1924.0. "Possible Bug on web proxy ( Purveyor ) on AFWNT" by NNTPD::"[email protected]" (Chris Lingerfeldt) Fri Apr 18 1997 16:14

I have just installed AFWNT ver 1.1 on Windows NT 3.51.
I have setup certain users to be authenticated by the firewall 
to use the web proxy.  When we reboot the firewall
the web proxy does not reject any users.  I can
stop and start the web proxy servers then the web
proxy works correctly.  

Thanks,

Chris

1924.1Work around for Web Proxy bugNNTPD::"[email protected]"Chris LingerfeldtFri Apr 18 1997 18:0930
I have created a temporary work around where I created another
service which stops and starts the services.  The script
\dfw\redoweb.bat looks as follows:

net stop "Web Proxy"
net start "Web Proxy"

To create another service I add a key into the registry
under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services
called restartweb

I added the following values as follows:

DependOnGroup     REG_MULTI_SZ          VALUEACTUALLEFTBLANK
DependOnService   REG_MULTI_SZ          Tcpip
                                        Afd
                                        Purveyor
DisplayName       REG_SZ                Restart Web Proxy
ErrorControl      REG_DWORD             0x1
ImagePath         REG_EXPAND            c:\dfw\redoweb.bat
ObjectName        REG_SZ                LocalSystem
Start             REG_DWORD             0x2
Type              REG_DWORD             0X10

The work around does generate two errors in the Windows NT
System Event Log but it does produce a temporary cure for
the bug.
