Possible to group Group Policy Objects?
Hi,
We have five different sites over a WAN. All sites connect to the same domain.
Where we push software etc out to sites from local servers we need a policy for each task for each site.
This means that the list of policies in the 'Group Policy Objects' folder in the GPO management is huge. Current count is 43 + 5 more to come for wsus.
I cant see any way when i had a look but is there any way to add folders inside the group policy object section?
Many thanks,
Dan

22nd November 2012, 01:42 PM #2 Don't think so but I do it by naming convention;
Software - global - <name>
Software - Mathis - <name>
Workstations - ...
Servers - ....
Users - pupils - ...
Users - staff - ...
Etc
That way everything is grouped anyway
