Copy Group Policy to another OU

S

Sam Wishka

I have 2 OU's. I have configured the first group policy and tested it on a
domain workstation. Works awesome. Now the other OU will have almost the
EXACT same settings, I don't wanna go through all that again. So here is my
question.

How do I copy a Group Policy from a already configured OU to another OU?

Thanks.
Sam

Hello Sam,

On XP or server 2003 install GPMC and link the policy to the other OU. In
2000 server Open the properties from the OU, Group policy tab and choose
ADD button. Here are all policies listed and you can choose the existing
one for the OU you like.

Hi Meinolf,

Is there a way i can copy a group policy that is applied to an OU and apply
it to another OU. I know i can apply a group policy to several OU's but i
need to be able to edit the GroupPolicy independantly on a test OU without
affecting the original Policy.

Hello Sam,

In GPMC you can also copy an existing GPO. Install Group policy management
console and see what it can do for you.
