The latter. We just address pain points. *>>How do you go about deciding settings things that _AREN’T_ managed via GPO?* If we want to address them, but they are being handed by something else like a logon script, then they may be eligible for moving to GPO, depending on how involved the change would be. *>>Is that how you folks are addressing client lifecycle configuration and management?* We're addressing all that?!?
