Chapter 4: Installing Websense Enterprise or Web Security Suite
Web server: To install Real-Time Analyzer (RTA) you must have either
Microsoft IIS or Apache HTTP Server installed. If neither supported web
server is detected, the installer gives you the option to install the Apache
HTTP Server or continue the installation without installing RTA.
Internet access: For the Websense Master Database download to occur
during installation, the machine running the Websense Filtering Service
must have internet access to the download servers at the following URLs:
download.websense.com
ddsdom.websense.com
ddsint.websense.com
portal.websense.com
my.websense.com
Make sure that these addresses are permitted by all firewalls, proxy
servers, routers, or host files that control the URLs that Filtering Service
can access.
Remote Control Utilities: Installation of Websense Enterprise or Web
Security Suite using a remote control utility such as Terminal Services is
not supported.
Enabling Java interfaces: If you are installing any Websense
components on a Windows 2000 Server machine, you must install
DirectX to launch the Java-based GUI installer. If DirectX is not present,
you can only install Websense components in the console mode. To
enable the console installer in Windows 2000, see the procedure in the
troubleshooting topic Websense splash screen is displayed, but installer
does not launch on Windows 2000, page 233.
If you have performed a console installation on a Windows 2000 Server
machine without DirectX, you must install Websense Manager on a
Solaris machine or on a Windows or Linux machine capable of displaying
a Java interface.
