In fact, it's what our novell administrator has done, i.e create an access rule that allows the IP address of that machine to the site it needs to reach. Then check the "autnehticate only when user attempts to access restricted site" and put that rule on top of the others. It works for our servers but several users, including myself, have problems navigating a few sites including hotmail, yahoo Gael "Jesse Pretorius" <preycor@myrealbox.com> wrote on 02/08/2004 15.42.33:

Authentication has been implemented on our Novell BorderManager proxy servers I've setup the proxy in yast providing username and password but before being giving me the list of updates, there is the following error:

BorderManager's login page is proprietary in a way that does not provide an authentication request in a way that YaST expects it.

AFAIK the only way around it would be to set the NBM to allow your server's IP address to go through without requiring authentication.
