How to apply policies to all sub-groups?

faygate

Been wondering for weeks why my client computers haven't been picking up my policies and it turns out that even if you set the policy at the top of the group any sub-groups underneath do not automatically get the same policies. Fine if you've got a small setup, not so great if you're syncing with a complicated Active Directory structure.

Does anyone know how to do this in Enterprise Console 4.0 or even with an SQL script? Can't find an option anywhere which I think is a bit lame.

    I just read this thread and died a little inside.

    I've got the same scenario - AD is synced in with lots of little OUs with rooms of PCs in each. Each OU has four policy items to enable, and I've got about 50 OUs to change...

    Anyway, maybe a nice workaround (probably easier to implement) would be the ability to multiple-select the OUs, and change a whole load at once. That would make my life a lot simpler - additionally, the ability to set the default for a new OU (possibly based on location). So if a new one pops up from AD, it'll be pre-set with all the right settings.

    Now off to click lots of times. :smileysad:
