    Your latest iRule contains a capital letter in your match string. It'll never match since you are converting to lower case before comparison.

I understand the switch, the problem is i can't just a specific URI. The below command won't work at all unless i take out the /webobjects portion. Then it works.

when HTTP_REQUEST {
    if { ( [string tolower [HTTP::uri]] starts_with "/helpdesk/webobjects" ) and not ( [HTTP::cookie exists MRHSession] ) } {
        ACCESS::disable
    } else {
        ACCESS::enable
        return
    } 
}
