I need to be able to prevent a user or group of users from accessing the internet, but allow them to use their browsers to access local intranet sites. Any suggestions?
Desktop Authority has a "Manual proxy configuration" option in the Web Browser configuration so it might work to add in the erroneous proxy setting there. If that fails, there is also a GPO manipulation option with the "Group Policy Templates" section but I have never tried it.
Keep in mind this type of thing should be done via a firewall. Using DA for this is not very inclusive. What if they bring in their own computer, install a different browser, log in as a different user or with an account that doesn't run SLOGIC?
Our firewall is AD enabled and I have rules defined for various AD groups, such as students can't get to Facebook and YouTube. It makes life easy and when they bring in a personal phone or laptop or iPad and connect to the WiFi they have to use their own account (via RADIUS authentication) so they get the same permissions
