Yeah.. got these.. 'War and Peace' is smaller!! (and more straightforward)
I do note in the bastion host .inf file that it does not include any
filesystem protection settings..And some of the settings that are in the
enterprise secure settings files are missing..
Does one have to apply these in sequence? ..
The documents hint that these are 'cumulative' and the lower settings files
are your 'base' starting point.. The fact that some settings are missing in
the bastion file tend me to think that I have to apply others first.
