Phil - Your question about this problem is a good one. I also experienced the
exact same thing. I had placed a few web sites into the "Trusted Sites" in the
GPO and wham! I could no longer see the GPO, in my GPMC. I also could not see
any of my users when I did an RSOP. I searched the internet with very little
help except that many others were having the same issue. I finally came across
a bit of help, check out the solution I found:
Trusted Sites Problem
• When I apply ‘Trusted Sites’ policy to the GPO: User Configuration /
Windows Settings / Internet Explorer Maintenance / Security, the GPO will not
show up on the MMC. Also I cannot see any GPO settings for any users who have
this policy applied to their user configuration.
• As soon as I remove the policy, the user configurations show up fine.
• I am testing another way to add to the ‘Trusted Sites’, by using: User
Config\Admin Templates\Windows Components\Internet Explorer\Internet Control
Panel\Security Page\
Policy: Site to Zone Assignment List
Any site you add to the list with a value to 2, with be in the trusted sites
zone.
This actually works. Hopefully this will work for you.
