I think I originally had the sbs2k server setup as the proxy for the network
for caching reasons, etc. Our traffic to the internet now goes straight
out through a hardware firewall.

The issue is, when setting up a new user and a number of other tasks, IE
auto defaults to using the sbs and port 8080 for a proxy. Then the users
are not able to get to the internet. I have to walk them through the steps
of going to tools>options>connections> uncheck use a proxy...

Where on the sbs can I go to change this default client assignment? I check
DHCP thinking it might be in there, but didn't see anything.

Any suggestions?

Thanks a million!
Joe.

Hi Joe,

I believe your issue is rlated to how ISA 2000 has been set up. Take a look
at this thread: (especially the last three posts)

Why doesn't Firewall Client configure IE proxy settings
