Hello, My employer uses Websense for Filtering & some MS Proxy variant for all of our internet access. Typically we're required to enter all of this information in to our desktops when connecting.
Now, I was attempting to set up WPAD(web proxy auto detection), and encountered some strange results. If I had WPAD.dat point to a squid server running on the desktop which forwarded to a parent proxy being this MS proxy, it skips websense! I wasn't sure what to make of this, and thought maybe websense went down. I tried again using their proxy settings, and websense was for sure still working. I tried manually entering my squid settings, and not doing WPAD, and again websense has been skipped. Can someone explain why this is happening? I mean i'm not going to argue my ability to access my gmail at work or anything, but I'd like to understand why. Mario
