Hi!

We use Windows 2003 Server and today I finished installing AD.

Because our network is a small one (30 WinXP computers, more or less used for same functions) I will make just one OU. What we need is only this:

1) Every user, who logs on to his client machine, should have a mapped drive letter, which would represent his My Documents directory somewhere on the server.

2) I would like to disable or restrict some of the (for the user) non-essential functionalities, on his client computer, such as Control Panel, Monitor setting, prevent changes to Start Menu etc.

I have downloaded the Group Policy Management Console for easyer configuring. Can all of the above written be done in here?

I would realy apprechiate advisment how to do these things or if you could direct me to some HOWTOs or tutorials.

Thanks in advance!

H.

Without a complete course there are only small how to.

I would look at the MS site. They have good little blurbs. I would suggest the help and support along with the help that is on AD users or when in gpo editing.


You are going to also have to learn about profiles.

I wouldn't use anything else other than gpedit.msc or from within AD users under the OU.

Be careful not to put admin in your ou's
