setting http proxy settings on logon

[jmp85uk]

I need to create a file that will run whenever someone logs onto a computer. Currently each user needs to setup the proxy access so they can get internet access, if they log on to a new machine.

Does anyone know how to do this? I have tried some options I found on the internet but couldn't get them to work.

Are the Pc's on a active directory domain, if so, you can use group policy to configure the proxy settings.

If not paste this into notepad and save as a .reg file

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings]
"ProxyEnable"=dword:00000001
"ProxyServer"="1.1.1.1:80"

changing the "ProxyServer"="1.1.1.1:80" line to the relevant ip/servername & port

Then you can run this silently by making a bat file with

regedit /s "path to .reg file"

You can then place this bat file in the startup folder

This will setup internet explorer with the proxy of your choice
