Re: GP update

The funny part is that most of my staff home page is set a certain home page
set by GP (GROUP POLICY). Only when they installed yahoo messenger, it
changed the home page to yahoo and GP could not change it back. Is there a
way to enforce the GP?

Hello Dooma,

This is a known behavior, you can achieve that the startup page always
opens with a login script that add's the page like this:

HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Start Page =
http://www.google.com/

I am talking about the home page when you first open explorer.

Hello Dooma,

Do you mean the part when opening IE the first time? Or is it always,
that the page is not started?

All my client machines are in the same OU where the GP is applied.

Hello Dooma,

Computers are not in the OU where the policy is linked to. DNS
problem/misconfigured.

Even though I have a GP to have the home page of Internet Explorer
points to a certain page, some of my client machines are not. Any
suggestions?
