Stop Access To Tcp/ip Settings

Ogbodu · 04-11-2008, 12:48 PM

I HAVE LAN OF OVER 50 PCS CONNECTED TO THE INTERNET GATEWAY(ROUTER).I WANT TO PREVENT MY USER FROM ACCESSING THE TCP/IP SETTINGS OF THEIR COMPUTERS SO THEY CANT CHANGE THEIR IPs. AS SOME IP CAN BROWSE WHILE SOME CANT

Are these users running restricted accounts? It'll be pretty difficult to limit them if they have administrative rights on the local machines. I'd consider filtering the Internet requests by MAC address on the server.
