Subject: [ActiveDir] OU and GPO Design Comments


> I'm interested in feedback on the following OU and GPO design.
>
> Simple OU structure, something like:
>
> |--Branches
>         |--Users
>         |--Computers
>
> The "Users" OU would hold around 5000 users and the "Computers" OU an
equal
> amount of workstations and servers.
>
> GPO's would be created for the users and linked to the OU, but only
applied
> to certain global groups that the users would be members of.  Similar for
> the computers.  There would be an "All Users" and "All Computers" GPO with
> global settings, then more granular GPO's for departmental specific
settings.
>
> Almost all administration would be done centrally, so there should be
> little need for delegation.
>
> This seems like it should be simple and effective, but we haven't tried it
> real-world, so I'm curious if people have any thoughts on possible
> gotcha's, issues, etc.
