We have several clients that access our network via Microsoft RDS into a Terminal Server. We are having difficulties managing the internet access from these users, as Websense just seems to allocate the access of a random user and governing policy. I have found a KB item in relation to this (Article Number: 000002309) but it is only for up to version 7.1, and none of the suggested fixes are suitable to our environment.
Is there any updates on this issue now we are on 7.8?
Thanks
Hello, having an issue where Websense is blocking or delaying enough to cause a 502 or 505 error when trying to access reports in the Bloomberg to go software. We have tried adding all known domains to the non-proxied connections list, and that did not resolve the issue. The requests are still being proxied and although they are allowed it appears the filtering time is causing the browser to report the page unavailable. Disabling/uninstalling of the Websense client results in the pages displaying correctly. Occasionally/rarely, with the client will load.
Does anyone have any experience with using the Bloomberg to go application and Websense cloud security?
Thanks
I am licensed for Websense Express. I am in the process of retiring the old MS Server 2003s.
Will Express run on MS Server 2012 or 2008?
Thanks,

Hello,
I am currently blocking the "Viral Video" category in my Websense policy and expected videos like the new Taylor Swift's Bad Blood to be blocked. However, it looks like this video is classified as "Social Web - Youtube" instead of "Viral Video" by Websense.
Can someone provide me with a explanation on how Websense categorizes videos as "Viral Video".
Thanks!
We have a triton unified security centre 7.8.3, We use the web security product. Is this available to upgrade to version 8? I can only find reference to triton security gateway or appliance.
I have been a long time user of Websense. Due to an issue with the Websense Network Monitoring Agent I recently upgraded from version 7.4 to version 7.8.4
While I was able to get the upgrade installed with no issues, I have spent the last hour searching for any sort of detail administration / configuration guide.
Does anyone know if such a thing exist?
Only thing I am able to find is a 34 page doc that gets the app 'initially' configured.
Am i the only one who cannot find or does this no longer exist?
Any help is GREATLY appreciated!
Thanks

Hi,
My evaluation license has expired a couple of days ago (Cloud security).
Now I have purchased 400 user license and want to activate the license to my existing portal as we already did AD synchronization. How can I get my user name enabled to activate license. Request you to suggest.
I am unable to login into my websense web portal to activate the license.
PIN Number is: 343701.
Thanks in advance.
Thanks and regards,

We are getting a warning that we are approaching our subscription limit. Is there a report we can look at that shows which specific device websense is monitoring so we can make sense of why we are reaching this limit?
This warning does not make sense to us. Any guidance or ideas to help us, I would be happy to hear from you. And would there be any way to reset a counter half way thru the day? We have 2 shifts in our organization, so I'm wondering if this explains some of the issue.
Hi All,
We are currently running Websense 7.5.1 and MS ISA 2004 on the same server. We want to stop using ISA 2004. Can someone tell me the steps to removing ISA 2004 and how that will impact the use if Websense 7.5.1?
The domain is a Server 2008 R2 Active Directory domain. Websense is running on a MS Server 2003 server. Our firewall is a Cisco ASA 5510.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks, CHA Helpdesk
Running version 7.8.4 on Server 2008 R2 Standard, standalone
Full error message:
The management console cannot connect to the primary Policy Server. The version is correct but Policy Server cannot be reached. There are no available secondary Policy Servers with the proper version.
Please make sure there is at least one Policy Server running whose version matches the management console version, and network communication is possible between them. To attempt to restart the primary Policy Server, click Restart.
Anything I can try?
I've appliance V5000 G2 R2, I want to install websecurity content gateway. i read that i must install webfilter and policy server before content gateway. I've these components installed already on the appliance.
does the content gateway component can be installed on the same appliance with the other two components, or I shall install it on another server, like microsoft windows server 2012 R2 or Redhat Linux?
Hey guys,
Our desktop group has re-imaged a computer. When they do this they use an admin account. Every time they work on someone's machine they use this admin account. Well when a user gets their machine back they usually get the block page and it shows that they are using the admin account that the desktop group uses. Usually all I have them do is enter their account back in and it's good after that. Well this time it will let the user get through for the 12 hours but the next day it's back on that admin account even after she logs in with her creds. I've had her reboot her machine a few times and that's still not fixing it.
Does anyone know where Websense is looking for the creds at? If I can find where it's looking, maybe that will help me figure this problem out. Anyone else ever had this issue before?
Thanks,
Daniel
Or move it to another forum where it belongs?
Good Morning,
Is it still possible to show reports on individual users if we decide to add Websense clients based on OU rather than domain user account?
Example:
I want to see what Jane Doe in Accounting has been surfing, but I've only added one client in Websense, the "Accounting Users" OU.
Thank you,
Please understand that I am not a network expert by any means so I am asking for assistance. We are currently a 7.5 Standalone Triton filter. My Network Team is wanting to change my current connection from copper to fiber. Is this possible? If so will I only need to change the NIC in our configuration to send the Block on the NIC that the fiber is connected to?

Our higher-ups is wanting some reports emailed to them on a schedule. I created a few custom reports I thought I'd toss at them, but I notice I can no longer save or schedule reports! The icons at the top between "Create a new report" and the refresh report buttons are all greyed out!
