I'm looking for a doc explaining all GPO settings, I found one for SP2
with admin templates. is there one for all settings?

thanks.
 
Hi Rick,

I think you have already found that the spread sheet you have with the .ADM
template settings is only part of the Group Policy description you are
looking for. .ADM tempalte settings are pretty deep, there is a lot of stuff
there but it can be unwieldy and often unmanageable. I think with XP SP2
there are about 1600 settings in the default templates.

The descriptions of all other Group Policy settings are scattered through a
ton of different docs. Secruity Settings, Folder Redirection policy,
Software Install Policy, Wireless, IPSec... etc. etc. etc...

Take a look at the main Microsoft Group Policy page...
Take a look at the Grouppolicy.editme.com
Check out Jeremy Moskowitz's book on Group Policy and Intelli-mirror
technologies (www.gpanswers.com)
Derek Melber wrote a three part Group Policy e-book that you can find on our
website at http://www.desktopstandard.com

There are a ton of places to look and I am sure eventually you will find all
you need. Unfortunately I don't know of one comprehensive book that lists
all Group Policy features. And the list gets longer and longer because
companies like mine keep adding great value on top of the Group Policy
framework.

Hi,

My website goes over the group policies. However, I haven’t updated it
for the new SP2 settings yet. http://www.sd61.bc.ca/windows2000
