I've configured the location of our automatic configuration script under "User Configuration > Preferences > Control Panel Settings > Internet Settings > Internet Explorer 8 > Connections > LAN Settings > Use automatic configuration script", but when I look at the configured settings in Internet Options, the path is not shown and the checkbox is not ticked.
Have I configured this setting in the recommended location in Group Policy? Any idea why it's having no effect?
When you configure the preference you need to press F6 to turn the red dotted line into green, in this way your setting will be applied.
