Re: Copy GPO

In Group Policy Management Console (GPMC), all the GPOs select the "Group Policy Obects", right click, select "Back Up All...".
Or, if you just want to "export" some of them, select the ones you want to "export" in the right pane, right click, select "Back Up...".
In GPMC in the other domain, you can import the settings from a GPO backup into a new, empty GPO, or Restore the GPO from the backup folder. You can use a "migration table" to automate changing some things that are different between the forests/domains.
Alternatively, you can add the destination forest to the GPMC (right click the root - "Group Policy Management" in the left pane, select Add Forest...), then you can use "Copy" and "Paste" to copy a GPO from one forest to another.
This is described in the Help (Group Policy Management; How To...; Back Up, Restore, Copy, and Import; Copy a Group Policy) for GPMC. See also the Help section about scripting Group Policy tasks (there are some pre-built sample scripts installed with GPMC).

It is perfectly useless to know the right answer to the wrong question.
