[THIN] Re: IE Zone settings not applying

I had this problem in the past.  The issue is that if explorer.exe is not loaded in the session GPO's are not applied to the profile.  I got around this by running runonce.exe with the alternateshellstartup switch.  This will get your GPO's applied.

@ECHO OFF

Color 0A

IF EXIST "%userprofile%\filemarker.txt" GOTO LAUNCH

runonce.exe /AlternateShellStartup

ECHO.DO NOT CLOSE THIS WINDOW - SETTING UP PROFILE - THIS IS A ONE TIME PROCESS

c:\tools\sleep.exe 5

Copy "C:\documents and settings\filemarker.txt" "%USERPROFILE%"

:LAUNCH

Start "C:\Program Files (x86)\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe" "Path to your website"

Cheers

Hi

I have a strange issue where my Published IE sessions are not getting any IE Zone information (ie Local Intranet settings) via GPO.  I have set the GPO using:

User Configuration > Administrative Templates > Windows Components > internet Explorer > Internet Control Panel > Security Page > Site To Zone Assignment List

Ive also done the above using Machine Based Policy without any luck.  I have also tried using "User Configuration > Windows Settings > Internet Explorer Maintenance > Security > Security Zones and Content" but had no luck either. 

If I run a RSOP, it shows the IE Zone settings supposedly applying but I cannot see the settings in IE if I manually check as a user within the Published IE Session.  If I login to the server console I can see the IE settings being applied.  They simply dont appear when logging on to the Published IE Application as a user.

Any ideas on how I can set IE Zone information either via Machine or User based policy?  Servers are Windows 2003.

Thanks
Ang
