bbbngowc Posted September 11, 2006 Posted September 11, 2006 Hello, Is it possible to set a group policy that will place websites that I specify into the "Trusted Sites" on Each Windows XP computer? I'm looking but I don't see that option.
Ctrl-X Posted September 11, 2006 Posted September 11, 2006 Sure: edit the appropriate GPO and navigate to User Configuration / Windows Settings / Internet Explorer Maintenance / Security. Edit the "Security Zones and Content Ratings" option and select "Import the current security zones and privacy settings".

bbbngowc Posted September 11, 2006 Author Posted September 11, 2006 I had tried that earlier but it didn't work. Any suggestions?
Ctrl-X Posted September 11, 2006 Posted September 11, 2006 Are you sure you didn't import the settings in Preference Mode?
bbbngowc Posted September 11, 2006 Author Posted September 11, 2006 I followed the steps as outline above. I'll wait a few minutes (may be an hour) and see if it works.
valter Posted September 11, 2006 Posted September 11, 2006 Check if the GPO is applied, using gpresult
bbbngowc Posted September 11, 2006 Author Posted September 11, 2006 Ok, I just logged someone of and had them log back on and it's working. Thanks guys.
