GPO for removing temporary internet files?

[Guest RossB]

Is there a GPO setting for removing temporary internet files?. I know the

standard win 2003 GPO wont do this, but wondered if this can be added in an

ADM file.

This is an example file from http://www.gruppenrichtlinien.de - a German Group

Policy site:

 

CLASS USER

 

CATEGORY "Custom Changes for Internet Explorer"

 

POLICY "Delete temporary internet files on close"

KEYNAME "Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\Cache"

VALUENAME "Persistent"

VALUEON NUMERIC 0 VALUEOFF NUMERIC 1

END POLICY

END CATEGORY

 

Beware of the evil line break!

 

cheers,

I have managed to locate a local policy on windows 2003 that does this at

 

USER Configuration\Admin Templates\windows components\Internet

Explorer\Internet Control Panel\Advanced page\

- Empty Temporary Internet files Folder when browser is closed (enable)

 

The option is not available by default on the domain policy.

 

I am interested in your post. Are you suggesting a custom policy can be

created. If so, how?

The "code" I provided in my first post, you need to save as whatever.adm

- it's just a text file. Beware of the line breaks! Back in the Group

Policy Editor on a Domain Controller, you right-click "Administrative

Templates" and choose "Add/Remove Template...". Choose the whatever.adm

template. After that, right-click the "Custom changes for Internet

Explorer" folder you see now and choose "View"->"Filtering" and uncheck

all boxes that say "Only show..".

 

cheers,
