Getting Live Messenger to work through the Web Appliance?

sssstew

Hi All

Just taken over some admin of the Sophos Web Appliance which is new to me, ive used Websense before, but im trying to configure the web appliance to allow Live Messenger (for us in IT), but cannot figure out how to get it to work, the messenger client just fails to sign in each time.


So far i have created an Additional Policy called Internet Access Full which my user account is a member of which has most of the site categories set to allow, including chat which i thought would fix it but we still cannot sign in on the application.

Is there any special config anywhere for this?

Thanks

Stewart

    Thanks Tom,

    We are using AD authentication but the "Authenticate all requests against AD" tick box is not ticked.  Additionally i have also unticked it in the list of applications here, even though this doesnt affect it because the above tick box is not ticked.

    But your comment about configuring live messenger with AD credentials worked for me, i am able to sign in now.

    Great thanks Tom, appreciate it :)
