Route all TS users through a proxy

[Guest JohanMartinez]

Is there an easy way to assign all my TS users to access the internet via a

local proxy server I have installed, without manually having to change

internet options for each user?

Sure.

Create a GPO, link it to the OU which contains your Terminal

Servers, and configure this setting:

 

User Configuration - Windows Settings - Internet Explorer

Maintenance - Connection - Proxy

 

And since this is a User Configuration setting, and you want to

apply it to a computer (your TS), you also have to configure

loopback perocessing of the GPO:

 

Computer Configuration - Administrative Templates - System - Group

Policy

"User Group Policy loopback processing mode" - "Replace"

 

Of course, if you want you users to always access the Internet

through this proxy, also when they use Internet Explorer on their

workstations, then you can link the GPO with the proxy setting to

the OU which contains your user accounts, and then you don't need

loppback processing.
