I am not going to be able to help you skin it the way you want via IP. But maybe some alternatives that come to mind may get you where you are going.
Use security filtering on the GPO and only give that specific machine rights to that GPO. So on the scope tab of GPM modify the Security filtering area to only include that machine. Since you mention additional machines later on...I would make a group for this and add the one machine to that group. Then later you add more machines to the group. Or maybe Item level targeting will help you, although I have never used that. Both are discussed here: http://blogs.technet.com/b/grouppolicy/archive/2009/07/30/security-filtering-wmi-filtering-and-item-level-targeting-in-group-policy-preferences.aspx From: Jeff Brown [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Thursday, December 08, 2011 2:54 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: WMI filter help I am trying to create a WMI filter to apply a GPO to a specific IP address. I have been googling and am so far not able to find anything dumbed down enough for me to copy/paste modify and get to work. There is one existing WMI filter here that applies a range of subnets. I have tried modifying that existing filter to point only to the server I am trying to apply the GPO to, it looks like this: Select * FROM Win32_IP4RouteTable WHERE ((Mask='255.255.255.255' AND NextHop='127.0.0.1' OR NextHop='0.0.0.0') AND (Destination Like '10.3..61.1' ) ) Anyone care to offer suggestions or resources? W2k8 R2 server environment. I simply need to create a WMI filter for a GPO that applies to the server at internal address: 10.3.61.1. may need to add others later, but for now the one will do.
