Yeah Usually I was just importing it via REG file in Windows 2003 and prior. I am going to play with the GPO to make this happen accordingly, and just link it to the OU the servers in question are in accordingly, and be done with it. I just need to make sure it works across Windows 2000/2003/2008/2008R2 from the GPO's in Windows 2008 R2 FFL/DFL domain.

We have the legal notice set for our Win2k8 / Win2k8 R2 servers (via GPO rather than local policy) without needing to do any tweaks that I'm aware of. Cheers Ken From: Ziots, Edward [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Thursday, 2 December 2010 8:45 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: RE: Legal Notice and Caption not taking on Windows 2008 R2 system Thanks, I basically did it via the local GPO, but I also need to get this on my DC's etc etc, therefore going to work on doing up a GPO today to apply accordingly. Always something new and fun with Win2k8 R2.. Z Edward E.

A number of registry keys (that were accessible in WS2K8 and earlier) are locked down in R2 by use of the TrustedInstaller account (TrustedInstaller has FC on the registry key, and administrators only have read access). Jeffrey had to use the SourceForge setacl utility to script a workaround for some registry edits that he wanted to make, basically to take ownership of the key, grant write permission to the current user account, do the registry import, and then undo the changes using setacl again.

It seems that the import doesn't work by clicking on the reg file, basically says something is wrong with it. But I actually loaded it from another X64 R2 system accordingly. Z Edward E.

I have added it to the Local GPO, there is nothing higher GPO wise overriding it, and I ran a gpupdate /force after adding it accordingly. Any ideas? Z Edward E.
