Michael, Reguarding GPO's, test, Test, TEST! GPO's allow you to make changes to many computers very quickly. This is a good thing, but can have some unwanted consequences. Get the Group Policy Mangement Console from Microsoft. This is a free download that will help tremendously. Microsoft has several good webcasts on utilizing Group Policies. Always have a plan to undo the changes if needed. Expecially if you are creating your own adm templates. Good Luck.

The GPO is a little new to me. 1. Are there any tips about using GPO's I should know ? 2. Any good online how to's or reference material I could read over ? 3. Any major concerns I should know about ? I know this is kind of a open ended e-mail. Thanks Michael
