Can you put one of these clients outside the firewall? Directly on the
internet and test to verify it's not an issue with your firewall/proxy
server?

OK, so here is a weird one.  XP clients.  The one I know of for sure is
SP2 and IE6 but reports are from IE7 and SP3 as well.

 

This happens for the clients online insurance web applications, as well as
Gmail.  I am going to refer mostly to Gmail when describing the symptoms
for ease of the description.

 

So, the client cant log into certain web sites.  Types in username /
password and it just hangs.  Or request times out.  So I figure OK,
Install FireFox.  The EXACT same behavior in Firefox.  I log into the
machine as the domain admin (how has never logged into this box before)
the Exact same behavior.  The page will not log me into Gmail.  I tried
the clients OWA, as well as mine, and it works just fine in both IE and
Firefox.

 

So, its not an SSL problem, Its not a browser problem (I installed FF),
its not a date and time problem.  I rebooted the firewall and changed the
MTU.  Still the same results.

 

Windows Update Errors out as well (I think this is a big clue).  The
windows update error is 0x80072EFE.

 

No errors in the event logs.

 

Anyone have any ideas here?

 

Thanks

J
