclusion, there is setting limitation for autoproxy/detection
when "webproxy authentication is required for all users". Kindly
let me know your some explanation for above problem 1) -3) if you 
think I am wrong.

Thanks,

Roy Tsao
