Oh, and does it even support control of membership in Domain Groups?  It didn't 
in the past...does it now in 2008 R2?

Should pick it up at the next gp refresh interval. It does not require a 
reboot. If you do a gpupdate without a reboot they will pop right in.  Do you 
have 'members' and 'members of' straight in your head and set up right?  That 
is the tricky part that sometimes makes my brain hurt.

Subject: Using Restrictive Groups to lockdown membership to certain groups in AD

TO the list,

I would like to use the Restrictive Groups Setting in Windows 2008 R2 SP1 
DFL/FFL to lock the settings of specific groups to what I want them to be ( 
Namely DA and Administrators and a few others specific groups, to meet audit 
requirements)

What I have done so far.

Created a Test group, and added users to it in AD, then created the GPO and 
specified the users I wanted in the group, and then linked it at the root of my 
accounts domain ( no Override is set)

Then I went into AD, and added a new user to the group, that is the target of 
lockdown ( which is what I am trying to prevent via GPO, any new members adding 
to the group either if DA, ADMIn or otherwise, so I can have a level of 
assurance that there isn't going to be elevation of privilege going forward.

Is this all that needs to be done, and how long after a change would the GPO 
take effect to set it back to membership in the first place?
Has others on the list done it in a different fashion or updated their default 
domain controllers policy or default domain policy to accomplish this?

TIA,
EZ
