TMG load balance and publishing issues

Dear Experts,

I have some questions about publishing multiple services with TMG's ISP redundacny with load balancing:
We are using a single TMG 2010 server to protect our network and providing Internet connection to them. We manage our own domain providing the name service with the DNS server component installed on the TMG box and published it outside. We are using Exchange for mail service, as well we publish web sites too and terminal services via RDP. There wasn't any problem till today, when we got an other, separate Internet connection via a new different ISP. When I set ISP Redundancy to Load Balance I faced to a problem. The Internet connection works fine, but the partner SMTP's drop our letters, because they can not complete the reverse DNS check.
How can I set the TMG and/or the DNS to provide a correct mail publishing service? How should I set our DNS to provide access to our web sites and other services when one of the Internet connections brake down?
Thank you in advance!

Thomas


Issue with Microsoft Reputation Service (10.ds.mrs.microsoft.com host offline)

Dear TMG Community,

Since yesterday (22/1/14) a client of ours has been experiencing an issue with TMG and the Microsoft Reputation Service.

The following event is intermittently logged to the Application Log:

Event ID: 31524

"An error occurred while trying to communicate with the Microsoft Reputation Service server. If this Forefront TMG server is chained to an upstream server, verify that the WinHTTP proxy is set to localhost. If this issue persists, check that Internet connectivity is available."

Further troubleshooting has revealed an issue with one of the hosts behind the 10.ds.mrs.microsoft.com DNS record.

10.ds.mrs.microsoft.com --> 207.46.60.244 (HTTPS not working)

10.ds.mrs.microsoft.com --> 207.46.60.245 (HTTPS working)

10.ds.mrs.microsoft.com --> 65.55.74.113 (HTTPS working)

We experience an event each time TMG attempts to connect to 207.46.60.244. This is consistent across several ISPs/upstream DNS providers. For now, we've entered a static hosts file entry on the TMG servers to avoid the many SCOM alerts.

Could someone at Microsoft please look into this and advise once the issue is resolved.

Kind regards,

David Barrett

SharePoint Workspace not working through TMG

Hi,

I have exposed a SharePoint site collection called BrainBoosters through TMG. This is meant to be a secure connection for consultants who access the site externally. Access to the site is 100%. The only issue I am currently experiencing is that Workspace is not working externally only internally. We are using SharePoint Foundation 2010. Below is the error message on the client when WorkSpace option is clicked from within the browser. I have also included the Deny action taking place on TMG.

Your help would be very much appreciated.

Site-to-site routing(?) fails

Dear community!

I would like to ask you if you could help me configuring the TMG I have here.

The network topology:

                          External
                               |
                               |
Site1 <-  IPsec  ->  TMG    <- IPsec -> Site2
                               /\
                              /  \
                             /    \
                      Internal     DMZ

Internal: 192.168.201.0/24
DMZ: 192.168.151.0/24
Site1: 192.168.21.0/24
Site2: 192.168.202.0/24

All networks have their network objects created.

The problem is: I can see and ping everything from the Internal network,
but the he site1 and site2 can only see the Internal, nor the DMZ, nor eachother.

Network rules:
#1: All protected networks ROUTE All protected networks
#2: All protected networks NAT External.

Question: Is this good enough, or should I define all the route rules each-by-each?

I am not 100% sure if the TMG is the wheakest chain in the, but I have absolutely no monitoring abilites over the Brach office routers (FritzBoxes). So:
Question: Is there any way to monitor, os sniff into the traffic the TMG sends or receives on ove of the site-to-site connections?
Can I tap into and for example capture all the PING-s that were sent out or sent troughh the tunnen between TMG and Site1?This might be a relly dumb question, but sorry, I am stuggling with this for over a month now.

Firewall rules:
#1: Tonns of publishing rules.
#2:Allow all protocolls from All protected networks, to all protected networks. (Only until i find out what is wrong.)
#3: Standard Deny all from Everywhere

Question: Should there be a Demand dial connection in RRAs when you create a site-to-site connection?
Should the site-to-site VPN appear in the routing table?

Display time in GMT for network error access msgs

In Forefront TMG 2010 following error msg is displayed:

  • Error Code: 403 Forbidden. Forefront TMG denied the specified Uniform Resource Locator (URL). (12232)
  • IP Address: 192.168.10.200
  • Date: 1/23/2014 11:41:03 AM [GMT]

Can we change the GMT time zone to our local time zone so that troubleshooting will be easy for us.

Is it possible to change if yes then how?

error code 64

hI ALL,

I have read 20 - 30 threads about this error, but still i cant solve mine.

Since a few days this errors pops up by accessing sharepoint over https trough tmg 2010.

Clents from specific site loosing internet access randomly

Hi, this is happening for a while on one of our site. First, here's an overview of our setup

Image may be NSFW.
Clik here to view.

The problem is happening on clients of 12.x subnet. So randomly some clients can't browse internet sites. It happens for 30min-1h and then comes back by itself.

