I would like to use restricted groups
policies to specifiy local Administrative access to application servers.
I am sure this has already been tried. I would like to know how this worked
or did not work for those who have tried it  and where there any unexpected
gotchas that happened ?

Thank You ! And have a nice day !

The biggest gottcha, is that any existing
group memberships for groups managed by the restricted group policy are overridden
by the restricted group policy “ this is my biggest gripe, I wish they
would merge\append.

Actually, the ideal would be the option to append or
override.

Sometimes you don't care if other's are in a specific
group, as long as a specific set of accounts/groups are in that group. Case in
point is IT shops where the user is granted/required to have local admin.
Ideally, you'd set that user, plus your IT support staff, as local admin.
Without having the option to append, all you can do is override, which means
that one user is then oout.

But then it defeats the purpose of restricted group, as you want to be sure
that, only known members are part of the restricted group. If the operation is
merge than it is not restricted by definition?
When u ask for merge or append, you are doing some group membership
modification. You better use some scripts for that.

I would suggest create a separate group of those app servers, and apply
group policy with restricted group populated as you want.
Make sure Group Policy is applies to that Group of appservers only. it is
must that you Remove "Authenticated Users" group from group policy
security.

I agree it would be better to give that option of append alongwith override.
I assume, they didn't implement, because it is very easy to get the
desired result thru other means like this batch file, which can run
as computer startup script, for intended machines. This works like
append operation.

That's not the same net effect. Those settings are only applied at restart as opposed to being applied every 90 minutes (or whatever your refresh interval is). Its quite possible to remove the perms granted by that script and run like that for months.

Worked like a
charm!

You have the possibility to use
Member option and/or memberof option

Using the member option you
ENFORCE (or replace) which objects (users/groups) are a member of a group. If
you add an object as a member of the group and it is not on the restricted
groups list, it will be removed again by the system

Using the memberof option you
just tell the system (merge with existing) to add the object to the group
specified and it will still be allowed to be a member of other groups that are
not specified in the list


Cheers,
Jorge

Yeah we need a good search mechanism for this list, this
was discussed nearly to death last year or the year before when that
functionality change was introduced.

That would help, I searched the archive
and found only a little info.
I knew this more than likely was previously
discussed.

Thank You ! And have a nice day !
