Remote Desktop Services Logon Applys IE Enhanced Security

Hi,
My Current Environment is SBS2011 + Windows Server 2008 R2.

SBS is used for all packaged roles.
Server 2008 R2 is used for remote desktop services and application server only.

When a user remotes into the 2008 R2 server they have IE ESC applied.

However I have set IE ESC in Server Manager on 2008 R2 server to Off for both administrators and Users.

By default in an SBS2011 domain is there any Group Policies that could be applying this to users when they log on?

To the best of my knowledge, and I am fairly certain, there are no GPO's to enable/disable IE Enhanced Security. As a matter fact a while back there were a few scripting articles about how to create a custom template to do so, so I am doubtful you would have that or enabled in a default SBS domain.

However IE Enhanced Security is handled a little differently on a terminal server though I have never really dug into it. I would recommend reading the section 1/2 way down the page on the topic under; "Internet Explorer Enhanced Security Configuration and Terminal Services". It may be of some help. There is a link within about configuring for standard users.
