To have your workstations use WPAD you'll have to first install it. Look
to isatools.org for the SBS WPAD implementation.

So to simplify what I need to do, i think either need to enable the Web
Proxy for my Network Properties by hitting that check box that's
currently unchecked [if i want no WPAD], or in that same window, enable
Auto Discovery in it's tab [if i want WPAD]?

Hi Jonathan,

 

You need the Web proxy and/or Firewall client configuration to get user
names. If you're using WPAD, you must enable autodiscovery information
publishing, or host that information on another Web server.

 

HTH,

        Why is autodiscovery information publishing unchecked?

                OK found it for the Internal Network.

                 

                *On the Auto Discovery tab, "Publish automatic discovery
information" was unchecked

                *On Firewall Client tab, "Enable FWC support" is
checked, my Server name is typed in, then "Automatically detect
settings" and "Use automatic config. script" (default URL) is checked.
"Use a Web proxy server" is NOT.  (these would all be default as I do
not remember changing any of this).

                 

                Now knowing this, should I check 'Use a web proxy
server', or uncheck the auto. detect settings?

                 

                Furthermore, I've never changed ISA Console > General >
Define Firewall Client Setting, so everything there should still be the
same.

                From within the ISA console, in the  the properties of
your protected network, on the firewall client tab. 

                 

                That should be selected if you want to autocinfigure the
FWC.

                Could you further explain?  I remember during ISA 2004
setup whether I'm connecting a console to an existing ISA server, or
make a new ISA server, but I doubt that's it.

                Have you disabled auto detect in the ISA console,
because that's where the instruction comes from.

                Yes, but like I said, I believe most of my FWC installs
have a hard-coded server address typed in, so it shouldn't be used the
WPAD entry?

                Take it out the dhcp scope, (it don't work as it
should), and just use a DNS A record for wpad.

                Each client does have FWC installed (hard-coded to the
ISA WINS name (instead of DNS i've now realized); but i also have
configured the WPAD o252 in my domain.local DHCP scope .. ), and then
after I installed it, I proceeded to the 'Web Browser' tab and hit
'Configure Now', which changed the old ISASERVER:8080 config in the
client's Internet Options to the configuration script.

                 

                After reading the 'Client Overview' in the Help section,
I'm pretty sure that I just have FWC users which would also be Web Proxy
users, so therefore the report should be working... yes?

                Read up on client types. The help file has excellent
information on this. If it's authentication you'd like and tracking by
username rather than IP address, then you'll need the firewall client.

                 

                As far as what the #7 entry represents you'll have to
consult your logs to see what t Client Typesdd

                \ hat user was doing.

                Anyone have any idea on why the IP of the machine is
showing up instead of the user?  Has it anything to do with using a
config. script in IE/Mozilla instead of proxy and port?  Reason I ask
is, the report is misleading if you use DHCP, as it looks like the User
(IP) is being stored as the PK, and hence if that IP get's re-assigned
to a diff. user (as it has in my case), it doesn't reset the totals.

                 

                As well, anyone have any ideas of where I can find out
where the IP in #7 is coming from?  Is it possible that it's a spammer
server and the ISA report is considering traffic on port 25 as well?
(this is an SBS box).
