6. Locking Down the Host

Use the PROXY Pro Host lock-down feature to set individual settings to permanent values.
 
u   "Lock Host settings"
u   "Unlock Host settings"
 
The lock-down feature differs from setting permissions in several ways:
 
u   Settings lock-down is granular. Individual settings can be locked down. The security features work on groups of settings, not individual ones.
u   Settings lock-down is permanent. Once a setting is locked down, it cannot be changed again (without resetting the entire lock-down). The security features control who can change different groups of settings, but do not restrict the specific changes that are allowed.
u   Settings lock-down is extremely secure. Because of the security applied to the registry key, only members of the authorized administrative group can remove the lock-down. If the group is a domain-level group, local administrators of a computer cannot change the lock-down policy.
