This will be my first time setting up global policies (hope it’s as good for me as it is for them).
I’m administering a network of 40+ users. PDC is NT4, but most workstations are Win2k, 5-10 are XP and perhaps another 5 are NT4 WS’s.
Also have a Terminal server for branches that connect to us by wireless (they aren’t a part of our network, not administered by PDC, they simply use the term. server to access a specialised software). Additionally, we have a proxy server running ProLAN Suite (yeah crappy – I know). This administers emails and http. And finally, a fax server.
We also plan to set up an SMS server to administer patches.
I want to set policies to:
– Disable FTP from desktops
– Disable patch/update downloads
– Limit user privileges
– Any other recommendations you (the pundits) may have
What are my steps?
