Default Re: Creating different policies for same user on different computers


SP,

Thanks for writing.
The best way to achieve your goals is to use Loopback Group Policy
Processing.

The way that Loopback works is that any user that logs onto that computer,
would get the user policy defined for that computer if Loopback is turned
on. This would allow for you to have multiple terminal servers, and
policies for each, so that when userA logs into serverA, they get one set of
user policy definitions, and when they log into serverB, they get yet a
different set.

Not knowing your specific environment, I cannot provide specifics on how to
structure your OU's and or policies, but Loopback is definately your answer
to the issue you posed.

Hope this helps!
