Group Policy basics

2008-02-22 by Jason

Currently, my knowledge regarding group policy objects is pretty limited, but it’s enough to get me by. Part of the current project of learning and taking ownership of Group Policy Objects will lead to a class coming up. This is what I know so far:

Under the command prompt, to force the group policy to re-apply:
gpupdate /force

To write out to a text file what group policy is being applied:
gpresult /z > c:gp.txt

Another way to see what group policy is being applied or if there are any errors is through the Resultant Set of Policy, or RSoP:
Start, Run: rsop.msc

Looking forward to learning much more and posting this here as a basic amount of knowledge related to GPO and a source to compare with my future knowledge.
