Hi,
One of the sites I look after has had an incident a couple of months back where
a staff member sent a fairly explict porn comic to a customer instead of a
friend, when the email address was very close & picked the wrong one from the
recently used list.
One granddaddy hell of a hulla-a-baloo ensured.
The board has now decreed that all porn related domain, sex sites, popup add
sites, gambling sites etc etc be blocked, from access to the PC on the internal
LAN. Using the lists available below this is fairly easy accomplished.
I do however have some concern of the effect on performance, if I add block
list for something like 450K domains, 150K URL's, etc, will this have a
significant effect on the ISA servers performance ?
I've done it on my play server at home, the effect is somewhat noticable but
quite tollerable, but then it's just one user accessing the web, very different
from a site with 100 users. Some of these are fairly web active users.
I have little doubt, that no matter what the effect on performance, they are
going to say "DO IT", but before I do anything that will kill performance on
the ISA, I'd like to give them some sort of heads up of, "This is the likely
effect it will have on web browsing". The target server is a dual processor P3
1.4G with 2 G ram, just running W3K with all patches up to date, and ISA2004
also with all patches up to date.
Any feeling for the impact on performance ?
Is it likely to adversly affect mail server publishing ?
