Re: Domain Policy

Hi Steven,

I can't get on the Registry locally on the server as well. But can do it
remotely from another server, which is not a Domain Controller. I tried
searching my policy in there, but couldn't find it in there. Is there any
other place I can find it?

Thanks for your help.

Best Regards,

Shabbir

Try logging onto a domain computer [non critical workstation] as domain
admin and see if you can run regedit or if you can run a tool called Dial a
Fix from a flash drive or such as it can detect and remove many Group Policy
restrictions. If that works then you can use MMC snapin for Group Policy to
manage the Group Policy on a domain controller to make changes to undo the
harm. Otherwise if you can use regedit look for and delete the Group Policy
restrictions seen under the keys listed below which will buy you time to
make changes to Group Policy.

I have had set up a policy to block all users with any rights other then
the
basic ones. But by mistake I have had applied to all, instead of the
group,
and now I can do any changes to it myself, even though I am logged in as
the
Administrator.

Is there any way, I can get it reset back to original. I don't have access
to my local drives or command prompt or AD or anything right now.

Any help would be really appreciated.

Best Regards,

Shabbir
