Proxy settings per machine..?

I need to be able to set the internet proxy address on an XP workstation to
be the same regardless of logs onto it. Our users have different proxy
addresses set through GPO User Configuration so I need that to be ignored.

I see a setting 'Make proxy settings per machine, rather than per user' in
computer config GPO (perfect solution?!) but how do I set the proxy address I
want the machine to use?

Use the following:

REG ADD "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings" /V ProxySettingsPerUser /T REG_DWORD /F /D 0
REG ADD "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings" /V ProxyEnable /T REG_DWORD /F /D 1
REG ADD "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings" /V ProxyOverride /T REG_DWORD /F /D 1
REG ADD "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings" /V ProxyServer /T REG_SZ /F /D "192.168.0.1"


REG.EXE is built into Windows XP, Windows Server 2003, and later operating systems, or installed from the
Windows 2000 Support Tools on the Operating System CD-ROM.
