This year Microsoft are now making available for everyone the videos screen cast from the TechEd USA conference on the TechEd web site. So if you attended TechEd USA this year but didn’t get to see all the sessions or if you just missed out on going all together you can now check out all the session at http://www.msteched.com
For your convince I have embedded the Group Policy specific video’s below.
Tom Archer just wrote a blog post about four new sample C# programs that interface with the Group Policy Management Console to perform general group policy tasks in Active Directory. These are some very usefull sample if you are looking at writing your onw applications for automaitcing Group Policy object tasks.
Group Policy Preferences have been out for about 3 years now and so there have been a number web posts about what they are and how they are implemented. So I have created a list of links to other articles that from the Group Policy Team Blog and ohter places that help explain what Preference are and how you can use them in your environemtn.
Group Policy Preferences are a heap of new Group Policy settings that were released with Windows Server 2008 that allows IT administrators to pretty much do anything they want to configured computers in an corporate environmnet. Preferences only require a Windows 2000 Active Directory and they need to be manageded from a minumum of Windows Vista/2008 however they can be applied to Windows XP Service Pack 2 (or greater) workstations.
