Hey All,

Has anyone come across issues with using restricted groups within the
Default Domain Controllers GPO to configure membership of EA and DA?

In the end it will work, but won't that cause all DCs to make the change to domain groups targeted at (almost) the same time and therefore causing unneeded repl traffic

wouldn't it be better to have a GPO to leverage restricted groups for AD groups on the PDC FSMO ONLY for example?
