if you want the policy to apply to the entire domain right click the domain in AD Users & Comps and link the policy you have created to that. if you want it to apply to selected users (for example everyone but admins) you can either use the deny option in the security settings of the policy for the persons or group you want excluded or you can create a new organisational unit, move the users/groups to be affected into the OU and then apply the GPO to the OU 'container'. you can also set things like policy inherentance so that you have policies at your site or domain level which apply settings everyone should receive with other policies at the OU level for different groups in your domain. charles The Association of Corporate Treasurers Ocean House 10/12 Little Trinity Lane London EC4V 2DJ tel: +44.(0)20 7213 9728 fax: +44.(0)20 7248 2591 www: http://www.treasurers.org Notice of Confidentiality This e-mail (and any attachments) is intended for the named addressee(s) only.
