Group Policy : Prohibit
viewing of status for an active connection
At least
Microsoft Windows 2000 Service Pack 1
Determines
whether users can view the status for an active connection. Connection status
is available from the connection status taskbar icon or from the Status dialog
box. The Status dialog box displays information about the connection and its
activity. It also provides buttons to disconnect and to configure the
properties of the connection. If you enable this setting, the connection status
taskbar icon and Status dialog box are not available to users (including
administrators). The Status option is disabled in the context menu for the
connection and on the File menu in the Network Connections folder. Users cannot
choose to show the connection icon in the taskbar from the Connection
Properties dialog box. Important: If the Enable Network Connections settings
for Administrators is disabled or not configured, this setting will not apply
to administrators on post-Windows 2000 computers. If you disable this setting
or do not configure it, the connection status taskbar icon and Status dialog
box are available to all users.
