Proxy configuration ignored with I.E 6 and terminal services

[Guest]

Hi all,

we have IE 6 and terminal services running on 2000 and it was working fine.
now when i try to tell IE to use the proxy either manually or via registry or
pac file the settings are ignored and it will always go direct? I checked the
reg and it looked fine then opened IE and did a F5 on the reg and saw that
the proxy settings removed themselves. There is no other policy configuring
this and when i logged on locally to the server with the same account and
added the proxy config then remoted on again it then worked just for that
user.

any ideas people?

ProcMon would give you a more accurate indication than F5
at least _when_ the registry was being changed, if not also by what.


Good luck
