Hi - Hope you can assist.

We setup apps to be deployed via GPO in-
Computer Configuration | Software Settings
(ie. WindowsMessenger is setup there in a GPO)

For each application, we apply a security group so we can deploy this
application by membership of this security group.
(ie. GG-WindowsMessenger)

What I want to know is, is there a tool that I can use to view all the
objects that are will be applied as a result of this security group
membership.

RSoP -- in All Tasks of AD Users and Computers when a User or
Computer is selected.

(ie. Open a tool, select the security group GG-WindowsMessenger, and
it can show me (hopefully in a rsop.msc window) all GPO objects that
are applied as a result)

Not that way but RSoP can do it. Take a User (or create one for this
purpose) and do RSoP in PLANNING mode -- use the options to
pretend the user is a member of the Group (or in an OU, or Site, etc)
and then do the RSoP.



I've tried using GMPC's Group Policy modeling, but I cannot see the
software applied. Maybe I'm not using this tool correctly?- Hide quoted text -

Hi - Thanks for the reply.

I have tried this, but not all software that is to be installed appear
in the RSoP (running in Planning mode). Ie. Software from GPO_A
appears, but not from GPO_B. I definitely know the security is correct
coz i can assign that security group to a machine and it will deploy
that application upon a reboot.

When running the RSoP command, i'm selecting the same machine and
using the default values, therefore there should not be any difference
between RSoP planning mode and physically rebooting that box to
receive the apps.

It looks like RSoP is timing out. Can you increase the length of time
for RSoP to run? Maybe not all GPOs are getting processed.

Can you isolate only a particular GPO to be processed respective to
the applied security groups?

Thanks for your assistance...
