This my default is a container not an OU, so the GPO does not apply. Mark -----Original Message----- From: Frank Abagnale <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: Wed, 5 Oct 2005 00:46:53 To:[email protected] Subject: RE: [ActiveDir] AD Question for your peers-GPO
I have exactly that, a Servers OU and a Clients OU which I put my Workstations/Servers into. But the default OU I am talking about is where all the computers go to when they are first added to the domain. They are then manually moved to the respective OU once a week. thanks anyway [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Easiest way: put the servers in one OU and the non-servers in another OU. Then create one policy for each OU. There are other ways, like adding the servers to a security group and filtering your policy by group membership. The separate OU formula is easier - IMO.

These two groups do not contain the same users. Now, I want to ensure that when I set a Restricted Policy, only the WSAdmins are listed in the Local Admins group on the Workstations and SVRAdmins is only a member of the local Administrators group on the Servers in the default OU Is this possible? From how I see it, if a restricted group is set on an OU, then any computer which is a member of this OU receives this setting. Sorry, this has always confused me, which is why I went for the scripted option on startup. thanks Frank [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Correct.

Here's a short reply I posted on another list a while back. Another option is to use the "MemberOf" option in a "Restricted Groups" GPO. Say the group is called GrpA and you want it to be a member of the administrators group in every client in ClientsOU. You will create and apply a group policy to ClientsOU. In that policy, you will create a restricted group object, by adding GrpA. Then in the properties, you will choose the "this group is a member of:" and type in "administrators". By doing the above, the existing members of the "administrators" group are not removed. The process will simply append GrpA to the membership list on "administrators".
