Changes in Longhorn and Group Policy Architecture: Glenn Weadock, Global Knowledge Instructor and Course Developer, MCSE, MCSA, A+

Tags:
network security

Overview Now that Longhorn technology (in the dual garb of Windows Vista and the Longhorn Server) has arrived on the scene, many network planners are taking a closer look at some of the architectural changes that Microsoft has made to the Group Policy structure. The underlying concept of Group Policy hasn't changed - it's still fundamentally a Great Big Network Registry Editor. Make a setting, and Group Policy enforces it for the user from that point forward. (Of course, Group Policy goes beyond Registry settings to include a variety of security and software installation capabilities, too.).
