Chrome Group Policy

I'm helping someone deploy Google Chrome to a small business on the side. It keeps me in the loop. It's a 08 controller, Windows 7-64 client.

They want a few machines to access only a certain a few sites. Basically make sure the people at the front don't surf the net all day.

There is an internet explorer setting that works perfect.. Computer - Policies - Windows Settings - IE Maintenance - Connection/Proxy. There is "Enable Proxy Settings" and can point to like 0.0.0.0 and there is an Exception slot to allow domains to passthrough.

Is there something like this for Chrome's ADMX template?

I see there is Computer Config - Policies - Admin Template - Google/Google Chrome... Allow access to a list of URLs as an exception to the blacklist. The blacklist is easy. It's just *

Unfortunately it blocks everything and the exceptions don't work. Has the happened to anyone before?

Thanks
Mike

Okay I figured it out yesterday.

General blacklist / whitelist doesn't work very well it seems.

Here is how I got it working.
Computer Config - Policies - Admin Template - Google - Google Chrome - Proxy Server.

Proxy rules bypass = enable
*site.com,*otherSite.com,subdomain.evenOtherSite.com

Choose how to specify proxy server settings = enable
Set to "Use fixed proxy servers"

Address or URL of proxy server = enable
0.0.0.0
