RE: GP settings for Trusted sites - don't see them in the individual users settings on IE?

Hi,

Thanks for posting here.

From your post, my understanding on this issue is: the GP settings for IE
Trusted sites cannot apply to users. If I am off base, please feel free to
let me know.

According to my research, there is Internet Explorer Maintenance Extension
in Group Policy, which may help you set the trusted sites on the clients
via GPO. The related policy is "Security Zones and Content Ratings" which
can be located in Group Policy Editor from:

User Configuration\Windows Settings\Internet Explorer Maintenance\Security

For more information about Internet Explorer Maintenance Extension, please
refer to the following Web site:

Internet Explorer Maintenance Extension Technical Reference

Please double check the above technology article to make sure you have
correct steps for IE trusted site configuration.

If the issue persists, this problem occurs because the client does not
replace one of the two affected registry keys correctly. When you edit the
list of trusted Web sites in the Security Zones and Content Ratings GPO on
a domain controller, the settings that you configure are written to the
Seczones.inf file. When the client applies the GPO, it reads the
information in the Seczones.inf file and then updates the registry. The
changes affect two registry keys. The new settings replace the settings
that are contained in one registry key, but only adds (instead of replaces)
the new settings to the other registry key. The two registry keys that are
affected are:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet
Settings\ZoneMap\Domains

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet
Settings\ZoneMap\Domains

To resolve this problem, please obtain the latest service pack for Windows
SBS 2003.

I hope the above information helps.

Have a nice day.
