Ability to delete all user remote access connections

Requirements: At least Microsoft Windows 2000 Service Pack 1

Location: User Configuration\Network\Network Connections\


Description:
Determines whether users can delete all user remote access connections.

To create an all-user remote access connection, on the Connection Availability page in the New Connection Wizard, click the "For all users" option.

If you enable this setting, all users can delete shared remote access connections. In addition, if your file system is NTFS, users need to have Write access to Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Microsoft\Network\Connections\Pbk to delete a shared remote access connection.

If you disable this setting (and enable the "Enable Network Connections settings for Administrators" setting), users (including administrators) cannot delete all-user remote access connections. (By default, users can still delete their private connections, but you can change the default by using the "Prohibit deletion of remote access connections" setting.)

Important

If you do not configure this setting, only Administrators and Network Configuration Operators can delete all user remote access connections.
