Hi,
Well, I work in an organization. My desktop computer is joined to the domain so that I can access all the resoucres (Internet / Prining, computers, etc..).
I have a personal laptop which is not joined to the domain. Previousley, I connect my laptop to the network and change the proxy setting then I will be asked for username and password on the network. By entering this information, I would be able to use the Internet.
Few days ago, WebSense system implemented to manage Internet privilages. Now, when I access any other computer, sharing or any Intranet application, I just provide my username and password to logon. But when requesting Internet, It won’t ask for username.
I have read some tips about this kind of problem. Then I changed the computer name as the domain name so my username looks like this: COMPUTERNAME\USERNAME. Then I set the password exactly as the same account on the network. By this, I was able to access any web application or computers with my network account.
The problem that, I still couldn’t pass WebSense gate and didn’t ask even for the username. I tried quickly to use MultinetworkManager, but still couldn’t pass to Internet.
The offical and only true solution I have is to join the domain which I don’t want to.
Same case is applied to some consultants visit the organization with thier own laptops. They have network accounts but the laptops are not joined to the domain.
Both cases are same situation. Any idea what to do?
Thanks,
