Topic: prevent USB drives

[bbialy]

Does anybody knows the way to prevent using USB drives on winxp which are member of SME domain (roaming profiles are on).
turning off usb ports in bios is not allwed becouse users need to use scanners and printers or USB keys to application (ex. HASP)

Does anybody knows the way to prevent using USB drives on winxp ...

Does this have anything to do with SME server?

[bbialy]

don't know maybe there are some settings in roaming profiles configuration or SME Domain
or maybe there is some sort of contrib available for sme.
maybe some sort of user poilcy or group policy or settings in log in script manager

if i knew this things probably i wouldn't ask this question but this forum is in opinion right place to ask becouse sme as domain controler is its native functionality.

search on the forums and with googlew for poledit..

it's a M$ tool to create policy, and it works with windows 2000 and windowx XP (not Vista)

BTW, this is definitely the wrong forum where to ask such a question
