Unblock a website in Sophos Central Admin

neckbeard

Firstly, if this isnt in the right area please move - or advise and i will fix.

 

I have a website http://embla.com.au/ which is incorrectly blocked and gives me the default message of 

 

Website Blocked
  • Location: embla.com.au
  • Your organization's policy prohibits access to websites categorized as Alcohol & Tobacco.
  • Return to the page you were previously viewing.

 

My understanding is I have to goto Global Settings > Website Management. Then add a tag for the website in question, with it set to Alcohol & Tobacco.

Then i return to Endpoint protection > policies > web control > settings and add my new tag to 'Control sites tagged in Website Management' setting to 'allow'

 

Unfortunately this isnt working - have i missed something?

 

Thanks in advance

    Go to endpoint protection on your SOPHOS central. (not Global settings)

     

    And open Web Management.

     

    The site can be recategorized there.

    Then go and update the connection from your endpoint security,

     

    Should work like a charm!

    Hey, i´ve got also a problem with our intranet. The clients should not be able to connect to any websites except our Intranet.

    so i add a the page like intranet.company.local to Endpoint Protection - Website-Management and the page appear.

    But if i click on a link the next page is still blocked ( intranet.comany.local/management/mangement.pdf )

    i tried also to add the link as intranet.company.local/* but it dont work..
