Hello Clark White,

You have not provide a detailed explanation or topology,

Can you try to follow the following documment I created and see what option might fit your needs based on the network deployment you have there?

Hello,

Very good Docment dear,

Please find the attached.

There is trust relationship between the 2 domain as seen in the attachment.

I want to access from user PC to filenet server application through the URL. http://filenet.abc.com/workplace, when i enter from user PC in the browser the login page of the application shld come as per the URL http://filenet.abc.com:2080/Workplace/ContainerLogin.jsp

but unfortunately i get the authentication window for the domain abc after entering the username and password i get the below message.I hope the below error is due to trust relationship between the 2 domains.

"your browser configuration is correct but you have not logged into a supported Microsoft Windows Domain

please login to the application using the normal login page"

After the above error when again i open a new tab in the browser and try to open a link by adding the contents http://filenet.abc.com:2080/Workplace/ContainerLogin.jsp

it opens properly, actually i want to know where the things are missing to open in 1st attempt.

the domain on the ASA is abc.com
DNS server ip add on the firewall are for both the domain
filenet is static natted to IP which is accessible from branch.

Thanks

Hello Clark,

This does not like like a firewall issue. I mean traffic is flowing back and forward.

Where's the DNS server that the user uses to contact that server?
