ohhhhhhhhh

I was struggling since a month..... Ppl in big companies are using Microsoft's ISA server which really works as CyberRoam but its far far better (in theory at least).....

But, as usual it supports just windows and just Internet Explorer... If you are using something like Linux and like firefox, they do not understand ISA headers and things like that....

So, working on Linux in windows-friendly-environment is like a nightmare. For the firstime, I felt so... I tried a lot... I was able to access from firefox but that keeps asking for username:passwd as and when and now and then.... mentally harassing me...

On top of that, you cant access ssh and git and eclipse and etc when they require to make internet connection... ha ha ha.......shit!!! I tried capturing packet through ethereal and what not !!! but no luck !!

At the end, found a superb doc...
http://www.faqs.org/docs/Linux-HOWTO/Web-Browsing-Behind-ISA-Server-HOWTO.html
and apparently it gave me relief from all pains......

I hope this link will not go away... cant copy here since he has some copyrights.... and i want ppl to look at his doc as well... :)
