[THIN] Re: Need Help

I don't know how a Winterm does this, but for a Desktop, I set a fake proxy in the GPO, and then create a host table for the allowed site(s). Unless the user knows the IP address of any additional site, they'll never get there.

I believe you can. What you'd have to do is setup a profile with the website that you'd like to access and save that firefox profile.

It's early here in the east coast, so my brain hasn't kicked in just yet. But i believe you can do something like "firefox.exe -P "profilename" - %some other strings%

Don't take my word has i've never done this before.So, basically, it's an educated guess. =)

Will this one work??? ß This is the sarcasm J (In regards to IE-8)

Where I work, IE is not allowed, we use Mozilla Firefox, does anyone know of a way on a remote session using MSTSC to restrict Firefox to one website only?

We have Wyse Winterms spread throughout our factories and we have to restrict Internet access to keep people off of non-business sites, but this one terminal  is in the shipping building and needs to have access to one trucking company, DTS. No I have successfully stopped Internet access on the terminals that do not need Internet access, but this one does, but only for the one site. Any Ideas?

Thanks in advance.

 

Now 2 people answered with good suggestions, but I will take all the input anyone has.

Thanks again.

So, just curious, if I had left out the sarcasm, would anyone have offered any suggestions?

 

Thank You
