I think that is the ultimate annoyance.

Now I have it set to just automatically detect the intranet, and that 
"somewhat" resolves the mapped drive to "one" of my file servers

But if i set the site to zone assignment, I can't "Add" another setting because 
it "wipes" out the automatic detected intranet file server

Where do I go again for the IE maintenance settings...?

Keep in mind that if you're setting Site to Zone Assignment in Admin. 
Templates, one of the side effects is that those are locked down to users. IE 
Maintenance based zone security won't do that but has its own issues!

I am trying to setup a few sites and unc paths to be trusted by computers in my 
domain.

The frustration is, where I am making the changes, does not seem to have an 
effect.

I am trying to not have the dreaded Open File - Security warning pop up when my 
staff tries to install things from my remote NAS file server

What is wierd, is I use folder redirection which points to the same NAS, and 
when users run the same executables, the ydon't get the Open File warning.

But if they run that same eexcutable from a mapped drive to a different folder 
on the file server, the Open File Warning box pops up.

Another annoying things, is if i set the site to zone assignment GP settings, 
the users are unable to add sites because it is greyed out.  I try to disable 
or reverse the policy, and I am still unable ..

Very frustrating at this point.

I am thinking, I am in the wrong section of group Policy
