I'm in a school environment with a Win2k server, 150 Win2k workstations, 75 NT 4.0 Workstations and a broadband Internet connection. Administrators, teachers and students are in seperate OU's, managed by Active Directory.. Is there a clean and simple way to stop the student machines and accounts from accessing the Internet without having to visit each machine.

Thanks in advance

 
I believe i answered this in another thread last week. for the 2K workstations, simply edit your domain policy to force a bogus proxy server setting in I.E. For the NT4 workstations, you'll need to set up an ntconfig.pol file...
 
If you'r using DHCP and you don't have more than one network, you can try by not giving out the router IP address, or just give a wrong one. A+, MCP, CCNA

Keep fighting for your knowledge!

 
Or you can list IE as one of the Windows Programs you're not allowed to run under:
GPO\User Configuration\System\Don't Run Specified Windows Applications. I use this to stop my users running Outlook Express.

Hope this helps, Glenn
