Moving "naughty users" to a different proxy using Containers or groups?

[reggiep]

We have a limited number of smoothwall licenses so we decided to put our more challenging students on to it.

For speed we created a new OU and changed the gpo that affected it to point items in it to smoothwall.

 

Is this best practice or would we be better creating a group, naughty users, and then adding our challenging kids to this group?

 

Thanks

If your list of naughty users changes a lot, which I suspect it will if ours are anything to go by, it's probably better to have a group; instead of moving their location all the time.

Yeah id go with the group option also its a much better and easier way than moving OU's.

we have done the same - had to have OU and group in the end to lock everything down.

Does not take a minute if you have OU's nested beneath your existing student containers.

We have done this and we use a group for it.

 

If a student is in this group - no internet.

Thankfully we have the support of Pastoral - so only they can authorise someone to be added or removed.
