RE: [FW1] User Auth for Web/FTP etc. Access



If Telemate did not change the way to track authenticated users you will
have to manually manage the database of users. I remember I created
departments a subdirectories and moved user names into the appropriate
department. Everything else was OK.

Subject: [FW1] User Auth for Web/FTP etc. Access



Looking for comments on various auth methods for web/ftp access.

We have locked down access by allowing only certain addresses/protocols
etc.

However, we do not authenticate outbound web surfing/ftp.

Now I have heard various comments in the past:-

"Don't auth outbound - you will only have contstant headaches......"

"You must auth outbound for security/logging/accountability......"

Now I can appreciate both sides of the argument but we are considering
replacing our SecureView (ropey) with Telemate (looks great) but this will
really need user info in the reports to be useful and so I am again
contemplating user auth for web/ftp access.

So...questions:-

1. Comments ?
2. How does this impact on Secure Remote users - can I reasonably use just
one login per person regardless of whether they are remote or internal ?
3. Performance impact ?
4. Gotchas ?


TIA

Tim
