Exporting/Saving GPO for TS moving to new domain

[Guest melickas@yahoo.com]

We have a Windows 2003 R2 Server that is a Terminal Server in a

SBS2000 domain. We are replacing the SBS2000 Server with a SBS2003

Server. In the SBS2000 domain/AD, we created an OU for the TS and

created a GPO to lock it down for the TS Clients. We are going to move

this TS into the SBS2003 domain (which has a different server & domain

name from SBS2000) but we want to keep the GP we created for the TS.

How can we do that?

 

Thanks

Download the Group Policy Management console from Microsoft and this

will allow to do exactly what you described.

We saw this download, but it is only compatible with Windows 2003

Server or XP. So can we put it on the TS mentioned above even though

it is not the DC? Or should we use an XP workstation?

 

Also, what will happen to the policy since the domain name changed?

 

Thanks again

Sorry, we did not read the description for the download correctly. In

a test environment we have it installed on an XP and can view the

forest of a SBS2000 domain. This test environment does not have a TS

in an OU to experiment with. We trying to find the export function, to

export the Default Domain Policy since that is all we have to

experiment with.

 

Thanks

You can backup the GPO and then import it into the new environment.
