MM I had some issues in the past with IE regarding setting a Autoproxy URL, which I easily resolved by moving the GPO to a User OU rather than Computer [long story]. If you are still having issues feel free to reply back and I will see if I can help.

Greetings: This is my first time to address this list. The question I have regards the IE maintenance policies...specifically those related to proxy settings. I have setup a policy and am applying it to my user OU in my domain. Oddly, when I run RSOP on a few clients it shows the policy is applied successfully and there are no issues related to this policy reported by RSOP, however when I check the browser settings the proxy settings have not been applied. Further, the system has been logging this in the applog: Event Type: Error Event Source: Userenv Event Category: None Event ID: 1030 Date: 8/15/2007 Time: 6:09:53 AM User: DOMAIN\user Computer: COMPUTERNAME Description: Windows cannot query for the list of Group Policy objects. A message that describes the reason for this was previously logged by the policy engine. For more information, see Help and Support Center at http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/events.asp. Finally, I was told that if there were folders "custom#" in this path the policy was being applied...particularly if there was an *.ins file in one of these folders w/ the proxy settings in it. If found the folders and the file w/ the proxy settings yet it is still not being applied: \\%computername%\c$\Documents and Settings\%username%\Application Data\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Custom Settings\ Reboots, adjusting the policy priority order, checking scope, deleting and recreating "custom settings" folder in the profile...nothing has worked so far. Any clues as to what I might need to check would be great. Thanks, MM
