RE: Group Policies

Hi i assume you have active directory in place then group policies are the
way to go, however it gets tricky when you want certain policies to apply to
certain security groups. Your best bet would be to organise your different
groups into different OU's in AD and link gpo's to the OU's. Thats partly
what they are there for. If reorganising AD is not an option you can link
gpo's to OU's and deny certain security groups the permission to apply the
gpo (its in the ACL of the gpo), however this gets tricky if members belong
to several groups.

Hello,

I have looked into the group policy to set things like which drives users
can see and which things appear on the start menu and such, but I can't
figure out how to customize it on a group level. I.E. My power uses should
be able to see C: drive for instance, but standard users should not be able
to see C: drive at all. Power uses can have access to Internet exployer
while others users should not. How can I canfigure this things on a per
group basic and not a per computer.

Thanks
