Re: What the "Local Group Policy" definition?



Local Group Policy is the built in Group Policy for that computer and can be
edited via gpedit.msc and by default it applies to ALL users that logon to
the computer. However settings defined in local Group Policy will be
overridden by any domain level Group Policy that has the same settings
defined for domain users for user configuration settings. Running rsop.msc
on the computer can be helpful in determining Group Policy settings applied
and from what GPO if the computer is also a domain member.

I need some clarification. What is the local group policy defined as? Is
that a change that is applied to the local server or pc by an admin user?
For
example- let's say the admin logs into the server as a user with local
admin
rights. They then make changes to the proxy settings and also the trusted
sites. Is that considered local goup policy? Is the "local group
policy"seperate from the GPO's that are supposed to be appplied?

The reason I ask is we have 2 Citrix servers where users log in to.
Server
1 will apply a "Local group policy" for trusted sites, but server 2 will
not
apply a "local group Policy"- and so users have trouble with IE settings
if
they are directed to log into server 2. Neither server will apply the
Citrix
loopback policy that has the same trusted sites settings.

Any help is greatly appreciated!
