    Local machine policy will apply to all logons unless they are explicitly
    overridden at site/domain/OU level. Local accounts will also be effected by
    local policy even local administrator. You're better off limiting
    restrictions locally (unless you want them to apply to everyone) and lock
    things down at the OU level.

    Subject: GPO for one machine

    I have one machine setup with Terminal Server. I have setup a limited
    desktop using a policy (GPO). I want to be able to have domain admins login
    and get all menus/programs, while the rest of the users get the limited
    desktop. As I have it now whenever anyone logs in to the box they all get
    the limited desktop no matter if they are a domain admin. How do I fix this?
    I have set it up so it only applies to this machine (loopback) and the
    domain admins security box is set not to apply group policy.
