Re: [FW-1] websense versus surfcontrol



Title: RE: [FW-1] websense versus surfcontrol

Peter;

Could you please expand as to what you mean by "its is not as feature ric to install as a UFP product" ? We have many more features in our 4.x product than 3.x. Among them: LDAP support, UFP caching, NG support, NTLM, transparent ID.....

We ran websense 3.11 using UFP , but since version 4 of Websense it is
not
as feature rich to install as a UFP product.
Checkpoint security server can be slow , I have ended up running several
copies of this.
3.11 is very stable I takes non or little administration.
My set-up is

        User Authentication to f/w using radius/ secure-id
        rules base set-up on a user bases to allow different access (
can't
do this in version 4 )
        Fw-1 proxy chains onto another proxy for caching and virus
checking.


        Regards

        PD
