I want to have a group policy that only installs Adminpak on 1 computer!! How do i specify only that computer gets that Adminpak installed on it so other computers do not also get it? Authenticated users includes all computers, i just want 1 particular computer to install it on, so i don't have to always go to the server to do some changes.

You don't need a policy. Login to the computer and install the software.

This is a W2K domain environment! I want to have Adminpak installed via group policy, but only on 1 computer (other than on the server), how do i filter the group policy specifically to that 1 computer?

Authenticated users refers to all users and computers! (so that won't work)

Give a person a fish, they eat for a day. Suggest they internet search and they learn a skill for a lifetime.

I made a group and put all the computers that i wanted to have the software installed into that group. Applied the read/apply to this, but the policy never got applied. When i put the computers back into there default containers removed the group and re-added authenticated users as the ACE, the policy worked, but all the other computers that i did not want to have the software also got it.
I put this GPO just below the default domain policy. I thought if i put all the objects (computers) that i wanted to be effected by the GPO in a group and applied read and apply permissions on it, the policy would work?? If the objects were users in the group it works, but why not for computers in the group?
I don't want to individually filter the GPO by adding each individual computer that i want effected by this GPO, there has to be a way to put the computers in a group.