  • Doesn't seem to be a routing issue as when the problem is happening I can still ping internet IPs
  • Doesn't seem to be DNS related as I can resolve LAN and WAN DNS names from the problematic machine
  • I also looked at my 3 DNS servers and A records are correct ith the correct IP for the client PC
  • Browsing web sites on LAN is working fine
  • The problem NEVER happened on the other site (subnet 8.x)
  • When it's happening it's only to 1,2 or 3 clients and all others of the same subnet are working perfectly

On TMG log, we can see traffic between the client and TMG but with "SYN packet was dropped because it was sent by a source that does not have an established connection with the Forefront TMG computer." errors. As soon as the client PC becomes alive again, the log doesn't show these "non-SYN" errors again.

Block Https://youtube.com

  Hi Team,

   I want to block YouTube in my environment irrespective of the protocol it uses. I created an Access rule to block few websites, details provided below

Action: Deny, redirect to another site

Protocols: Http, HTTPS, HTTPS server, Http Proxy and all streaming media protocols

From: Internal

To : Blocked Websites (Domain name set) 

Rule applies to: All users

Youtube gets blocked when accessed through Http protocol, whenever it’s accessed using HTTPS protocol it just connects. After few days of research I found that issue is only with Google Chrome. Whenever I accessHTTPS://youtube.com in Internet explorer the page is not displayed, but somehow Google Chrome overrides my proxy settings for this site alone.  

Note: This same rule works fine for other secured websites. (ie) I am able to blockHTTPS://Facebook.com using this same rule.

Workaround:

   I have also found a workaround to make this work. Goto Internet Explorer, Proxy server settings page, Uncheck ‘automatically Detect settings‘ . .. Now HTTPS://youtube will be blocked in all the browsers including Chrome if it’s importing proxy settings from Internet Explorer.

Question:

  1. When I select ‘ Automatically detect settings ‘ option in local proxy settings why is TMG not able to blockHTTPS://youtube.com  when used in Chrome .
  2. Whenever a HTTPS site is blocked, redirection doesn’t work.  As per the rule that I have set whenever a site is blocked the page should be redirected to another Webpage. This works absolutely fine when a site using Http protocol is blocked.  Whenever a HTTPS site is blocked it just says ‘Cannot display the webpage’

Thanks in advance .

Can't ping from DC1 behind TMG1 to DC2 behind TMG2 on a site-to-site VPN connection

Hi,

I have a weird problem. I have two TMG servers on each site in a hyper-v lab environment. I have been able to establish the site-to-site VPN successfully however when I ping from DC1 behind TMG1(on site 1) to TMG2, DC2, i am able to ping. However the opposite doesn't work. After some trial and error, I figured out that the one initiating the demand-dial request is able to ping the other site, not vice-versa..very strange. I would like to know whether ICMP requests could be achieved bi-directionally..

Secondly, I am able to ping from TMG1 to all the clients sitting behind TMG2 (including the TMG host), however the clients sitting behind TMG1 can't ping TMG2 neither any of the clients behind it. I tried every possible combination under the firewall policies but of complete vain. hell, I am starting to develop a very bad feeling about this product because of making such simple tasks overly complex. I mean, if it were a Cisco or Sonicwall, we could have done this so easily. 

What my final motive is to send LDAP requests from DC1 to DC2 and vice-versa over a site-to-site VPN so that I could set up 2 different sites in AD on different subnets and then proceed with configuring DAG. But if this simple thing turns out to be such major roadblock, dunno how am I gonna pass DAG traffic over it.

Can someone PLEASE help me!! I am completely exhausted researching on this issue.

Regards,

Dman

ISA Server 2006 + Average response time for Non Cached requests = performance issues?!?!?!

All,

I am in a predicament with internet browsing speeds...We have a 3rd party look after our line and internet facing f/w  so I cant troubleshoot them, so at the moment Im looking at ISA as the potential bottleneck - we have a fairly standard environment:

Internal > Local Host > Perimiter n/work > Firewall > Internet

I have been running custom reports on the ISA server to see what data can be collected - I have noticed that "Average response time for non cached requests" (traffic by time of day) can be as high as 76 seconds!!!!!! Cached hits are between .5 and 2 seconds.

I have also coonfigured a connectivity verifier which is also flagging slow connectivity, massively over the >5000ms and also reporting "cant resolve server name on occassions- and this is configured forwww.Microsoft.com --- DNS ???!?!, however I have looked through DNS (no obvious errors / config issues) which I can see 

I have run the BPA on ISA server to ensure its Health - - connectivity verifier errors flagged timeouts to microsoft.com as expected...

Can anyone advise any obvious areas to investigate as Im struggling! - as always the 3rd party have told us the internet pipe is fine :O

authentication problems from iphone via ISA-Server (ldap)

Hello,

in our environment (Windows Small Business Server 2003 Domain with Microsoft Exchange enabled) we have several users who logon exclusively from smartphone (iphone) to the domain getting their the messages via pushmail. Authentication goes through isa server 2006 via ldap - the server is not member of that domain

Everything works fine for a couple of days but then it comes up a error message that username and/or password might be incorrect. The logon failure will be reported in security log at the domain controller (event-id: 529) with isa server as the source address.

At that time a "compromised" user can log on to a domain member (a client or a terminal server session) without any problems and after that the authentication from it's smartphone is successfully

Users who works on a windows client too doesn't have those problems

Any help would be appreciated

Thanks in advance
