Hi
yes it can. There are 2 steps.
1. On the general tab of the WWW proxy server configuration, you need to select applicable authentication methods, e.g. NTLM, or Basic. If you choose Java based login, there is another step.
2. In the policies in the WWW proxy server, policy must require users to be authenticated. To do this, normally you select "are ignored" for default policies, and add a recipient, selecting "users must be authenticated" if you are using NTLM, or "User may be assumed" if you are using Basic auth.
If you selected Java authentication, you need to make sure that the Remote Control Service is accessible to the Java client that is spawned in the browser window. This means the Remote Control Service bindings must include the network adapter's IP address. Default installation of WinGate only binds the Remote Control Service to the localhost interface.

Hi,
We have used wingate for about 10 years now but only just recently enabled NTLM authentication in active directory.
It seems that every time a user accesses a webpage they havent been on before it is asking them to login all the time.
Im using the transpartent prxoy and ens.Ive found a work around which is to still use a proxy address pointing to the wingate server which is not ideal as i didnt want to use the proxy settings in i.e anymore.
Also I have made an internet group in active directory so that users need to be a member of that group to access the internet,but i find i have to add all the users to that group and it doesnt seem to allow you to add another group to it like sales group for example to the internet group.Im i doing something wrong?.
Another annoying thing ive noticed is every time i make a change to a user or group in AD i have to snyc manually with wingate and its not automatic.
Is there any solution to the problems im having.
Many thanks
Steve
