Get hold of the original NGX CD's and check the /Docs folder on CD2
(Windows/Solaris CD). In there you'll find *all* the pdf's needed to
administer your system.
What you're looking for is "Security Server" in particular, a HTTP Security
Server that will re-direct HTTP traffic using UFP (URL Filtering Protocol).
Works fine, the only downside is a 10% - 15% CPU hit. *Most* Checkpoint
Firewalls run at about 1% - 5% utilization, so it shouldn't be too much of a
problem.
Post back here if you need more help, it's hard being new to Checkpoint
sometimes :)

ps: NGX is also known as R60 (Release 60) At the moment, Checkpoint are up
to HFA03 of R60. It helps to post questions as " I'm running NGX HFAxx" etc
etc :)
