Chapter 8: Configuring User and Computer Policies
Chapter 8 Configuring User and Computer Policies
Group policies simplify administration by giving administrators central control over privileges, permissions, and capabilities of both users and computers. You can think of a group policy as a set of rules that helps you manage users and computers. Group policies can be applied to multiple domains, to individual domains, to subgroups within a domain, or to individual systems. Policies that apply to individual systems are referred to as local group policies and are stored on the local system only. Other group policies are linked as objects in the Active Directory service.
In this chapter, you'll learn how to manage group policy settings. The chapter examines policies that you might want to configure in the domain and on local computers. These policies are organized by topic area, such as file and data management. Group policies apply only to systems running Microsoft Windows 2000 and Microsoft Windows XP. (In this book, "Windows XP" refers to Windows XP Professional unless otherwise indicated.) They will also apply to systems running the Windows .NET operating system.
