Small Business Server 2000 issue

When Small Business Server 2000 is deployed, it automatically sets workstations to use the server as an internet proxy because you would be expected to use the Proxy Server built into SBS 2000. However, in most installations a NAT router is used instead. Unfortunately, SBS2000 will still occasionally set the workstations to use the server as a proxy, preventing access to the internet.

Although this can be manually corrected on each workstation by removing the proxy settings in Internet Explorer, what is the best way to fix this issue permanently?
 
You could just use a group policy to set the proxy settings to "automatically detect" or somesuch. I haven't worked with SBS 2000 in about 2 years, but I think there was a way to remove the proxy service from being installed in the setup.
 
If the server is running DHCP then you need to edit the gateway so and set it to the router so that all the work stations know at the time they are give there IP.

Oppps I re-read and see the proxy thing. Yeah a GPO is a good idea
