Hi,

I am having an issue with some Citrix servers after upgrading Internet Explorer 7 as the proxy settings have dropped from the IE settings page hence users cannot browse the internet.

Our GPO "Internet_Explorer_Settings" are configured with the following options:

User Configuration (Enabled) -> Windows Settings -> Internet Explorer Maintenance -> Connection/Proxy Settings
Enable proxy settings: HTTP = proxy.xxx.xxx:8080
Execptions: Do not use proxy server for addresses beginning with *abc.xxx.xxx, *def.xxx.xxx, 192.x.x.x
Do not use proxy server for local (intranet) addresses: Enabled

The policy is definately being applied as per the output from gpresult /v:

Applied Group Policy Objects
-----------------------------
Internet_Explorer_Settings
Default Domain Policy
Terminal Server
Internet_Explorer_Settings
Default Domain Policy
Internet_Explorer_Settings

Something I've noticed as strange as under the section Internet Explorer Connection:

Internet Explorer Connection
----------------------------
HTTP Proxy Server: N/A
Secure Proxy Server: N/A
FTP Proxy Server: N/A
Gopher Proxy Server: N/A
Socks Proxy Server: N/A
Auto Config Enable: No
Enable Proxy: No
Use same Proxy: Yes

HTTP Proxy Server: proxy.xxx.xxx:8080
Secure Proxy Server: proxy.xxx.xxx:8080
FTP Proxy Server: proxy.xxx.xxx:8080

HTTP Proxy Server: proxy.xxx.xxx:8080

HTTP Proxy Server: proxy.xxx.xxx:8080
Secure Proxy Server: proxy.xxx.xxx:8080
FTP Proxy Server: proxy.xxx.xxx:8080
Gopher Proxy Server: proxy.xxx.xxx:8080
Socks Proxy Server: proxy.xxx.xxx:8080
Auto Config Enable: No
Enable Proxy: Yes
Use same Proxy: Yes

HTTP Proxy Server: N/A
Secure Proxy Server: N/A
FTP Proxy Server: N/A
Gopher Proxy Server: N/A
Socks Proxy Server: N/A
Auto Config Enable: No
Enable Proxy: No
Use same Proxy: Yes

If those are set chronogically I guess that would explain why the settings are set to blank as the last lot are "N/A", what I can't figure out is why it is happening as only the policies that have the Proxy options configured are "Internet_Explorer_Settings" and "Terminal Server" which both have the proxy set correctly to proxy.xxx.xxx:8080

RSOP reports that the proxy should be set to proxy.xxx.xxx:8080 but going to the connection options in IE yields blanks.

Any ideas? This has only happened since installation of IE7

Cheers
