WWW Service - HTTPS Policies

Postby SBD » May 25 11 9:19 am

Hi there,

I'm trying to prevent users from accessing specific file extensions (URL resource ends with *.xxx).
This is working great for the HTTP protocol, but have no effect on the HTTPS protocol for some reason...

Any explanation for that?

Thanks,
Shay.

P.S I have no authentication, the policies are for "Everyone", and defaults are ignored

If the client is manually configured to use the proxy server you can block HTTPS access using the server name however the path (everything after the server name) is encrypted so we can't do anything with that.

There is quite a good forum post that goes into this in much more detail here:
