All, This is a Windows 2003 DC server question. I want to script the delivery of a new GPO (I am doing this part via GPMC backup and import scripts), my question is how can I link the imported GPO to an OU, using a script. This is not so clear. If this is not the proper list, can you steer me to one.

But maybe I can answer the question you are trying to ask: A domain can only have ONE password policy. Whatever rules you set up in that password policy apply to EVERY ACCOUNT that exists in the domain. The one possible exception may be the machine passwords that AD keeps in synch automatically. I've never really gotten involved with testing a password policy's affect on those. Capish?
