I can't get ITunes to sync through Forefront TMG with Websense 7.6 filter. I keep getting the following denied connection in forefront… Denied Connection 30/08/2012 11:21:01 Log type: Firewall service Status: An ingoing packet was dropped because its destination address does not exist on the system, and no appropriate forwarding interface exists. Rule: None - see Result Code Source: Internal (10.0.1.40:5353) Destination: External (224.0.0.251:5353) Protocol: mac Additional information 1. Number of bytes sent: 0 Number of bytes received: 0 2. Processing time: 0ms Original Client IP: 10.0.1.40 The problems are… 1) I’m not even sure what the message is telling me? 2) I’m not sure it is even a Forefront TMG problem if I set up a new user in active directory in a folder without any group policies applied to the user account it works fines. And I can add the new user into any security groups. 3) If I URL query all of the different URLs that ITunes uses they are all permitted. I’m out of ideas on what to try…. I’m sort of going along with it being a folder redirection something or other type thingy problem at the moment! If anybody has any suggestions or better yet, fix this problem, you will be amazing for ever!! Thanks Jem

Hi all, In an earlier post I asked how it was possible to setup web monitoring in Forefront TMG 2010. With this we have decided that at least in principal that TMG is the best option for our school. However I’m having a hard time with the Licencing…. We would need access to the URL Filtering feature and filter lists and I’m trying to figure out is this an additional cost for us? We already pay out Schools Agreement and get with that Forefront TMG Enterprise so does this cover the URL lists or do we need the extra CAL mentioned on the Microsoft website? Thanks, James

Hi Everybody. Currently at my school, I have about 1,000 devices on the system, which are a mixture of just about everything that can access the internet. Currently, I'm running TMG 2010 - which obviously is now EOL. I'm looking at SOPHOS UTM as a replacement. Currently our web filtering is, and will still be, provided by our Smoothie. I am looking at the SG 210, which is the first 1U model. I need a box with at least 5NICS - so don't know whether this is plain overkill (as it's not inspecting all web traffic), so if that's the case would I even get away with the SG 125? We have a 200Mb/s internet connection I have 3 main internal networks Main - ~600 computers Second network - ~400 iPads DMZ for web server hosting Cheers for your advice. Paul.
