Giving the access to Gmail to internal user

We have ISA 2006, we blocked all the mail sites through Access rules. If any person wants the mail site access we will create the separate rule & give the access to his/her machine IP address, so that he/she can access mail site.
 Is there any mechanism to allow the access to only to windows user account not the IP address of the machine?  Or Is any other alternative to do this?

Hi Sheikh,
Yes, we have Domain Environment. We want to give site access to only particular users. Now we are giving the access to site through user IP address of the machine not the domain user account.
Is it possible in ISA 2006 to give access to domain user rather than machine IP and How can we do in ISA?
Where you are creating the group denywebmail  Is it on Domain controller or on ISA Server?
hi ksiva83

yes it possible in ISA 2006 to give access to domain user, all u need to do is to create a group "denywebmai" in Isa 2006 and put all domain user in it (or those user that u dont want to use webmail). create a rule that deny all mail site to this group. and if any user want to use webmail just remove his user id from this group.

As other choice you can create the same group "denywebmai" in Active directory , but in this case you must create an group in isa2006 add this AD group "denywebmai" into ISA2006 group.

reply if anything is unclear :)

Thanks

Hi Sheikh,

Can you help me how to create the group & push the domain users into it. As i can only create the Computer Object with IP address. I am not able to find the  access/import domain user to rule which we create in ISA..

Thanks
