Hi Bob,

"Should" work. :-(

Try changing permissions on a policy and watch the policy folder
permissions change accordingly.

How many domain controllers do you have? 

Is dsa/gpedit connected to the same DC where you changed permissions?

Regards,

Rick

I tried just changing the perms on the Sysvol copy of the GPO and it did
not work.  I will however, deny the apply setting in the future. Thanks
for the reply.

Hi Robert,
 
The access permissions you're playing with are in large just file access
permissions, at least when you deny access.
 
If you look at the properties of your TS policy, will see it's get its
unique "name", (eg {5BF1F1C5-31A7-4AA7-9F87-2A7ACAB64FFE}). Write down
the first 5-6 digits. 
 
Now go to %logonserver%\sysvol\%your_AD_domain_name%\policies. You'll
see a whole bunch of folders with what look like classids. Each one is a
group policy in your domain. If you highlight the folder with the same
name as your TS policy and look at its security properties, you'll be
able to re-enable domain admin access.
 
In future though, its far less dangerous to just to either untick the
"Apply Group Policy" box or tick the deny "Apply Group Policy" box for
user groups that don't want the policy applied.
 
regards,
 
Rick

Okay I think we have screwed up big time and I am hoping someone can
help me fix it.  We enabled loopback processing on the GPO for our TS
boxes.  To prevent the admins from getting the policy we denied
permissions to the domain admins group.  I had read somewhere that it
was the way to prevent the policy from being applied to the admins.
Anyway my worst fears were realized when I tried to edit said GPO,
denied!  Listed as inaccessible.  Is there any way for me to reset the
permissions and be able to edit this policy again without deleting it
and starting over (not even sure I can delete it)?  Help
