Sorry for the cross post but the Active Directory list is not as active as
the NT Sys Admin list.
Has anyone updated/installed/deployed the new ADMX format GPO's yet? It
appears that once you upgrade the domain to use the new format it can only
be managed from a Vista or Windows 2008 machine. What happens to all of the
existing GPO's do they get converted or are they left alone? I did find the
ADMX migrator but I am not talking about using it at the moment. There
appears to be a one way switch in the Group Policy Mangement mmc that
creates the starter GPO's in the ADMX format. The reading I have done
indicates that once I create these starter GPO's all new GPO's can 1. only
be managed from a Vista or 2008 GPMC and 2. will be in the new ADMX format.
I would like to know from some of you if you have done this and 1. what
happened to the existing GPO's and 2. if you open and edit an existing GPO
does it get converted to the new format?
Thanks for any insight you can offer,
Jon
