Re: Group Policies

Thanks for the reply,

If you have defined settings locally and they are not defined in any
domain/OU Group Policy then the local setting will apply."

What happens if there are some in both local and domain.OU?

For example: Local GPEDIT sets Autoplay off. Domain/OU policy sets desktop
clean up off. Will both settings be in effect or just the local policy?

Many thanks again..

Group Policies are applied in this order and the last applied policy takes
precedence if there are the same settings defined in another Group Policy.
Local>site>domain>OU>child OU. If you have defined settings locally and
they are not defined in any domain/OU Group Policy then the local setting
will apply. For XP Pro you can simply run rsop.msc on the domain computer
to see what Group Policy settings apply to the computer and user and the
GPO that is applying the setting.

If you set group policies on a computer using GPEDIT and then add the
computer to a DOMAIN which also has Group Policies (Group Policy Mgnt
Console) which will be in effect? Will it combine both? Which has
priority?

Many thanks in advance.
