Hello,

Our network admin had installed ISA server, so without
ISA client : impossible to access Internet (WWW, FTP, POP3 ...etc)

Is there any soft that I can install on my linux PC,
so I can acess the Internet ?

Thanks in advance.

Most browsers like Mozilla Firefox on the Linux system will prompt for the ISA username and password.
To make life easier for me, I installed a Squid ( proxy server on Linux and made it a child proxy of ISA using a domain service account (to prevent the annoying password prompts)

As for getting an ISA client, I don't think you will find one for Linux.
You may look at running the ISA client under Wine (
Hope that helps...

The only thing you can do here is set up a destination set on ISA that doesn't have any restrictions.

If you don't have control over ISA server, then you can't do this.
 
I'm running Fedora Core 3 and Firefox 1.0 has no problems getting through. It asked for credentials the first time and saved them and hasn't asked again. I use the IP of my ISA box for proxy setting, not the fqdn, and ISA is running in integrated authentication mode.
