I agree entirely with your ISA Server sentiment.

However, the situation dictates that many users with different
protocol access needs may use the same computer, or one user
could use many computers.  I imagine this is a fairly common
scenario these days.  ipfw has the ability to filter by uid/gid,
but I suspect that is only from the local machine.  ISA Server
has the ability to provide filters based on a user's (Active
Directory) SID.  I would like to be able to provide this (or
equivalent) funtionallity using a 'real' network OS (FreeBSD of
course :).

In summary, I would like specific users to only have access to
specific protocols, regardless of the machine that they are
using, and I would like to do this with FreeBSD.

Any recommendations/insight would be very helpful.

Thanks,
Derek
