Group Policy Guide
Group Policy Supported on :
   At least Microsoft Windows 2000
Group Policy Explain :
   Lets you selectively permit or prohibit the use of Microsoft Management Console (MMC) snap-ins. -- If you enable this setting, all snap-ins are prohibited, except those that you explicitly permit. Use this setting if you plan to prohibit use of most snap-ins. To explicitly permit a snap-in, open the Restricted/Permitted snap-ins setting folder and enable the settings representing the snap-in you want to permit. If a snap-in setting in the folder is disabled or not configured, the snap-in is prohibited. -- If you disable this setting or do not configure it, all snap-ins are permitted, except those that you explicitly prohibit. Use this setting if you plan to permit use of most snap-ins. To explicitly prohibit a snap-in, open the Restricted/Permitted snap-ins setting folder and then disable the settings representing the snap-ins you want to prohibit. If a snap-in setting in the folder is enabled or not configured, the snap-in is permitted. When a snap-in is prohibited, it does not appear in the Add/Remove Snap-in window in MMC. Also, when a user opens a console file that includes a prohibited snap-in, the console file opens, but the prohibited snap-in does not appear. Note: If you enable this setting, and you do not enable any settings in the Restricted/Permitted snap-ins folder, users cannot use any MMC snap-ins.

481-Prohibit access to the New Connection Wizard


Group Policy : Prohibit access to the New Connection Wizard

 
Group Policy Guide
Group Policy Supported on :
   At least Microsoft Windows 2000 Service Pack 1
Group Policy Explain :
   Determines whether users can use the New Connection Wizard, which creates new network connections. If you enable this setting (and enable the Enable Network Connections settings for Administrators setting), the Make New Connection icon does not appear in the Start Menu on in the Network Connections folder. As a result, users (including administrators) cannot start the New Connection Wizard. 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 Make New Connection icon appears in the Start menu and in the Network Connections folder for all users. Clicking the Make New Connection icon starts the New Connection Wizard. Note: Changing this setting from Enabled to Not Configured does not restore the Make New Connection icon until the user logs off or on. When other changes to this setting are applied, the icon does not appear or disappear in the Network Connections folder until the folder is refreshed. Note: This setting does not prevent users from using other programs, such as Internet Explorer, to bypass this setting.

461-Reminder balloon frequency


Group Policy : Reminder balloon frequency

Group Policy Supported on :
   At least Microsoft Windows 2000
Group Policy Explain :
   Determines how often reminder balloon updates appear. If you enable this setting, you can select how often reminder balloons updates apppear and also prevent users from changing this setting. Reminder balloons appear when the user's connection to a network file is lost or reconnected, and they are updated periodically. By default, the first reminder for an event is displayed for 30 seconds. Then, updates appear every 60 minutes and are displayed for 15 seconds. You can use this setting to change the update interval. Deze instelling verschijnt in de Computerconfiguratie en Gebruikersconfiguratie mappen. If both settings are configured, the setting in Computer Configuration takes precedence over the setting in User Configuration. Tip: To set reminder balloon frequency without establishing a setting, in Windows Explorer, on the Tools menu, click Folder Options, and then click the Offline Files tab. This setting corresponds to the Display reminder balloons every ... minutes option.
