<H2>Important Configuration Information</H2>
|
|
|
|
<P>
|
|
The following things need to be done before using the Internet
|
|
Access Gateway service:
|
|
<UL>
|
|
<LI><B>Disable IP routing.</B> If your internal network runs TCP/IP,
|
|
the gateway server's Enable IP Routing check box should not be
|
|
checked. Disabling IP Routing prevents unauthorized Internet packets
|
|
from infiltrating your network. (The Enable IP Routing check box
|
|
is located in the Advanced Microsoft TCP/IP Configuration dialog
|
|
box. Access this through Control Panel's Network applet.)
|
|
<LI><B>At the client computers, select Internet Access Gateway
|
|
servers</B>. Use the Gateway applet located in the Control Panel
|
|
to specify which gateway servers the client should use for Internet
|
|
access. (The Setup program asks the user to specify this at installation,
|
|
but this applet lets you change it.) In this applet, you can also
|
|
elect not to use a gateway server at all, if the client computer
|
|
has a direct Internet connection. If more than one Internet Access
|
|
Gateway server is specified, the order of the servers in the applet's
|
|
list box does not make any difference because the client will
|
|
select a server at random.
|
|
<LI><B>Use the Internet Server Manager to configure the Internet
|
|
Access Gateway service.</B> See the next section.
|
|
</UL>
|
|
|
|
<H2><A NAME="DDE_LINK1"></A><A NAME="DDE_LINK2"></A>Using Internet
|
|
Server Manager to Configure the Gateway Service</H2>
|
|
|
|
<P>
|
|
After installing the Internet Access Gateway service, you use
|
|
the Internet Server Manager to configure it for your corporate
|
|
network. The Internet Server Manager provides the following pages
|
|
to assist you in configuring the gateway service. At the bottom
|
|
of each page is an OK button and an Apply button. The OK button
|
|
applies changes to all of the pages to which you made changes.
|
|
The Apply button does the same thing, but does not dismiss the
|
|
property sheet.
|
|
<H3>The Service Page</H3>
|
|
|
|
<P>
|
|
Use the Service page to set general configuration options:
|
|
<OL>
|
|
<LI>In the Service Administrator section, type the name and email
|
|
address of the person who administers the Internet Access Gateway
|
|
server.
|
|
<LI>In the Maximum Connections field, select the number of clients
|
|
that can be connected to the Internet Access Gateway server simultaneously.
|
|
The practical limit depends upon your gateway server's memory
|
|
and configuration. The theoretical range is 1 to 32,767.
|
|
<LI>Check the CERN Proxy Server check box if you want the Internet
|
|
Access Gateway service to act as a CERN proxy server for TCP/IP
|
|
clients.
|
|
<LI>In the Comment field, enter a general comment describing the
|
|
Internet Access Gateway server that is being administered. This
|
|
will appear in the main view of the Internet Manager report view.
|
|
<LI>Choose the Current Sessions button to view the names of the
|
|
users that are connected, the computer name of the computer the
|
|
user is using to connect, and the Hours:Minutes:Seconds of connect
|
|
time. Use the Refresh button to refresh this list.
|
|
</OL>
|
|
|
|
<H3>The Permissions Page</H3>
|
|
|
|
<P>
|
|
Use the Permissions page to grant and view access rights to users
|
|
and groups. The access rights are as follows: FTP Read, FTP Write,
|
|
FTP Read & Write, Gopher, WWW. For each access right, the
|
|
list box lists the users and groups that have that right. You
|
|
choose the Add button to grant a right to a user or group. Use
|
|
the Remove button to remove the access right for the selected
|
|
user or group.
|
|
<P>
|
|
When you choose the Add button, it brings up the Add Users and
|
|
Groups dialog box. The List Names From list box allows you to
|
|
select the domain or computer name from which you can select the
|
|
users and groups. The computer you are currently administering
|
|
will be listed first in the list box. When you select a computer
|
|
or domain, by default it shows groups only. Groups are generally
|
|
easier for network administrators to manage. To show users, choose
|
|
the Show Users button.
|
|
<P>
|
|
Select a name or group and choose the Add button to add it to
|
|
the Rights dialog box. Choose Members to view the members in the
|
|
selected group. Choose Search to search for user or group names.
|
|
<H3>The Disk Cache Page</H3>
|
|
|
|
<P>
|
|
The Disk Cache page contains a list of directory entries and their
|
|
cache size in megabytes. (This is similar to the Directories page
|
|
in the FTP, WWW, Gopher services.) Use the Add button to add a
|
|
directory entry and specify its cache size. You can type in a
|
|
directory name, or browse for a directory if the service you are
|
|
administering is running on the local computer. Use the Remove
|
|
and Edit Properties buttons to remove and edit the selected property.
|
|
<H3>The Logging Page</H3>
|
|
|
|
<P>
|
|
Check the Enable Logging check box to activate logging for the
|
|
Internet Access Gateway service. Once you have turned logging
|
|
on by checking the Enable Logging box, you must specify how the
|
|
service will log activity. For services that are not heavily used,
|
|
you can log activity to a simple text file by selecting the Log
|
|
to File option. You can increase logging frequency to suit your
|
|
site's activity. Log files names begin with two letters that indicate
|
|
the service. The next six characters are the date the log was
|
|
created using the month, day, year format.
|
|
<P>
|
|
If your Internet Access Gateway service sees a lot of activity
|
|
and you have a SQL server, choose the Log to SQL/ODBC Database
|
|
option to ensure that heavily used services are logged in adequate
|
|
detail. Logging to a database enables the data to be more easily
|
|
evaluated and manipulated for reporting purposes. Ensure that
|
|
your network has the appropriate ODBC resource (a SQL server),
|
|
correctly configured with a data source name (DSN) and table,
|
|
to accept the Microsoft Internet Server logging activity.
|
|
<P>
|
|
To log to a local or network file:
|
|
<OL>
|
|
<LI>Choose the Log to File option.
|
|
<LI>Ensure that Automatically open new log check box is checked,
|
|
or you will be prompted every time Microsoft Internet Server creates
|
|
a new log.
|
|
<LI>Choose the preferred logging frequency and location for log
|
|
files.
|
|
</OL>
|
|
|
|
<P>
|
|
To log to an ODBC database:
|
|
<OL>
|
|
<LI>Choose the Log to SQL/ODBC Database option.
|
|
<LI>Supply the DSN, Table, User Name, and password.
|
|
</OL>

|
|
|
<H3>The Filters Page</H3>
|
|
|
|
<P>
|
|
The Filters page helps you control which Internet servers can
|
|
be accessed by network clients. You can choose to allow access
|
|
to all Internet sites except for those you specify in the list
|
|
box; or you can choose to deny access to all Internet sites except
|
|
for those you specify in the list box. The domain filter list
|
|
is applied to all users using the Internet Access Gateway service.
