Hi All,
Can anybody recommend a firewall/router that has the ability to URL/WEB
filter based on active directory (using LDAP ???) to use with my sbs 2008
prem. (I Want to avoid ISA !)
I have previously used Draytek 2820n but I believe URL filtering on these
cant be done on a IP/user/group, it is a global setting.

TIA
Gary D

Calyptix Access Enforcer...has an AD Connector which comes with it
All provides great UTM functionality

WatchGuard with XTM subscription.

A Core X550e or higher is great. The Edge units have the same functionality,
but their download speeds with everything enabled aren't good enough for my
use.

If you have a small office without a server room, the Core X550e may not be
for you as it is fairly loud.

Gregg's pet peeves:

First of all, what does a peeve look like, and why would anyone want one as
a pet?

Peeve #1: Apostrophes: when in doubt, leave them out! You will be correct
more often than not.

Its = Belonging to it. For example, "Look at the sky. Its color is blue."
It's = It is. For example, "It's hot today."
It's = It has. For example, "It's been nice talking to you."
Its' = completely incorrect usage. Stop it!


Peeve #2: Your vs. You're
"Your" means belonging to you, as in, "It's your truck."
"You're" means "You are." Example, you're probably about ready to throttle
me for this peeve!

According to this page
http://www.watchguard.com/products/edge-e/detailed-specs.asp the firewall
throughput is the same for the X10, X20 and X55.
