Re: How to change the default config away from using proxy

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

Proxy/ISA has nothign to do with IIS.

Have you opened the correct file on the server inthe clientapps area?

Have you run the command I posted on the workstation?

Hi Cris,

We installed IIS, but I don't believe we installed ISA. It is my
understanding that Proxy Server is part of IIS.

In any event, the issue occurs when we add a new user on a client computer.
Specifically, in the Control Panel of the workstation, we run Users icon/app.
The new users configuration for Internet Options/Connection/Lan Setting/Use
a proxy ... check box is checked and the info points to SBS01 and port 8080.
I would guess there's something in the file that supplements the User
Template on the server, but I'm not knowledgable about what works with the
Template files. Are you aware of a file that works with the Add a user to a
workstation?

When you say proxy server, are we talking ISA 2000 or 2004?

Hi Jim,

Thanks for the reply. I found the install.ins and opened it with wordpad.
It does have a section [Proxy]. However, most of the settings are a null
(see below). Is there another config file that executes when a new user
first logs in? This problem seems to be associated with a new user.

[Proxy]
HTTP_Proxy_Server=
FTP_Proxy_Server=
Gopher_Proxy_Server=
Secure_Proxy_Server=
Socks_Proxy_Server=
Use_Same_Proxy=0
Proxy_Enable=0
Proxy_Override=
AutoDetect=0
