i dont' think you're missing anything. i've seen this same behavior with a
policy i had set for software restrictions at the domain level. it had
"blank" proxy settings, and it was overriding the proxy settings i had set
at the users level, and blanking out the proxy settings we had been using.
it almost behaves like it's some security setting that is the "boss".
luckily, with our ou structure, i was able to just turn off the user
settings on that domain level policy. pretty unexpected behavior though.
i would guess that being as you're using a loopback though, that you don't
have users and machines seperated into ou's as we do?
you might just try it on replace mode, and see if that works that's a
pretty strong setting for a policy.

| Subject: [ActiveDir] Internet Explorer Connection Proxy Settings GPO Issue
|
>------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
I have set up a GPO for IE proxy settings at my domain level in a GPO I use
for "suggested" policies that I can later override with OU specific
policies. I am now trying to apply a GPO setting for IE proxies on an OU
with a different proxy setting than the default domain, among other
settings. I have enabled loop back mode (merge) on this GPO, and all other
settings that should be overridden for the computer and user settings are.
I have tried Preference mode and enabling the computer \ administrative
Templates \ internet explorer make proxy settings per computer, but the
domain GPO still wins in application of this setting.
Any Ideas? What am I missing?
