GPO issue

[Sabir Ahmedi]

Hi all,
I am trying to copy policies from one OU to another. There is no easy
way to do it, but I found articles telling me how to 'rig it'. Ive tried
what they said but things seem to intermittently work and not work.

Was wondering if any of you knew of a way to easily
copy a GPO for an OU to another OU WITHOUT simply linking them. In other
words, each OU MUST have a different GPO because each OU gets a
different desktop/start menu/logon printer script.

Thanks all,
Sabir.

Hi Sabir-

Are you looking to create multiple GPOs with similar settings, then link the
copies to new OUs? If so, you should be able to export the group policy
effective or local settings as a template from within the SECPOL.MSC
(Start->Run->SECPOL.MSC).

Please repost if I've misunderstood what you're tryng to do.
