Hi,

In ISA 2006 is it possible to block the html file uploads for certain file extensions. ?

For example, i dont want users to upload files in thier webmail and other website with file extensions .exe, .tz and i want to allow only files with extensions like .txt, .doc.

Thanks in advance

You should be able to apply a HTTP filtering policy to outbound web access rules for that file type...

Cheers

JJ

Hi JJ,

Thanks a lot for your reply.

Just a quick check, the configuration stated in technet is for ISA 2004, is it the same for ISA 2006 as well ? . I dont have previous experinece in ISA, pls dont mistake my question.

Kindly advise,

Yeah, same concepts for ISA2k6; I don't think they bothered to update the versioning.

Shout if you get stuck...

Cheers

When i add ".EXE" in Extensions. Users can not download .exe files from website, but they still can upload .exe files in their webmail.

It depends on how the webmail applications works I guess...

I think Extensions filtering is only match URL.
If you add ".EXE" to extensions tab, users can not download http://www.webserver.com/abc.exe
But when users upload ".exe" file, the URL is not ended with ".exe". So users still can upload their files.

I used another software called active wall to solve this problem. Thank you.
