Sophos web appliance and Skype

Sarah77

Hi there everyone.

I'm trying to use Skype in my organisation through the Sophos web appliance but I'm not having much luck.

Sophos are telling me that they "do not support proxying Skype through the Sophos Web Appliance". Skype can't give me a list of https websites or IP addresses to add the the scanning exemption list.

Has anyone else managed this because I need to get this working. I can't just bypass the proxy server for Skype, what's the point of having a proxy server if you do that !!!

Surely someone else has had this issue??? Help please.

Thanks

Sarah

    Thanks TomA for your reply.

    The WA is in Explicit mode.

    As i stated, the HTTPS scanning is off. I also noticed that this seemed to block log me in as well when turned on.

    Our support has opened a port on our firewall in the 1xxxx range and i have entered this in to skype as the port number to use, but with no joy. I have also tryed manually stating the proxy, with and without auth, with and without the domain and every combo i could think of.

    I've also added skype.com and skypeassets.com as trusted sites in the local site list as per taekwanleap's suggesion.

    any other idea's?

    Thanks
