Someone editing your GPO's from a 2K box??? If you haven't seen it, the "Administrative Templates Background" section in the GPMC whitepaper was very enlightening to me. Administrative Templates and Group Policy Object Editor * By default, if the version of the .adm file found on the local computer is newer (based on the time stamp of the file) than the version on the Sysvol, the local version is copied to the Sysvol and is then used to display the settings. This behavior can be controlled by a policy setting. Administrative Templates and GPMC GPMC handles administrative templates for GPOs differently than the Group Policy Object Editor. The change in behavior was a deliberate design decision to simplify the behavior with .adm files, to avoid complications with .adm file version conflicts, and to improve performance in GPMC. To generate a report, GPMC looks by default in the following locations for .adm files: * %Windir%\inf on the local computer where GPMC is running. If an .adm file is found, it is used, regardless of its timestamp. * If the .adm file is not found, GPMC looks in the GPO's folder on SYSVOL -----Original Message----- From: Parker, Edward [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, February 24, 2004 12:41 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [ActiveDir] GPOs and ICF {formatted correctly, sorry) I think I may have partially figured this out.
