Chris Lynch lynch00@xxxxxxx - -----Original Message----- From: thin-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:thin-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Brian Lilley Sent: Monday, February 23, 2004 10:47 AM To: 'thin@xxxxxxxxxxxxx' Cc: 'windows2000@xxxxxxxxxxxxx' Subject: [THIN] arrghh GPO locked admins out A client of mine was creating a lockdown GPO which he intended to apply to his metaframe servers. The only problem is, he applied to all his users computers, DC's and admins..doh!! Now, he is unable to login to run the GPO MMC to undo the work. I was wondering if there was anyway to get in to undo this work. I guess all this is now in the NTDS.DIT file and there aint much way around it?? Is there an easy ADSI hack to disable this GPO? Is there anything in the SYSVOL directory that can be changed to stop the GPO from being applied?? They are unable to run up AD Users and Computers snap in as this is restricted!!!
