Hi guys,
At work we have a domain run by a server on Small Business Server 2003. We need to stop one user from using the internet except when given permission... Perhaps a password control would be sufficient.
Unfortunately they still need to access the full internal network, and the internet connection is provided via the LAN.
So, my question is this:
Is there a way of stopping access to everything except internal IP addresses?
Thanks!

Conrad
 
You could use a bogus proxy through Group Policy.

gpedit.msc
User Configuration
Windows Settings
Internet Explorer Maintenance
Connection
Proxy Settings
 
Aha, that's what I need but the only thing is when it comes to disabling it to give him access at lunch he'll see how to do it... Is there any way to do similar but from the server rather than locally?
Thanks Matt!
 
Put the user in a different OU (e.g. "Restricted Users") and enable/disable the policy using AD.
 
don't even have to put them into an OU, just set the security to only apply the policy to that one user.. or create a group and apply it just that group. Then when he needs access, remove him from the group.. and add him back in when he's done.

Also Hi EP and people. I found this place again while looking through a oooollllllldddd backup. I have filled over 10TB and was looking at my collection of antiques. Any bids on the 500Mhz Win 95 fix?
Any of the SP crew still out there?
