Hello,
We have 2 seperate tmg servers with each a seperate internet connection. Since last night the url filtering stopped working on both of them. We didn't change anything on them. When i look in the log i see a connection failed attempt to the MRS servers:
Failed Connection Attempt TMGServer 1/19/2012 12:13:44 PM
Log type: Web Proxy (Forward)
Status: 10061 No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it.
Rule: [System] Allow HTTP/HTTPS requests from Forefront TMG to specified sites
Source: Local Host (127.0.0.1:32294)
Destination: Internal (94.245.112.71:443)
Request: - 10.ds.mrs.microsoft.com:443
(i can allso see these requests succeeded yesterday)
Following the troubleshooting flowchart (http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff358603.aspx) this indeed indicates the server can't contact the MRS. Is anyone else allso having trouble connecting to mrs? Is there perhaps a way to check the status of the mrs servers?
Thanks in advance,
Coen
