Applying Policy

Hi,

I have created a policy and added users and groups to it.
I've decided that I wanted to make the policy computer specific and not
user/group?
When I remove the user/groups from the policy "security" and replace it with
the computer instead, the policy doesn't apply?
I use Windows 2000 Server.
Any ideas?

Where did you create it?

First: You create policies and need to link them to a Organizational
Unit (OU). Only the objects *in* this OU will apply the policy you
linked to it: the users/user objects will apply the
UserConfiguration-policies and the computers will apply the
ComputerConfiguration-policies.

So if you want to apply a computer-policy, make sure, that your policy
is a computerconfiguration-policy and that you link it to a OU in which
your target computers reside.

cheers,

Florian
 
Is there a local policy I can use (Windows 2000 Pro) to resistrict access to
certain programs?
