Hi,

Does anyone know if there is an easy way (via GPO's) in which I can restrict
all access to removable media, floppy drives, cd roms and particularly USB
mass storage devices.

Clients running Windows XP, with Active Directory.



Cheers

I am not aware of any way other than using cmos settings [password protect of course
with a locked case] and/or a case that locks access to those devices. There are
supposedly third party programs that can control access. See KB link below on USB,
though I have not tried it myself. --- Steve
