I mentioned earlier that I’m using a loginscript to sync the pac files to the local drive, but didn’t upload it at the time. Here it is anyhow – it’s probably not the most elegant solution, nor the one with least code; but it works for me. Used with a GPO that sets the path locally, it’s a fairly flexible way of controlling internet access.

Basically, you call it like this:

fileupdater.vbs /i:input.txt /o:target.txt

The locations can be anything the vbScript FileSystemObject is able of accessing with the credentials running it – both local drives and unc-paths.

fileupdater.vbs
I also use the script to push any changes in the PAC file into the netlogon directory (runas domain admin):

C:\scripting>fileupdater.vbs /v /i:C:\conf\proxy.pac /o:\\%USERDNSDOMAIN%\netlogon\proxypriv.pac
