Smoothwall Express 3 Windows Authentication

[TMODAlpha]

Hi all,

 

Currently having a play with smoothwall express. Got advproxy installed and its working great with the URL filter, SARG etc. I got LDAP working, but for this you must authenticate every session.

 

I've been trying to get Windows authentication working along with Windows integrated authentication.

 

I've the domain formatted as domain.local

PDC as dc1.domain.local which using the IP tools is resolved and pings

 

When prompted to authenticate i've tried:

 

• domain\user
  
• user@domain
  
• [email protected]
  

 

So far none work, and when using integrated authentication is will take a while to process then give an access denied page.

 

Any ideas? Is there anything I need to do within AD for this to work, because i'd expect it to allow me to input a username in the settings but there is nowhere for this.

 

Thanks

Advanced Proxy add-on for IPCop and SmoothWall

 

might be of some use although some of it is a little old.

smoothwall express is soon to release V3.1 which has alot of mods of 3 built into it

Thanks for the reply. Already looked at that, but the specifics of how things should be formatted are a little vague.

 

I had a look at the RC, but it didnt install very well. Might have a play with that now.

there is an RC3/4 release which there is a link for download actually inside the forums, however i dont think ADV proxy has been ported to 3.1 yet..

Ah right, I was hoping that would be one of the features included.

 

Will check it out now.

@TMODAlpha I'm busy playing around with Smoothwall Express 3 at the moment and have hit the same problem - did you ever figure it out?

Nope, ended up just using LDAP in the end. It's a small number of users that are going to use it anyway so I decided that it wasn't worth the headache for integrated authentication.
