Configure DC Agent to ignore certain user names
Topic 51016 | Using DC Agent | TRITON AP-WEB and Web Filter & Security | v8.0.x, v8.1.x | 12-Oct-2015
The method that some Windows services use to contact domain controllers from user machines can cause the users logged on to those machines to be misidentified. For example, problems can be caused by:
*
*
To prevent or work around possible misidentification, configure your transparent identification agent to ignore logon names that are not associated with actual users.
1.
2.
Navigate to the Websense bin directory (C:\Program Files\Websense\Web Security\bin, by default).
3.
 
Note

*
Add each user name that should be ignored on its own line. Websense software ignores these users, regardless of which machine they use.
*
To add a user name/machine pair, enter the user name, followed by a comma, and then the machine host name or IP address (ypark,YPARK-WS1). In this case, Websense software ignores the specified user only on the specified machine.
*
To add a machine, enter an asterisk (*), followed by a comma, followed by the machine host name, IP address, or IP address range.
The following example shows correctly formatted entries:
anonymous logon
admin,WKSTA-NAME
*, WKSTB-NAME
*, 10.209.34.56
*, 10.203.34.1-10.203.34.255
In this example, the Windows 7 service account anonymous logon is ignored on all machines, the user name admin is ignored only when associated with machine WKSTA-NAME, and logons for WKSTB-NAME, 10.209.34.56, and the network range 10.203.34.1 to 10.203.34.255 are ignored.

6.
Start the Websense DC Agent service.
