I'm just getting my feet wet with GPOs so forgive me if this seems too
obvious.
Here's my understanding of the user versus machine portions of a GPO:
1) The settings that are under the user portion are applied when a user log
in.
2) The settings that are under the machine portion are applied when a
computer is powered on.
So, now come the scenarios and associated questions.
Scenario: I create an OU and for that OU I create a GPO that has some policy
settings under the machine portion.
Question: Will the GPO that I link to the OU only affect computers that I
place in the OU?
Question: Will there be any affect on the users that I place in this OU?
Scenario: I create an OU and for that OU I create a GPO that has some policy
settings under the user portion.
Question: Will the GPO that I link to the OU only affect users that I place
in the OU?
Question: Will there be any affect on the computers that I place in this OU?
Thanks for any input.
