HOW DO I USE GROUP POLICY TO CONTROL INTERNET ACCESS TO USERS

[anyichux]

Hello All,

I have a Windows 2000 Server domain with about 80 users
I have DHCP, DNS and a firewall.

My question is: How do I use group policy to control Internet access to groups in my domain. There are a set of users belonging to a group here that I'll like to deny access to the Internet.

They are causing serious network bottleneck for me by always streaming audio and video files.

I'll appreciate any help I can get with this regards.

Thanks,

Chux

Guessing here! Have you a group policy that gives the users the proxy/router address to use for the internet? If so create another policy that give a false address and issue it to them users? Maybe create a folder called "int dis" or something in the AC with the policy over it? This is how its done on the school network where i work.
