479-Prohibit connecting and disconnecting a remote access connection


Group Policy : Prohibit connecting and disconnecting a remote access connection



Group Policy Supported on :
Group Policy Explain :
   Determines whether users can connect and disconnect remote access connections. If you enable this setting (and enable the Enable Network Connections settings for Administrators setting), double-clicking the icon has no effect, and the Connect and Disconnect menu items are disabled for all users (including administrators). 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 Connect and Disconnect options for remote access connections are available to all users. Users can connect or disconnect a remote access connection by double-clicking the icon representing the connection, by right-clicking it, or by using the File menu.

478-Ability to delete all user remote access connections


Group Policy : Ability to delete all user remote access connections



Group Policy Supported on :
   At least Microsoft Windows 2000 Service Pack 1
Group Policy Explain :
   Determines whether users can delete all user remote access connections. To create an all-user remote access connection, on the Connection Availability page in the New Connection Wizard, click the For all users option. If you enable this setting, all users can delete shared remote access connections. In addition, if your file system is NTFS, users need to have Write access to Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Microsoft\Network\Connections\Pbk to delete a shared remote access connection. If you disable this setting (and enable the Enable Network Connections settings for Administrators setting), users (including administrators) cannot delete all-user remote access connections. (By default, users can still delete their private connections, but you can change the default by using the Prohibit deletion of remote access connections setting.) 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 do not configure this setting, only Administrators and Network Configuration Operators can delete all user remote access connections. Important: When enabled, the Prohibit deletion of remote access connections setting takes precedence over this setting. Users (including administrators) cannot delete any remote access connections, and this setting is ignored. Note: LAN connections are created and deleted automatically by the system when a LAN adapter is installed or removed. You cannot use the Network Connections folder to create or delete a LAN connection. Note: This setting does not prevent users from using other programs, such as Internet Explorer, to bypass this setting.

477-Prohibit deletion of remote access connections


Group Policy : Prohibit deletion of remote access connections



Group Policy Supported on :
Group Policy Explain :
   Determines whether users can delete remote access connections. If you enable this setting (and enable the Enable Network Connections settings for Administrators setting), users (including administrators) cannot delete any remote access connections. This setting also disables the Delete option on the context menu for a remote access connection and on the File menu in the Network Connections folder. 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, all users can delete their private remote access connections. Private connections are those that are available only to one user. (By default, only Administrators and Network Configuration Operators can delete connections available to all users, but you can change the default by using the Ability to delete all user remote access connections setting.) Important: When enabled, this setting takes precedence over the Ability to delete all user remote access connections setting. Users cannot delete any remote access connections, and the Ability to delete all user remote access connections setting is ignored. Note: LAN connections are created and deleted automatically when a LAN adapter is installed or removed. You cannot use the Network Connections folder to create or delete a LAN connection. Note: This setting does not prevent users from using other programs, such as Internet Explorer, to bypass this setting.

472-Prohibit adding and removing components for a LAN or remote access connection


Group Policy : Prohibit adding and removing components for a LAN or remote access connection

 
Group Policy Supported on :
   At least Microsoft Windows 2000 Service Pack 1
Group Policy Explain :
   Determines whether administrators can add and remove network components for a LAN or remote access connection. This setting has no effect on nonadministrators. If you enable this setting (and enable the Enable Network Connections settings for Administrators setting), the Install and Uninstall buttons for components of connections are disabled, and administrators are not permitted to access network components in the Windows Components 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 Install and Uninstall buttons for components of connections in the Network Connections folder are enabled. Also, administrators can gain access to network components in the Windows Components Wizard. The Install button opens the dialog boxes used to add network components. Clicking the Uninstall button removes the selected component in the components list (above the button). The Install and Uninstall buttons appear in the properties dialog box for connections. These buttons are on the General tab for LAN connections and on the Networking tab for remote access connections. Note: When the Prohibit access to properties of a LAN connection, Ability to change properties of an all user remote access connection, or Prohibit changing properties of a private remote access connection settings are set to deny access to the connection properties dialog box, the Install and Uninstall buttons for connections are blocked. Note: Nonadministrators are already prohibited from adding and removing connection components, regardless of this setting.

467-Ability to rename LAN connections or remote access connections available to all users


Group Policy : Ability to rename LAN connections or remote access connections available to all users

 
Group Policy Supported on :
Group Policy Explain :
   Determines whether users can rename LAN or all user remote access connections. If you enable this setting, the Rename option is enabled for all users. Users can rename connections by clicking the icon representing a connection or by using the File menu. If you disable this setting (and enable the Enable Network Connections settings for Administrators setting), the Rename option for LAN and all user remote access connections is disabled for all users (including Administrators and Network Configuration Operators). 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 this setting is not configured, only Administrators and Network Configuration Operators have the right to rename LAN or all user remote access connections. Note: When configured, this setting always takes precedence over the Ability to rename LAN connections and Ability to rename all user remote access connections settings. Note: This setting does not prevent users from using other programs, such as Internet Explorer, to rename remote access connections.
