Re: Pop-up alert

["Jon Pastore" <jpastore () idetech net>]

I don't like the idea of controling traffic from the workstation I would
rather use squid (which I'm still in search of a good log analyzer that I
like) a proxy server for linux or similair application suitable for your
enviroment.  in a large production enviroment or an enviroment that you
intend to be scalable minimizing what needs to installed on the workstation
is important to me.

We write intranet software that runs small financial companies and it's a
web based application.  We only install Office, IE6sp1, and norton antivirus
enterprise client on the work stations they don't need anything else.  We
control everything else from the server side.

A little clarification:  Are you in control of the workstations that the
visitors are using - or are they supplying their own terminals?

If it is the first condition, and you only need to give them a description
of policies before they browse, then create a static homepage and disable
rights to change that homepage.  On that page you can list your guidelines.

If you want to actually control access to sites, SurfControl actually has a
pretty good product....

How can I have a pop-up open each time a user opens a web browser to warn of
misuse?  We installed a physically separate wireless network from our
internal network just for visitors to have internet access, and would like a
warning to pop up each time they open a web browser with show our Corporate
speal about misuse and they would have to acknowledge it with the click of a
button before being allowed access.  We were thinking about something like
Microsoft ISA 200 Server, but would prefer something that's easier to
implement and cheaper.  Let me know your thoughts.

Thanks,
Bill
