GPO Question

bmauro

Hey guys - quick question on Group Policy - is it even on 290?

The reason I'm asking is that I don't have much experience with GPO and how they function - and in the Sybex, MS Press, and CBT material I have for 290, there aren't any chapters on Group Policies.

I would just hate to have missed that and it do me in on the test.

Thanks!

I don't think it will be a big topic, if at all. See the skills being tested here:

Group Policy is not directly mentioned anywhere. However, Group Policy may indirectly relate to any of the "manage, administer and maintain" questions you might get asked. Overall, I would recommend having at least a basic understanding of GP and to a lesser extent GPO's, just in case.

Thanks sprkymrk - I have a little over one month to review - and I'll throw in GPOs.

I think a few of the basics can/will be covered. For example, the order in which GPO's are applied and which takes precedence. Also, I would know what The Block Inheritance and the No Override settings do.
