How it works Synchronized User ID ?

Hi Edgar,

I think very well. However, the disadvantage is that if an user only locks a desktop unfortunately has blocked access to the Internet and subsequently has to log out and log back in or authorize via the captive portal.

But if it logs off completely and then logs back in, everything works reliably.

Are you sure about the lock party? Did not test this in my labs but as far as i know,  the heartbeat should exist even if the user locks the PC. 

So my client was locked since Friday and is still logged in with HB to XG. 

Hi,

Last weekend upgraded to 17.5 and no AD server configured, only endpoint at Sophos Central.

How to configure, for example, web filtering user based using Synchronized User ID?

Hi,

You need a AD Server.
