Re: GPO Help

Thanks for the reply. I guess my confusion is when I should use Security Groups and when I should use AD structures. Would I be correct in thinking of Security Groups for Folder Security and AD structures for Group Policy? SBS uses the "domain.local\MyBusiness" container for all of its wizards when adding computers and users. Under MyBusiness, there is "Computers, Distribution Groups, Security Groups, and Users". Under Computers, there are "Computers" and "Servers". Under Users, there is "SBSUSers". From your suggestion, should I create a "Shop PCs" OU under Computers and a "Shop Users" OU under SBSUsers and link my GPO to both OUs? Thanks again for the help...
