[gptalk] Re: IE7 GPO

So I'm not clear. Are you saying that the GPO is not persisting the settings
or that clients aren't receiving them? What does the brndlog.txt file (found
in a user's profile under AppData\Microsoft\Internet Explorer)say?

Darren-

Actually I made these settings on a Windows2003 server, at the initial time
of the settings the server did not have IE 7, but I went back and updated it
to IE 7 and Windows Server Service Pack 2; I went back into the GPO to see
if any of the settings had changed, but I could not see a difference. If you
have any ideas, I'd really appreciated it. Thanks!!

 

PS. We do not have any VISTA machines in the district as of yet.

Freddy-

I have heard some rumblings that there are issues with IE Maintenance and IE
7 if you are setting IE Maintenance policy from "downlevel" OS'. Are you
setting this from a XP machine or a Vista machine? If XP, you might try
setting it from a Vista machine if you have one (in a test scenario of
course) and see if it functions any better.

Subject: [gptalk] IE7 GPO

 

I have a question about the GPO on Internet Explorer 7. I created a GPO for
certain users to block the usage of the Internet and for those machines that
have IE 6 it works fine, but for those computers that have upgraded to IE 7
it doesn't. I had gone into the User Configuration; Windows Settings;
Internet Explorer Maintenance; Connection; Proxy Settings and placed a bogus
proxy, but for some reason in IE 7 it bypasses those settings and goes
through. How can I resolve this issue?

 

Any assistance in this matter will be greatly appreciated. Thanks!!
