Are you using a name for the proxy server? In that case, the machine will first try to resolve it using the DNS server. When used in a hotel, it would be the hotel DNS server, which will not work because it cant obiviously resolve your internal proxy server name

Currently I lock down the proxy settings for all users and have a group that allows members to edit them, but it reapplies every 45 minutes.

Hi All,<br />
<br />
I recently started a new company and they allow laptop users unrestricted internet access at home.<br />
<br />
I want all traffic to go through out TMG server for content filtering, SPAM, AV etc...<br />
<br />
<br />
I've locked down the IE proxy settings so it points at our proxy server. &nbsp;However several users have said they can't access the internet when in hotels.<br />
<br />
I dont know if this is true, but I thought the whole idea of captive portals were to redirect everything to the hotels login page regardless of the proxy settings.<br />
<br />
<br />
Can anyone shed any light on this?

Lockdown proxy settings with group policy, but allow access to Captive Portals

A virtual private network (VPN) is a network that uses a public telecommunication infrastructure, such as the Internet, to provide remote offices or travelling users access to a central organizational network securely. VPNs encapsulate data transfers using secure cryptographic methods and other security mechanisms to ensure that only authorized users can access the network and that the data cannot be intercepted.
