Again; why are you building the wpad script by hand?
ISA / TMG do a fine job of this all by themselves.

Ok, so do I just make a wpad file that points all users to the firewall and 
then the settings there control what happens?

 

If I did still wanted to create my own wpad what is the issue with IE9?

 

Thanks

You can effect the same controls using ISA/TMG proxy setting.

Hi,

I am having some issues getting my wpad file to work with all OS’s and versions 
of IE.

 

This is what I have setup:

 

function FindProxyForURL(url, host)

{

                // If hostname with no dots, e.g. http://intranet, go direct

                if (isPlainHostName(host)) return "DIRECT";

 

                // Resolve hostname to IP address, if matches go direct

                if (isInNet(host, "172.0.0.0", "255.0.0.0")) return "DIRECT";

 

                // If internal DNS name go direct

                if (dnsDomainIs(host, ".domain.local")) return "DIRECT";

 

                // All other request to go via proxy server. It that fails try 
direct

                return "PROXY fw1.domain.local:8080; DIRECT";

}

 

This works with Windows XP and IE8 and I am able to get to both 172.22.0.0 and 
172.24.0.0 networks.

 

Trying it on Windows 7 with IE9 though most of it works but I can’t get to 
172.24.0.0 network. It tries to go via the firewall and fails.

 

Is there and issue with IE9, any feedback on a better wpad file?

 

Thanks

 

Andy
