Re: NT User Access/ Checkpoint FW1

Is there any way to limit a user's internet rights through an NT login?
Based on what I know so far, if I've got a group of 100 users...  The only
way to exclude or include a user would be by using IP address?  If the
group of 100 is on the same hub using DHCP to assign addresses, or frequent
desk changes are a fact of life, the delegation of internet rights using IP
addresses is no longer valid.

My question is, is there any way to assign rights through Checkpoint FW1
using an NT Login?

Not directly, but a here a two work-arounds:

1. Use a RADIUS server, that can proxy NT-logins, like Shiva's Access Manager or Cisco's Secure ACS (both running on 
NT).

or

2. Let your internal users connect to a MS-Proxy-server. Only allow the proxyserver's IP outgoing http/ftp through FW-1.
