Re: Block internet sites through IE on TS

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance



Blocking sites completely is really a task for your firewall, not
for the TS.
If you want to configure IE settings for all users on the TS, you
really need to use a GPO. I'd invest some time to learn about
GPO's, it's a good investment, nearly everything can be configured
with them.

We run two TS that all users connect to through RDP. The only
browser installed is IE. I am looking to block certain Internet
sites and just highten the level of security on both TS's. I
thought by setting Content Advisor in IE from the Administrator
account it would propigate and set for all users, but I
discovered that is not right.

Is there an option to block sites and set the content advisor
for all users on TS? Or do I need to go to a third party item
either on our firewall or software? I assumed this could be
solved via some sort of group policy, but I am a novice at group
policy and just didn't want to mess anything up. :)

Thanks. ~Gretchen
