Extend The Limits Of Group Policy
Saturday, 19 August 2006 by Michel Roth
I came across this article some time ago. It's dated at May 2005 and is written by Bill Boswell at Redmondmag.com. This article makes an excellent addition to my "Using Group Policy To Support Custom Applications In Your Environment" article I wrote for MSTerminalServices.org.

Bill discusses the real or perceived limitations in Microsoft's default Group Policies and how you can battle this limitations: "You've certainly worked with Group Policies if you have Windows 2000 or Windows Server 2003 deployed anywhere in your organization (and the clock is ticking on NT4, by the way, in case you haven't yet completed your migration). You've probably customized password policies, locked down a few security settings, instituted a login script and possibly redirected the My Documents folder. However, quite a few of you stop short of getting the full value out of Group Policies because of their perceived limitations."
